Relationship Counseling
Choose the Relationship Counseling That Works for You
Marriage counseling and couples therapy are forms of family therapy designed to identify and address specific issues impacting your relationship, including communication problems, conflict about having or raising children, infidelity, financial struggles, anxiety, past sexual abuse trauma, and more.
Premarital Counseling
Our virtual premarital counseling is a great way to proactively address premarital concerns and prepare for marriage to ensure the well-being of your relationship. Your counselor will guide you and your fiances in addressing potential challenges and gaining skills for a successful union, including learning to manage disagreements, reduce anxiety, and discuss important topics like finances, AHDH, family planning, depression, and intimacy.
Couples Therapy
Couples therapy is open to all couples seeking to build healthy relationships. Whether you’re married, living together, polyamorous, considering a breakup, single, gay, bisexual, or straight, couples therapy and counseling meet the needs of couples in any relationship stage or type. The aim is to mend frayed bonds or reinforce an already happy relationship.
LGBTQ+ and Polyamorous Couples Therapy
Our therapy team is incredibly proud to be LGBTQ+, Kink, and Poly-friendly. We wholeheartedly support the Sex Positive community throughout Spokane and work tirelessly to provide a judgment-free zone where every client feels genuinely understood without any discrimination regarding identity.
Marriage Counseling
Marriage counseling is an excellent choice for all married couples, whether you’re in a loving relationship, experiencing difficulties, or considering divorce. Working with a licensed marriage therapist, you and your partner will learn to better understand your emotions toward your marriage, meet each others’ needs, resolve persistent disagreements, strengthen emotional and physical bonds, and support each other during tough times through effective communication.
Infidelity & Affair Recovery Therapy
Repairing the damage caused by an affair is challenging, yet it’s possible if both partners are committed to the process. Couples and marriage therapy help to address the root causes of infidelity and provide partners with a safe space to honestly share feelings of betrayal, rebuild trust & connection, listen with empathy & compassion, learn to meet each other’s needs, and develop the skills required for a successful reconciliation.
