Specialties — Relationship Restoration for Couples

Whether you are a couple living together, married many years, newly wed or domestic partners, intimate relationships can pose great struggles and offer incredible rewards. As you develop your relationship over your lifetime, situations will inevitably arise and challenge you.

Many couples feel strains in their relationship due to:

• Caring for an in-law
• Making financial ends meet
  
• Recently having a baby
  
• Career stress
  
• Family responsibilities

These issues can easily distract you from your partner. You or your partner may feel distant, frustrated, angry and resentful.

Through therapy, many couples learn how to handle challenges without losing connection to their loved one. Some couples find resolve without therapy but others find themselves caught up in cycles of negative emotions.

Many couples report that the structure of therapy helps them stay on track and not get stuck in "what happened last week". Events are discussed but always within a frame of moving forward and beyond conflict toward resolution.

Couples who love each other and commit to their relationship learn how to:

• Improve communication
• Understand and practice compromise
• Cope with stress
• Make each other a priority
• Live like lovers instead of buddies
• Make time for intimacy and sex
• Meet each other's needs and desires

Love can feel complicated as it is often filled with joy and pain. However, when two people attempt to build a life together, extraordinary learning, growth and connection can occur. From this, couples can learn how to be fully present to themselves, to each other and to their relationship.
