Common Challenges Couples Face

Relationships can become strained for many reasons:

  • Communication breakdowns
  • Frequent arguments about daily tasks or parenting
  • Loss of emotional or physical intimacy
  • Trust issues, including infidelity or secrecy
  • Stress from finances, work, or extended family dynamics
  • Differences in values, priorities, or life goals

Unresolved, these challenges can lead to resentment and distance. Counseling provides a safe space to address them constructively.


How Marriage & Relationship Counseling Helps

In counseling, you and your partner will learn to:

  • Communicate effectively without escalating conflict
  • Understand each other’s needs and love languages
  • Rebuild trust after betrayal or disconnection
  • Strengthen intimacy and emotional closeness
  • Work as a team in parenting, finances, and daily life
  • Break negative cycles and replace them with healthy patterns

I use evidence-based approaches including:

  • Gottman Method Couples Therapy
  • Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for couples
