Helping High-Conflict Couples
Find their Calm
Relationships are hard, 
and all couples fight. Relationships are hard, and all couples fight. But some couples fight all the time. And when these couples fight, they fight dirty. High conflict couples scream at each other, call each other names, and bring up things from the past. It can get pretty intense. But, under the surface, these couples feel exhausted, guilty, and ashamed. And, at some point, even high conflict couples have to stop fighting.
If this sounds like you, you’re in the right place.
Couples counseling and individual relationship therapy can help if . . .
. . . You can’t stop fighting.
Whether it’s about money, sex, or chores, you and your partner can’t seem to agree on anything. And, it’s tearing your relationship apart. If you find yourself thinking, “I can’t do this anymore,” it’s time to ask for help.
. . . You and your partner get “stuck” in the same argument over and over again.
All couples argue, but when you find yourself having the same fight over and over again, something needs to change. Couples counseling can address the core issues at the heart of this conflict and teach you how to communicate and compromise.
. . . You can’t stop thinking about the past.
Trust is the foundation of any strong relationship, and when trust is challenged or lost, moving forward is hard. If you’re having difficulty with trust and commitment because of past hurts and betrayals, couples counseling can help you repair and rebuild the trust and commitment in your marriage.
. . . You feel like you and your partner are drifting apart.
Once upon a time, you felt closer to your partner than almost anyone else in your world. Now, you’re not sure if you even know each other anymore. If you want to rekindle your connection, couples counseling can help.
I know it’s hard, but it’s not hopeless. Let’s talk about how I might be able to help.
