3-steps to a better relationship

Our Proven Relationship Counseling Process

Initial Assesment

Your first visit gives you both time to talk about what’s brought you in and what you hope to get from counseling. During this meeting, your counselor asks questions to understand your relationship’s background and checks in about what matters most to you right now.

Joint Sessions

In your regular sessions together, you’ll both have time to talk about what’s on your mind while your counselor helps guide the conversation. These meetings give you a chance to work through challenges, learn new ways to talk to each other, and find solutions that work for both of you.

Individual Sessions

Your counselor will meet with each of you separately, alongside your regular couple sessions, to understand your individual views and concerns. These one-on-one talks give both partners space to share personal perspectives.
