Working with Couples

We work with our couples to improve their relationship. Using the family lens, we help couples to:

  • Develop joint goals and objectives
  • Improve the effectiveness of their communication
  • Deepen their understanding of each other and their sense of connection
  • Understand their cycle of interaction and how to shift it
  • Identify areas and issues over which they get ‘stuck’
  • Help them adjust to different stages in the life cycle and its impact upon their relationship
  • Explore the challenges of parenting and its impact upon the marital relationship
  • Underscore and use their strengths to address and resolve their challenges
  • Note how their families of origin have affected their relationships and how to make desired shifts in behaviors
  • Identify stressors that adversely impact their relationship and provide practical and relational solutions.
