RELATIONSHIP AND PARTNERSHIP COUNSELING

RELATIONSHIP COUNSELING IS DIFFERENT THAN INDIVIDUAL THERAPY

That's why you want to make sure your therapist works with couples and partnerships and has experience navigating diverse experiences with interpersonal relationships.

EMOTIONALLY FOCUSED THERAPY

Is a modality that has been researched and empirically studied to show an increase in overall relationship satisfaction for couples that last beyond the standard six months.  Angela has devoted hundreds of hours learning and applying Emotionally Focused Therapy with couples- and it works!

BEING IN RELATIONSHIP TAKES WORK

Sometimes there are difficult conversations to be had.  Just like any endeavor to better yourself, there will be growing pains. And knowing this, your heart still longs for something different, a new relationship that feels good, that reflects who you really are on the inside.

“Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing
and rightdoing there is a field.
I'll meet you there.

When the soul lies down in that grass
the world is too full to talk about.”

~ Rumi
