Our mental health counselors aim to get to the core issues quickly and work through them effectively using a variety of techniques, including emotionally-focused couples therapy.
All couples have common sources of tension such as money, sex (or lack thereof), parenting, work/family imbalance, different religion and/or traditions, in-laws, me-time, etc. Each of these touch on deeper issues related to attachment needs: Feeling important, trust, safety, needed, accepted and understood.
In couples counseling, we assist partners in being able to articulate these needs in a structured, safe and non-judgmental environment and then move toward more beneficial interactions to create a lasting bond with one another. HOW we talk about these issues makes all of the difference! Transform your life for the better through our professional counseling services.

Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT) is like a dance. Sometimes, you and your partner may find yourselves stepping on each other’s toes or out of sync. It’s not about assigning blame over who misstepped, but rather understanding the deeper emotions driving the out-of-sync movement. You learn to express these emotions in a safe and vulnerable way. EFT helps you learn a new dance – one where you can move together with grace and harmony, even amidst life’s challenges.
EFT offers a transformative experience for couples, helping them not only heal past wounds but also build a future filled with love, understanding, and lasting connection. It’s an investment in your relationship, your family, and your overall well-being.
