Have you and your partner considered couples counseling in the past? Have you found yourselves feeling disconnected, angry, defensive, or resentful in your relationship?

Couples counseling is often something people turn to when they’ve hit rock bottom. This can look different for every couple, but it’s rare for partners to seek support as a preventative measure outside of premarital counseling.

If you’ve ever scrolled through therapist profiles and felt more confused than when you started, you aren’t alone. Between Hollywood stereotypes and clinical jargon, it’s easy to feel cynical about the process. Many people hesitate to start therapy, not because they don’t want help, but because they aren’t sure what “help” actually looks like.
