Couples often have different ways they parent or wish to parent their children. There are times where this creates tension and strain in the relationship. If this strain is not addressed, the parenting issues will only further cause damage to the household.

A relationship is a bond between two people, where they share emotional and physical experiences. When that bond is threatened, it is devastating to a relationship. This type of hurt can lead to further breakdown of communication and drain the safety in the relationship. This is an injury to the relationship that will only grow if not treated.
In marriage counseling, we will work to create understanding around this injury to the relationship. Their is so much pain around what happened that it can be helpful to have a counselor help you both through the healing. Being able to slow down and talk about the injury without spinning out into anger, confusion, sadness, and hurt is where the healing starts.
Marriage counseling is conducted with both of you in the session. There may be times the counselor will request to do an individual session with one or both of you. This would help focus on specific issues/experiences or work on building communication skills for the couples’ session.
The second and third session will be individual sessions for each of you. This is standard practice for both marriage and couples counseling. This will be to gather personal history and experience in the relationship.
Sessions are $165 for 50 minutes. For some couples, longer sessions work better, in which you can schedule longer session times.
