"It takes two to tango"

There are many reasons why people seek couples counseling. Some of the most common reasons are lack of intimacy, trust, communication and sex. You may argue a lot, stop talking to each other at all or feel that you are not being heard and understood by your partner.

Couples therapy can help you to communicate without blaming your partner - so you can both see each other's perspective and develop a deeper understanding and compassion for each other and the situation. After all, feelings such as disappointment, longing or vulnerability are often hidden under criticism, withdrawal or accusations. When these emotions are allowed to be seen and named, space is created for genuine encounters and change.

We will work on the immediate issues, using your past to understand what is going on in the present. Previously learned dysfunctional communication and relationship patterns may be standing in the way of a healthy and positive encounter with your partner today.
