Counseling for Couples
Online Counseling to strengthen Your Relationship
When you’re focused on everyone else: what happens to “us”?
Healthy relationships take effort, and with so many demands on our time, energy, and attention, it’s easy to stop carving out space to care for the relationship — and each other.
Relationships are deeply personal — and every couple brings their own unique history, culture, and perspective. At KonTerra Counseling and Psychological Services, our couples counseling services honor and respect that diversity, providing a safe, inclusive space where both partners can feel heard, valued, and understood.
Maybe you’re noticing:
A desire to grow closer and reconnect emotionally
Trust issues or past betrayals that are hard to move past
Parenting challenges or differing styles
Uncertainty about your future together
The journey of “us” has its challenges. Let’s navigate them together.
our approach to working with couples
We see couples counseling as a partnership, where our expertise in relationship dynamics meets your intimate knowledge of your unique bond.
We honor the diversity you bring and tailor our approach to address your specific needs and goals. Together, we'll identify the obstacles hindering your connection and work towards creating a more fulfilling and resilient "us," fostering a space where both partners feel understood and supported in their individual and shared experiences.
Our goal is to help you identify patterns, understand each other's needs more clearly, and build stronger pathways for connection and growth, no matter the challenges you face or direction your relationship takes.
