Couples and Family Therapy

Couples counseling provides services to two people who are in a relationship. Marital counseling, pre-marital counseling, and co-parenting counseling, all fall under the umbrella of couples counseling.

Pre-marital counseling prepares a couple by discussing and planning for critical moments in a marriage. There is a strong focus on building communication skills. Topics of discussion may include financial planning, family planning, religion/spiritual practices, and or conflict management techniques.

Co-parenting counseling provides parents and/or guardians with collaborative parenting strategies that facilitate a positive upbringing for the children involved. This includes unmarried parents who are no longer in a relationship, separated or divorced parents, or grandparents, foster parents, or aunts/uncles who have custody of children and are trying to co-parent with biological parents.

We provide services for court-ordered co-parenting counseling. However, it is important to identify if you were ordered to attend mediation or counseling. If you were ordered to attend mediation, likely that the court requires the utilization of a court-approved mediator. You can usually find a list on the county court’s website.

Family therapy focuses on interpersonal conflict within members of the family unit. The goal of family therapy is not to target one specific member of the family. Effective treatment focuses on the overarching concerns of the family unit while considering the individual needs of each participant. Family therapy may overlap with other types of therapy.

For instance, if a member of the family is suffering from an addiction, it may be appropriate for the addicted member to attend individual therapy AND family therapy to address the impact of the addiction on the family while strengthening the support network all around. Family therapy also provides services to clients who may be trying to adapt to other medical or mental health diagnosis (cancer, terminal illnesses, autism, schizophrenia, etc.).

Therapy services help clients examine each section of the perspective triangle to gain a well-rounded view of the conflict and possible solutions.

Intimacy and Relationship Issues

Intimacy problems widely occur behind a variety of closed doors. Conflicts may include a loss of harmony between the sheets, a lack of sexual desire between either partners or failure in communication. There are often psychological factors that may contribute to a sexual disorder such as erectile dysfunction, or a lowered desire after a new mother has given birth. Intimacy issues are common, but if one or more become severe and there is no resolution in sight, it may be time to seek therapy for guidance.
