Couples Therapy
“In relationships, trust isn’t a promise to never hurt each other. It’s the risk that we will hurt each other and the confidence that, if we do, we will come together to heal.” -Esther Perel

Difficulties within a romantic partnership can feel overwhelming at best and devastating at worst. One of our core needs as humans is to connect meaningfully with others, and when this foundation is shaky, it can feel like our whole world is turned upside down. Couples therapy can help.
At Lilac Therapy Center, we value and are committed to helping couples rebuild trust, connection, and intimacy while reducing negative cycles of communication and conflict. We know that successful relationships require work, nurturing, and intention, but the rush and stress of daily life can often make this difficult. Whether you have been stuck in unhealthy relationship patterns for many years, have experienced a recent change to your relationship (such as moving in together or bringing home a new baby), or are entering into a new partnership and looking to avoid repeating past mistakes, couples therapy can provide the space to help you achieve your relationship goals. We carefully tailor our therapeutic approach to meet the needs of each couple, and we utilize interventions from a variety of treatment models to help our couples reach their goals. We work with dating, pre-marital, married, or co-habitating couples, and our practice is LGBTQ-affirming.
Our couples therapy services are designed to provide a safe and supportive environment where partners can come together, openly communicate, and strengthen their emotional connection. Our team of experienced therapists is dedicated to guiding couples through their journey, fostering understanding, and empowering individuals to be their authentic selves within the relationship.
