Little comments and resentments tend to add up over the years. If left unresolved, they slowly eat away at the fabric of a marriage and most couples wait on average seven years too long before getting professional help.
By the time you do get help, the marriage may be in the ICU.
These are the times when choosing the right couples therapist really makes the difference whether your marriage can survive. Let us help you to see the pattern of interaction that is the problem and how to bring back the feelings that brought you together in the beginning of the relationship.
How satisfied are you really with your sex life? Is it a chore or a pleasure? Is it ok but you long for something more fulfilling with your partner? How do you even begin to talk about these things with your partner when you’ve never discussed your sex life together?
Does your sex life need CPR?
Whether it’s an illness, trauma, aging, or just the same old same old in the bedroom, we want to help you help your sex life to be a source of mutual satisfaction and a time of close bonding. We are here to gently help you increase pleasure and put another crackling log on your fire.
The person you love and trust has broken your heart by sharing their love with someone else outside of your marriage. Shock, disbelief, anger, devastation, disgust overcome you all at once most of your waking hours.
Are you ready to pick up the pieces to make something new together?
Or perhaps you are the person living with the guilt of seeing your loved one shattered? You’ve apologized a thousand times. Where do you go from here? Stop listening to well meaning people’s advice and start really figuring out how to make things better with real experts!
Starting again with a new partner is so exciting! Your hopes are high for the future together and you envision a family with enough love for all the children involved. But sometimes the kids (and other extended family members) throw up roadblocks. Get your new partnership off to a great start with professional help on how to merge two existing families.
How you merge two families sets you up for success or failure.
Nobody likes being painted as the evil step-parent and it’s possible in couples counseling or family counseling to learn how to handle the predictable situations new blended families face. Sometimes setting reasonable expectations is a good start as well as understanding what “normal” usually looks like in the process.
The best possible insurance policy on your new marriage is premarital counseling. How do you and your partner address conflict? How do you talk about money, family and sex? When you’re upset by your partner, what do you need? How do the two of you love and support each other when you’re both upset?
Premarital counseling is the closest you can get to immunizing your new marriage against infection.
Set your marriage up for long-term happiness. Learn the pillars on which your new commitment rests. Let us help you make sure you have everything you need to set out on a wonderful new journey together and that you two can talk constructively with each other about everything from sex to in-laws.
"Jenna helped my husband and I so much!"
She is warm, smart, and funny. We started with a different couples therapist and then went to see Jenna–best decision ever!
"Lauren's supportive approach made it easy to be open about experiences that normally are not easy to share."
She expresses empathy and compassion in each session which allows for her clients to really feel seen.
"Jessica is the perfect mix of empathy, compassion, directness."
We are forever grateful for her guidance and insights that helped us understand and establish “go to” skills for stopping the negative cycle of arguments and repairing the emotional hurt they cause.
"Jenna is both compassionate and intuitive"
She joins her clients skillfully and with genuine care, while helping them reach their goals and undoing their aloneness in the process.
