Our staff provides emotional support, education and guidance for a variety of concerns confronted by today’s families.

Marriage/Couples Counseling

Couples who are struggling with unresolved disagreements and conflicts, communication difficulties, and relationship dissatisfaction will often benefit from marriage therapy. Our staff have years of experience and training in this area, and we have been successful in helping couples to improve their relationships. We strive to create an environment where both men and women feel safe, respected, and comfortable expressing their needs and concerns. Following an initial assessment where problems are identified, we then establish goals for both parties. We encourage emotional openness, active problem-solving, and relationship skill development. We endeavor to recognize and change the unhealthy patterns and teach women to be effective in asking for what they want and encourage men to relate emotionally to their mate.
