Every relationship has its ups and downs.

If you and your partner fight with each other, you are not alone. It’s a completely natural part of a relationship. However, problems can arise when arguments transform into toxic conflicts.

Do you feel that the spark in your relationship is fizzling out? Do you frequently get into arguments with your partner? Do you fail to stop arguments before they escalate? If you answered yes to these questions, you should consider giving couples counseling in Manhattan a try.

A couple may benefit from counseling if they want to increase intimacy in their relationship, spice up their sex life, develop more romance in their relationship, or cooperate more effectively in raising their kids.

Some common goals of couples counseling are: improving communication between partners, encouraging couples to better accept each other, discovering the root causes of major conflict points, restoring physical and emotional intimacy, equipping partners with the skills required to identify and avoid triggers, and better understand each other.

Couples gain insights into their relationship dynamics and better understanding of their relational patterns. They acquire the necessary skills required to solve relationship problems.

Even couples in strong relationships can benefit from counseling as it can strengthen your relationship by allowing you and your partner to better understand each other’s values and expectations, preventing conflicts from occurring, and improving intimacy.

Couples therapy can address an existing problem, prevent exacerbations of existing issues, or help couples in a steady relationship navigate transitions.

Many couples may need just a few months to work through issues, while others need a few years. How long couples therapy will take will depend on your choice of treatment model, treatment goals, the amount of effort you and your partner are willing to put in, and the severity of the problem.

Our counselors are trained in different types of therapy. They have the expertise required to tailor treatment plans based on our clients’ unique needs. In the initial sessions, we interview couples to better understand trigger points for conflicts in their relationship and their relationship history.

After we acquire an in-depth understanding of relationship issues, we set treatment goals and milestones. During therapy sessions, we equip couples with the skills required to resolve conflicts amicably.
