Communication is a very common issue for couples. Connection is another issue that I hear about from many couples. These two ingredients are crucial for a relationship to stay vibrant and healthy. It is a foundation feeling a sense of connection and being loved.
Feeling emotionally safe and secure in your relationship is a cornerstone as well. It is a basic human need. Emotional or physical affairs are damaging to a relationship, but it is possible to rebuilt trust and create a transparent and better relationship.
Everyday stress and larger issues such as grief, loss and trauma affect relationships. As well as individual well being issues such as anxiety or depression affect relationships as well .
I use the following treatment modalities, tailoring to the individual couple as to what they most need:
Gottman Method
Emotionally Focused Therapy
Family Systems
Prepare / Enrich
Solution Focused Therapy
Special Note: When a relationship shows signs of addiction, emotional, physical or sexual abuse, and/or severe depression, seek guidance from a therapist immediately, for your safety and your partner.
