Couples Therapy

Relationships are a cornerstone of human connection, but they can face challenges that test their strength and resilience. At Better Being Psychology Group, we understand that every couple’s journey is unique, and we are committed to helping partners navigate their challenges with compassion, expertise, and evidence-based approaches. Couples therapy offers a safe and supportive space to address concerns, deepen intimacy, and foster healthier ways of relating to one another. Whether you’re looking to strengthen an already healthy relationship, improve communication, or heal from significant hurts, our skilled therapists are here to guide you. Couples seek therapy for a variety of reasons, from fine-tuning their connection to addressing complex issues that threaten the relationship’s foundation. Our team is trained in leading therapeutic approaches, including Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT), the Gottman Method, and Cognitive Behavioral Couples Therapy (CBCT). These evidence-based interventions empower couples to slow down reactive patterns, rebuild trust, and create lasting, positive change. By optimizing your relationship through therapy, you can cultivate deeper emotional and physical intimacy, navigate life transitions, and build a partnership that thrives.

Our Approach to Couples Therapy

At Better Being Psychology Group, our therapists are trained in evidence-based interventions tailored to the unique needs of each couple. Our primary approaches include:

Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT): EFCT focuses on strengthening emotional bonds and breaking negative interaction cycles. By identifying and addressing underlying emotions, couples can create more secure and loving connections.
Gottman Method: Based on decades of research, the Gottman Method equips couples with practical tools to manage conflict, enhance intimacy, and build a shared sense of meaning. Techniques include improving communication, fostering appreciation, and navigating disagreements constructively.
Cognitive Behavioral Couples Therapy (CBCT): CBCT helps couples identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to relationship challenges. This approach is particularly effective for addressing communication issues and managing conflict.

Our therapists are also LGBTQ+ affirming, sex-positive, and kink-friendly, ensuring that all couples feel safe and supported regardless of their identities, orientations, or relationship structures. We tailor each session to your specific goals, whether you’re seeking to resolve a specific issue or enhance an already strong partnership.
