Services for Couples
Satisfying
and close relationships are vital to our emotional and physical
well-being, yet they can present many challenges. Many of us may face
times when we feel misunderstood, distant, or unsupported by our
partners. We may experience lack of intimacy or unresolved arguments
that leave us feeling lonely, frustrated, and sad. We may become stuck
in habitual ways of dealing with emotions and engaging with our
partners that result in distress or hopelessness.Our psychologists can help you build
stronger bonds and improve communication so your relationship is more
fulfilling and connected. We will help you discover what is most
important to both of you and support you in exploring your thoughts and
feelings to move forward and take the steps required to create lasting
change.
Our competent and compassionate professionals have years of experience
helping couples improve their relationships. Working together with your
psychologist, you will learn powerful ways to enhance your relationship
based on the collaborative principles of emotionally-focused therapy
(EFT) and/or the Gottman Method. These short-term, evidenced-
based couples treatments will help you to:
● Become more aware of your
thoughts and feelings and how these affect communicating with, and responding to, your partner
● Identify the key patterns in your
relationship and how these may get in the way of having a satisfying connection
● Create new experiences that
promote safety and security in your relationship
● Learn more positive ways to communicate and manage conflict
● Experience new patterns of
interacting that allow your relationship to become healthier and more
rewarding for both of you.
The first step toward feeling better is for you both to meet with your
psychologist so that he or she can better understand your unique
situation and needs. In subsequent sessions, your psychologist will
guide and support you through the process of better understanding your
relationship, responses, and interaction patterns. Investing in
your relationship through learning and experiencing new ways of
interacting can bring you closer together and improve your life. Let us
help your partnership grow and thrive.
