Relationship and Marriage Counseling
Willow & Arbor, PLLC
Counselor/Therapist
Relationships are a part of life but not something most of us receive any guidance or education in. Many people have any idea of the type of marriage they would like but no actual experience or example of how to make that work. Therapy can help you identify your personal and joint values and create the narrative of the relationship you want. Therapy can also help you identify stumbling blocks to that narrative and how to overcome them from an authentic and genuine place rather than avoidance. Many people believe "improved communication" is the key to fixing a marriage, and while this is important I also find that many couples communicate a lot but struggle with empathy, emotion tolerance, perspective taking, and follow through. Lastly, not all relationships are meant to last and some remain together out of fear of divorce or being alone. We can process this possiblity if it applies to your relationship and navigate it together.

Dr. Susan L. Waldo
Psychologist, PhD
One of my very favorite therapies is couples therapy. I so enjoy helping couple restore their love and relationship. I work with the couple (first) and with each individual when engaged couples work. I help each partner rediscover or get to know themselves and help them resolve pains from the past that may be negatively impacting their relationship. If either partner has suffered physical, sexual, or emotional abuse; neglect; has been a crime victim, or a victim of tragedy or natural disaster, I will help them resolve the impacts on their relationships. Work with the couple often includes work on communication, compatibility, having fun and dates, social time with others, kindnesses and responsiveness to one’s partner, level of engagement in the relationship, dependability, honesty, affection, sexual intimacy, children, finances, and in-laws. Also, any problems in the relationship are addressed including: drug/alcohol abuse, addictions of any kind (I.e. internet, sex, shopping, gambling), domestic violence (physical, sexual, or emotional), or other challenging behaviors.
