 Relationship Counseling

Picture
What can be addressed in relationship counseling:
  • Breach of trust
  • Intimacy Concerns
  • Parenting Issues
  • Communication Issues
  • Conflict Resolution
  • Unmet needs
  • Something just feels wrong even if you can't quite say what or why
  • There is something one of you wants or needs but haven't been able to tell their partner or partners

Relationship Counseling is available for couples, throuples/triads, or whatever polyamorous constellation. 

Sessions will focus on working together to address the immediate challenges being faced. One of the goals of this work is to equip the relationship with skills to be self-sustaining and able to resolve issues collaboratively without resorting to toxic behaviors or relying on the assistance of therapy.  
Sessions are usually scheduled weekly/bi-weekly then reduced in frequency based on needs of the relationship. For many relationships and couples this takes about 10 to 12 weeks, though every relationship is different. During that time couples can get to know each other on a deeper level, identify shared goals, work through immediate issues, and make sure they are prepared for potential future concerns.

 Relationship Enrichment Counseling

Preventative relationship counseling, (also known as relationship enrichment or relationship strengthening counseling), is for those who are not experiencing immediate difficulties but want to work on their relationship.  In relationship enrichment counseling, techniques and skills will be introduced to help increase effective communication. Reviewing shared goals and helping strengthen to plans to continue building a life together is what this branch of counseling is for. Progress from a good relationship to a great relationship!
