Whether you are a newlywed or have been married for 30 years, all relationships hit rough patches sometimes. It can be extremely discouraging when you feel like you’re having the same fights over and over again without making any progress. Many couples know what the issue is between them but they don’t know how to work through it on their own. This is where we can help.
Our couples therapists work from an attachment framework because we feel that it is the most effective approach for long-term romantic relationships. Attachment refers to the deepest and most connecting bonds that we create with our loved ones. When we work with couples, we help them identify problematic patterns they are engaging in, what they and their partner are doing to contribute to the pattern, and, most importantly, some of the deepest fears we have that determine our behavior in relationships.
Common therapeutic issues include:
- Relationship distress
- Sexual difficulties
- Infidelity
- Life transitions
- Constant fighting
Many people wonder when is the right time to start couples therapy. We believe that if you’re thinking about it, it’s the right time. We know how much your relationship means to you. The things we care most about are the things that are worth investing in.
