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.

Relationships and couples/marriage counseling is one of the main reasons people seek therapy. Attachment research is clear about our need as human to connect with and have a loving relationship with another that is mutual and reciprocal.

Craig Springer
Psychologist, PhD
I recognize how central relationships are to one’s health and well-being. I also understand how painful it can be when we have difficulties establishing or maintaining relationships or when we have difficulties in a particular relationship. The ability to maintain harmonious personal connections is not necessarily easy. Because of its inherent difficulty, many people encounter high levels of relational stress and may even experience a complete cut off from others.
The good news is that even though developing meaningful and healthy relationships requires a specific set of skills, which can be learned. Those who can improve their style of communication can bring about profound improvement in the level of closeness, support and satisfaction in their relationships and consequently experience greater happiness in their lives.
I can work with you to provide the tools necessary to improve communication and establish more intimate connections. I begin by examining your patterns of interactions to determine what is causing or maintaining your interpersonal conflicts or leaving you feeling detached. Next, I will guide you through practices that will teach you how to improve your relationship style and connections with others.
