Marriage Counseling

Marriage Counseling

Marriages don't usually break in one big moment. They wear down through hundreds of small ones: the missed bid, the eye-roll, the silent dinner, the same fight on a different night.

What we work on

Communication, conflict, intimacy, trust ruptures, parenting differences, and the long, quiet drift that can happen when life gets busy. We work with couples in early disconnection, in serious crisis, and in the in-between where one partner is more ready than the other.

How sessions are structured

Most couples meet weekly for 50 or 75 minutes. We hold the room with structure so the harder conversations don't tip into the same spiral they do at home. Between sessions you'll have small experiments to try, not homework worksheets, but real-life moves.

Modalities

Our marriage work draws primarily from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and the Gottman Method, layered with the relational and attachment training the team specializes in.
