Couples Counseling

It is normal and healthy for relationships to go through ups and downs. However, healthy and successful relationships take work! Are you ready to work with your partner on getting through the challenges you face together?

​

Seeking counseling when your relationship is going through a difficult stage can feel very vulnerable and intimidating.

Relationships go through different stages, from discovering one another to building trust, falling in love, and facing challenges together. Hence, it is essential to learn and understand how healthy relationships work and to be mindful of what is needed of you and your partner to make the relationship succeed.

Avanza provides the couple with a neutral and safe space to connect, explore the relationship, and work on developing empathy, understanding, and trust with the guidance of a licensed clinical professional counselor. Create and practice healthy and effective ways of being together. Work together instead of against each other.

​

We believe in complete individuals creating fulfilling relationships. In other words, neither partner has to lose yourselves or sacrifice individual identities, goals, or personal/professional development to make the relationship work. It is a matter of both parties' adaption, growth, and compromise. It takes commitment to make it work. We also believe that working together and overcoming relationship challenges can sometimes build intimacy, trust, and growth.

​

It is not all hard work, though. Relationships also require fun! In therapy, you can discover new ways to connect and build intimacy while having fun and enjoying each other's company. Get your relationship moving forward and become unstuck together. Develop the skills to address issues, break old and unhealthy fights and patterns of behavior, and take your relationship to a level of more profound love, trust, enjoyment, and understanding.
