What if I have questions that are not covered here?
Please get in touch with me here and I’ll be happy to answer them for you.
What can we expect from couples therapy?
Sessions are 50 minutes long and conducted by Zoom. The 1st session is an assessment where we explore the difficulties which you’re experiencing in the relationship. We also conduct an oral history interview, where you get to share the story of you as a couple. Most people find this experience enjoyable. In the 2nd and 3rd sessions I’ll meet with each of you individually to understand your experience of relationship more. The in the 4th session, I present the findings of assessment process and we’ll begin to explore treatment options & set goals for the couples therapy.
Couples therapy sounds like it could be helpful but it’s a little frightening, too
It’s normal for couples to feel nervous when first attending couples therapy. I actually find that most couples let go of any fears within the first few minutes of our meeting. I try to stay attuned to each person’s needs and work at a pace that’s right for you.
We’ve been struggling for so long, what’s the point?
It’s totally understandable that you may be feeling tired, cynical, and unhappy. I offer a skill-based and scientifically-driven series of interventions that have had excellent success rates where other models of couples therapy have failed. With your commitment and my support, it is possible to rediscover happiness, intimacy and love in your relationship.
How many sessions will we need?
It’s always a difficult question to answer. My commitment to you is that we meet for as few sessions as necessary to ensure you feel closer and more connected as a couple. This can often be 10 sessions or less. There is no one size fits all solution to couples therapy, and so I will be responding to your individual needs as a couple.
What is the cost per session?
Please check the fees page for more detailed information.
