Couples Counseling

Whether you are dating, choosing your wedding day, or have been married for 20 years, couples counseling is one of the best investments you can make in your relationship. Couples counseling can elevate our ability to talk to each other, forgive one another, and build a life together.

Finding your dynamic as a couple can take time but once you’ve established it, things tend to fall in place. If you are struggling to establish a dynamic or a rhythm as a couple – counseling can be effective in helping a couple identify their blind spots and shine a light on tools to move forward. In the beginning of a relationship (within the first year) couples counseling may be helpful for the following:

Establishing trust & relationship rules
Intimacy issues
Spiritual/Religious growth together
Conflict resolution & problem solving
Understanding how to communicate effectively
Blending households
Finding quality time and creating memories

Our approach to couples counseling is highly collaborative and our experienced therapists practice from a faith-based foundation. They utilize current research and evidence-based treatments to facilitate effective change in a structured manner. These techniques and treatments are often highly structured, brief, and oriented towards finding a solution that is agreed upon by both of you.

The timeline for couples counseling is dependent on your needs and growth as a couple. Counseling can be used as an intervention on an ‘as needed’ basis for specific concerns. Couples counseling might be used to prepare for a future transition that may be complicated or distressing. Couples counseling can be made a part of the routine to maintain your dynamic and explore new ways to communicate, learn healthy conflict resolution skills, and explore ways to deepen your intimate bond.

Before couples counseling can begin, we offer a consultation to ensure that our services are a good fit. Within the first two sessions, our therapists will gather background and historical information as needed and formulate a plan with both of you and identify goals and desired outcomes. If one or both of you require additional resources from a medical or mental health standpoint, we will provide referrals to ensure that you are both healthy and able to fully participate. As counseling progresses, your therapist will routinely monitor the progress being made and identify what needs fine tuning, in order to help you achieve the goals you desire as a couple.

Finding a partner that you’ve truly connected with is the first step and contacting us for a consultation is the second one. At Steadfast Christian Counseling, we value couples and their commitment to maintaining a deeply satisfying relationship, rooted in faith, and elevated by love for one another. Contact us today for a consultation.
