Our Services
We offer a range of counseling services, including couples and marriage counseling, infidelity and trust counseling, anger-management skills, and treatment for sex and porn addiction. Our services are designed to help individuals and couples overcome common challenges, improve communication, and strengthen relationships.
Couples and Marriage Counseling
Our couples and marriage counseling services focus on improving communication, conflict resolution, and intimacy. We work with couples to identify and address underlying issues, develop healthy communication patterns, and strengthen their relationship. Our approach involves three phases: practicing communication skills, exploring the history of the relationship, and deeper exploration of earlier relationships and their influences.
Infidelity and Trust
Recovering from infidelity can be a daunting task, but with our guidance, couples can work towards rebuilding trust and strengthening their relationship. Our approach involves establishing a desire to recover, working with the feelings and questions of the hurt partner, coaching the couple in communication efforts, exploring the thoughts and motivations of the unfaithful partner, setting the groundwork for closure and rebuilding trust, and renewing the relationship through in-depth couples counseling.
Anger-Management Skills
Our anger-management services focus on helping individuals develop healthy expression and management of anger. We work with clients to identify triggers, break down the anger-response, explore underlying issues, and develop effective coping mechanisms.
Treatment for Sex and Porn Addiction
We provide a safe and supportive environment for individuals struggling with sex and porn addiction. Our approach involves identifying underlying issues, developing coping mechanisms, and working towards recovery and personal growth.
