Our Approach
How we work
Each person, and the relationship, gets real attention.
We start by understanding each person and the relationship. Approaches may include emotionally focused and Gottman informed methods, communication skills and repair work. After betrayal, each partner usually has individual support first.
Partners hurt by hidden sexual behavior can start with betrayal trauma therapy.
Inside Treatment
Couples work inside treatment
Clients in IIP, PHP or IOP can add couples sessions to their plan, and our Family Intensive Weekend brings loved ones in each month.
