Couples and family therapy is a collaborative process that focuses on the “unit” by striving to help individuals connect, understand one another, and improve bonds. Most couples and families have disagreements, but how they cope with differences in values, opinions, and belief systems is key to a successful relationship. Common problems addressed in family and couples therapy include communication challenges, finances, trust and boundary issues, infidelity, co-parenting, child-rearing, fertility issues, recurring arguments, and mental health struggles. 

Seeking support from a nonjudgmental and unbiased professional can help facilitate an open dialogue between couples and families where each person feels heard and supported. Couples and family therapy is a collaborative process in which honest and transparent dialogue is encouraged. Sol Psychology is available to facilitate couple and family sessions with utmost care and compassion.

Common reasons couples or families seek support:
  • Family Conflict
  • Divorce/separation
  • Separation Adjustment
  • Co-Parenting Counseling
  • Divorce Mediation
  • Parent and Child Joint Therapy
  • Relationship Issues related to finances, intimacy, child rearing, infidelity, infertility, verbal/emotional/physical abuse
  • Dependence
  • Gambling 
  • Pre-Marital Counseling
