Can a relationship be healed or improved through Christian Couples Counseling in Minneapolis?

Many couples bring their concerns over can their relationship be healed, a spouse not wanting to participate, does counseling work, is it worth the investment? I can tell you each session I will work with you on a specific plan on how you can influence things more effectively in your relationship. If you spouse/partner won’t hear your complaints, I will work directly with you both on your approach to each other. There is power in having a 3rd party intervening for you both and so you don’t feel like you have the heal the relationship alone. Each session is going to be a productive use of time in what needs to happen to move forward.

I have experience working with couples of all ages to help navigate through their challenges and re-establish connection. I have completed Level 2 training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy which is one of the most respected and researched forms of couple’s therapy. I am happy to provide the Gottman toolbox in sessions to you. I have also done some trainings from Terry Real and his Relational Life Therapy. I am a marriage friendly therapist and work with marriages to find concrete solutions as opposed to suggesting to divorce primarily. I want you to trust your relationship is going to be in good hands.

If any of the above relate to you, contact me today for a free consultation. I would love to speak about how I may be able to help reconnect and rekindle your love for one another. I am married myself and glad to help show couples how they can have a strong relationship.

Couples Counseling FAQs

What does Christian Couples Counseling process look like from start to finish?

We first start by doing a relationship history assessment and go over what goals you have for your relationship. We’ll set some specific objectives you want to accomplish and come up with a plan together. Then we meet pretty consistently as we are working towards the goals, while I provide exercises, tools and resources for you as a couple to practice weekly.

What can I expect to take away from Christian Couples Counseling in Minnesota?

I am trained in a very active approach to couples therapy and marriage counseling. The sessions are much more then just active listening skills. We go over key habits that lead to successful relationships, and go over plenty of tools to help navigate conflict much more effectively. You can expect to take away a large amount of resources to approach your relationships with confidence.

What if my spouse absolutely refuses to participate or want to work on the relationship?

I am a believer it takes two people to form a healthy relationship. But you can always influence a relationship and the direction it heads in. I work with many people individually on how to get things moving forward. This really does require working with a counselor for coming up with a plan to best proceed.
