Relationship and Marriage Counseling therapists in Guntersville, Alabama AL
Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S
Relationship and marriage counseling, or couples therapy, enhances communication, resolves conflicts, and reinforces the emotional bond between partners in a romantic relationship or marriage. Couples therapy is intended to provide a secure and supportive environment for couples to address issues, increase their mutual understanding, and work toward a healthier and more gratifying relationship.
Couples therapy is most effective when both partners are willing to actively participate and engage with an open mind and commitment to change. It provides a valuable opportunity for couples to overcome obstacles, enhance their communication, and strengthen their connection, fostering a healthier and more satisfying relationship. If you and your companion are experiencing difficulties in your relationship or marriage, a qualified couples therapist can provide invaluable support and direction.

Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
I use the four (or more) session model for relationship counseling. For the first session I meet with all the partners to establish what issues brought them to counseling. Then in the second and third (or more) sessions I meet with each partner individually so that they can say things to me that they don't want to say in front of their partner(s) and then for the fourth session I meet with all the partners together to review what I have learned and lay out my proposed treatment moving forward. I have found this method to be very effective, especially when compared to strictly relationship sessions.

As a marriage and family therapist, I am well-trained and experienced in finding commonalities and resolutions between couples. My goal is to help couples understand the misunderstood, speak the unspoken, improve communication, and discover hope from hopelessness.

Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
My approach to marry counseling therapy is through an emotionally focused practice. It brings couples together in a way they can connect intimately and get back to their roots of what was so interesting in the beginning of their relationship.
