Couples Counseling

It felt as if you were in the movies…

When you met, you couldn’t believe how good you made each other feel. You swept one another away, doing everything together and laughing the whole time.

You had so much in common, and the things you didn’t have in common seemed to complete, rather than detract, from you as a couple.

Even your eccentricities and peculiarities were amusing and endearing to one another, and you couldn’t get enough of those, either.

… and then things started to change.

The newness went away. And maybe the things that felt just “odd” or “cute” eventually morphed into major problems.

Maybe you find yourselves fighting more and more.

Sure, you still spend time together, but you probably also feel relieved when you get time apart.

Maybe one of you is spending more and more time out with friends or at work… maybe you both are.

Perhaps one or both of you may have even been unfaithful, and you’re not really sure where to go from here.

Your relationship is important to both of you, but it’s starting to feel more and more like work, and less and less like something you want. Learn more about couples therapy near Fairfax Northern Virginia.

Don’t make a decision you might regret without help.

At Family Wellness Group, we have a team of professionals who can help you and your partner work through the issues you’re experiencing, even if that means deciding to move on.

Most people decide they can work things out, and we can help you do that… through communication, compromise, and commitment. We will teach and practice a variety of techniques that will help you learn to listen to each other, rather than to just wait to speak.

You’ll also learn to express yourselves in a collaborative, non-judgmental way that will be more productive for both of you. Next, we’ll help you learn to prioritize what’s important to each individual, as well as to you as a couple, so that some of those “regular disagreements” you’ve been having are either resolved or exposed as something that wasn’t truly important to either of you to begin with.

Lastly, in couples therapy near Fairfax Northern Virginia, we’ll work to help you establish a mutual commitment to your relationship and, therefore, to the communication and compromising techniques you’ve learned through the course of your work with us. Some couples do decide that their relationship has run its course, and we can help people with that transition, too.
