PAXTON PSYCHOTHERAPY
Couples & Relationships
Are you struggling in your relationship and unsure where to turn? I am able to treat most couples concerns, including affair recovery, relationship dissatisfaction, conflict, co-parenting, premarital counseling, and more.
In addition to the services listed on this page, I also offer specialized treatment for couples where one or both partners are experiencing PTSD. Click here to learn more about couples therapy for PTSD.
Many couples fear that couples therapy won't work. Some believe that the pain of an affair or betrayal is too great to overcome. Others don't believe they can ever reignite the spark that brought them together in the first place. Some believe their hectic lives of work and parenthood don't leave room for romance and connection. Still more have heard horror stories from friends who say their couples therapist made their relationship worse. This is why I don't offer run-of-the-mill couples counseling. Instead, I offer science-based couples therapy and use the two most effective couples treatments available - the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT). These methods can instill hope and promote healing. Are you are ready to work through the issues keeping you stuck and reconnect with your partner? Click here to learn more.
If you're reading this, you're probably not having major struggles in your relationship. Maybe you have a few issues you'd like to talk through before tying the knot, or maybe you just want to explore some ways you and your future spouse can give your marriage the best chance for success. Either way, you're in the right place. Couples who attend premarital counseling are 30% more likely to have a successful marriage than couples who do not. Research also shows that couples who attend premarital counseling are better off than 80% of the couples who don't.
As a certified Prepare/Enrich facilitator and a trained couples therapist, I can help you identify the strengths in your relationship and work on any areas that might need a little boost. Are you ready to start your marriage off on the right foot? Click here to learn more.
