Couples Therapy NYC

Why Couples Therapy?

A committed relationship filled with deep love and abiding trust is what we all want. It’s why you chose each other...but now things are not what they once were. If you are located in New York City, Couples therapy can help you find the intimacy again by sorting through your conflicts in a collaborative, realistic, and goal-oriented way. 

Marriage and Couples therapy can help you rebuild intimacy and find your way back to each other.

What are the issues treated in couples therapy, relationship counseling, or marriage counseling?

The path to real intimacy is often filled with struggle and anguish. Each person brings to the partnership their own unique strengths and weaknesses which can complicate what seems like it should be simple. 

Do You Have These Questions?

  • Why do our conversations always end up in conflict and confrontation?
  • How can we create a balanced relationship and family life?
  • Can we regain our emotional and physical connection?
  • Can we ever rebuild trust after infidelity?
  • How can we find our way back to each other, after everything we’ve been through?
  • How do I know if my marriage or relationship is over?
when is it too late for marriage counseling

It’s likely that you have tried to change these things without success, and perhaps you’ve even considered separation. You and your partner love each other but are often unhappy together.  

Couples therapy or marriage counseling will help you address these frustrating dynamics. You will learn to really talk to one another and feel united rather than divided.

Feeling disconnected from your partner Expand

People in healthy marriages feel connected to one another. They enjoy each other’s company, respect each other, are affectionate, and can work through challenges when they arise. 

As the pressures of life proceed, some couples find themselves at a distance from one another. Rather than feeling close and connected, it almost feels like you don’t have a partner anymore. Your relationship may feel distant and disengaged. This can create a painful divide that will grow until you address it directly.

Marriage counseling or couples therapy can help you remember what you love about one another. 

Conflict Expand

Every couple argues. That’s normal. The problem arises when disagreements shut down healthy communication.  When your partner upsets you, it is critical that you are able to share your feelings. 

When sharing feelings causes an eruption in anger or disappearance into silence, the situation can feel hopeless. This is painful for the two of you, and scary for the children.

With the help of a couples or marriage counselor, you can learn to handle conflict in a way that strengthens the relationship instead of tearing you apart.

Infidelity Expand

The impact of infidelity on your relationship can be devastating. The first step is to heal from the shock of realizing what has happened to your marriage. You may feel that you have lost everything, including your trust and love, leaving you traumatized and despairing.

Healing a relationship after infidelity isn’t easy, but neither is ending one. Though it may not feel true today, forgiveness is possible and your relationship can be made stronger than ever. Marriage counseling can help you navigate this trying experience. 

Rekindling Intimacy Expand

In a happy relationship you feel as though your partner is your best friend and biggest supporter.  Ideally, this closeness exists inside and outside of the bedroom. Sexual connection is an important piece of an intimate relationship.  If sexual intimacy has been lost between the two of you, a marriage counselor can help you find your way back to each other.

What to expect from couples therapy and marriage counseling:

  • An opportunity to learn a new way to talk to each other
  • A safe place to practice new communication skills
  • Guidance to help you face your most uncomfortable truths 
  • A path back to joy in your relationship
