Sara E Roth
Counselor/Therapist, Ph.D., IMFT-S, LPCC, EMDR Certified Therapist, EFT Trained Therapist
Oftentimes, couples expect that when they fall in love, they will sail off into the sunset. Sadly, that expectation will create significant difficult emotions when there are bumps in the road that they find they can’t navigate. Expectations breed disappointment and resentment.
The reality is that all relationships take work. The best of relationships need to be nurtured. Relationships that aren’t prioritized end up on the back burner, and then couples drift apart. When couples feel disconnected, often times either tensions escalate and hurt feelings create damage, or in some cases, infidelity.
Does any of this sound familiar?
So much can be done to repair a relationship. Your relationship and your happiness is worth it. Think of it as an investment in yourself, in your future, in your relationship.
Couples therapy will include discussing your goals and understanding the issues from both partners as they see it from their perspective. Skills related to understanding each other’s perspective, such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) skills is a priority. We will explore your communication skills, your conflict styles and conflict cycles to understand patterns, including using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address thought patterns that trigger and escalate conflicts and hurt feelings.
You can reconnect with your partner and emerge with a stronger relationship.

Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
I have been married over 40 years so I can tell you, relationships are hard but so worth it. I love working with couples to help them realize what really is normal and messy and how to navigate normal and messy. I will listen to you and your partner describe what each of you see as an issue, then hear your examples and teach each of you how you can approach the situation differently to give you a better outcome. Couples come in thinking they are going to tell me everything that is wrong with their partner and to fix them. I help individuals realize how their own actions can change the outcome. Once everyone focuses on doing their own work, then they see the desired outcome in the relationship. It sounds uncomfortable, but it's really a lot of fun and we laugh a lot.
