Grow together at any stage of your relationship with couples therapy. You love each other and have a lot of strengths together. Yet intense, repeated arguments make you upset and distant. You want to fight less so you can trust each other more. Couples therapy is a process that helps partners improve communication and build trust. Partners learn to understand one another more deeply, which lets them feel closer and be more connected.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the relationship between your thoughts, your feelings and what you do. It looks at how your life has shaped what you believe, and if that is working to help you live the life you want. It is evidence based and very effective with anxiety, stress, self-criticism and insomnia.

The Gottman Method is excellent at helping couples improve communication. It helps couples reduce their negative reaction to each other, recognize problematic communication patterns and practice using more effective communication.

Exposure and Response Prevention is a difficult therapy that is excellent at supporting individuals with OCD to slow the obsession/ compulsion cycle.
