Relationship Counseling

 

Relationship counseling is for individuals who are dating, engaged, married/monogamously coupled, contemplating divorce, or seeking to improve already strong bonds.

Couples are seen together and rarely are individuals seen alone. The reason for this is that counseling is being provided for the couple and the dynamics of being a couple are best explored when both parities are present. Occasionally, one person will be seen to address issues that affect but do not stem from the couple relationship.
