Couples Counseling

Regain trust, reconnect, and feel secure in your relationship again!

Being in a relationship that provides comfort and support from a partner is a wonderful thing. 

At the same time, the maintenance of a relationship requires a lot of work on many levels. However, the growth that comes from it is invaluable and will benefit your relationship immensely. 

Couples are often overwhelmed at the start of couples counseling. You may feel that issues have been ongoing for so long that it’s hard to tell where things started to go off the rails.

We also recognize that there are as many different relationship dynamics as there are couples. Our office is an inclusive, non-judgemental safe space for all types of traditional and non-traditional relationships looking to grow and improve their lives together. 

One of you may not be fully on board with the concept of counseling. You may have even tried some type of marital counseling or program in the past with limited success. All of these situations are normal, and our trained counselors can help you address each one in time. They can help you and your partner identify the deeper meanings behind your disagreements and determine how they can be addressed with long-term solutions.

How We Can Help

  • Intimacy and trust are vital to any relationship and one can’t exist without the other. We provide a secure place to explore your difficulties with intimacy, and help you get to the root of conflict. If you are in a relationship where intimacy is taking a back seat to the stresses of daily living, or you and your partner struggle with trust issues, we can help. We can help you move toward regaining the safety, comfort and connection that is at the heart of every healthy relationship.

  • Open, honest communication is essential to the cultivation of a healthy relationship. As relationships grow deeper, open communication requires emotional honesty and vulnerability, which can be scary. Some studies suggest that verbal expression is only about 17% of all communication, so no wonder it gets complicated! Our experienced counselors can provide you with the tools you’re seeking to enhance your communication so that you both feel safe and understood in your relationship.

  • As a couple, changes occur that are both planned and unplanned. However change happens, life transitions can often introduce stress, upheaval and intense emotions. Whether life changes are related to parenting, family, finances, trauma, or health, our counselors at LaunchPad Counseling can meet your unique needs, while helping you navigate the new demands that change can bring to your relationship. Change is inevitable; adjusting to it together can make you stronger.

  • Career changes can have a broad impact on a couple’s lifestyle through shifts in salary, location, hours, or occupational demands. These kinds of changes and managing a healthy work-life balance often threaten the stability of even rock solid relationships. At LaunchPad Counseling we equip couples with the skills and resources to establish a sensible and effective balance while openly communicating with and supporting each other.
