Our Process
Our relationship therapists begin with a session to audit the relationship. This means we are going to come together, get to know each other, and allow the therapist to learn about each person's goals for therapy.
​
After the first session, it is typical for the therapist to see each person individually to understand each person’s individual perspectives. It is important in these sessions for the therapist to learn about your history with relationships, a little bit about your past and what has brought you to therapy. This allows the therapist to provide an educated estimate into what each person is bringing to the table, informing the treatment plan.
​
Relationships are all about communication! Throughout your sessions, heavy emphasis will be placed on equipping you with tools for healthy communication and mutual understanding.
Our therapists use approaches like Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) or the Gottman Method to approach work with partners.
​
Relationship sessions can be either 50 or 75 minutes depending on your preferences and needs.
