Couples Counseling
Through our research-based treatment methods, we offer a supportive and confidential environment for Maryland-based couples of all orientations to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
Third-Party counselors help partnerships thrive.
Couples therapists and counselors play a vital role in helping couples improve their relationships
We help couples gain a deeper understanding of each other’s perspectives, leading to greater empathy and compassion in the relationship. Even when a relationship seems to have no major issues, therapy can be very beneficial, because it helps prevent minor issues from escalating, fostering a healthier and more resilient relationship.
Additionally, we help couples with parenting young children or children with special needs/mental health diagnoses, co-parenting strategies and dealing with separation, navigating step-parent/blended family issues, and working with the couple when one partner has a mental health diagnosis.
**At this time, we do not have any openings for Couples Therapy/Counseling. Feel free to let us know if you’re interested, and we’ll contact you when openings are available.**
Assessments
Our trained counselors assess the couple’s relationship, including their communication styles, conflict resolution skills, and areas of strength and improvement.
Education
We teach healthy relationship dynamics, effective communication strategies, and conflict resolution techniques.
Mediation
As an unbiased party, a counselor can mediate during conflicts, helping couples communicate more effectively and find mutually satisfactory solutions.
Goal-Setting
We help couples set realistic, achievable, and actionable goals for their relationship, such as improving communication or rebuilding trust.
Enhanced Intimacy
Some of our professionals specialize in helping couples rebuild emotional and physical intimacy, strengthening their bond and connection.
Healthy Boundaries
We also help couples set and maintain healthy boundaries, ensuring that each partner’s needs are respected and honored.
Infertilty Issues
Couples therapy provides a safe space for couples to express their emotions, receive support, and navigate the complex feelings associated with infertility
Family-of-Origin Interferance
We help address family of origin interference, which occurs when issues or dynamics from one or both partners’ families of origin impact their current relationship.
Many of our care providers host virtual sessions.
