This treatment is directed towards couples who are prone to aggressive conversations, build emotional barriers between each other, and who simply need help increasing intimacy.
The goal is to bring couples closer by understanding each others’ feelings in a deeper sense, developing empathy, improving friendship, and interpersonal growth. Our therapist will have a private conversation with each partner first to discuss the problems at hand. You and your partner will learn how to turn towards one another when faced with conflict rather than away.
What you can expect:
We start by teaching our clients how to listen to one another, to comprehend the emotions of their partner through words.
Next we focus on developing empathy for one another.
We also practice communicating in a way that is loving, caring, and conveys those emotions.
The goal is to improve intimacy, respect, and affection by attending sessions and engaging in at home exercises.
