Why couples counseling?

The conflict between the need for autonomy, feeling like you direct your own life, and the need for attachment comes to head in a profound way when it comes to building long term romantic relationships. This struggle can manifest in a variety ways such as disagreements about money disappointment in your sex life, persistent arguing, disconnect while navigating a big transition, or betrayal. It may also be that you are in a nontraditional relationship and are struggling to find solutions to uncharted territories. Couples counseling at Affirming Life Therapy, Inc. can give you concrete tools to help you more effectively communicate and lovingly work through conflict. It can also help you see how past wounding may be impacting your ability to connect by setting you up with certain patterns of attachment; as well as how to work through this. In this way it strengthens your bond to experience yourself and your partner in a more authentic and compassionate light.

Tell me how you were loved as a child and I will tell you how make love as an adult.
