The Couples Center is dedicated to providing a safe, positive and hopeful place for couples and individuals who wish to restore or enhance the love and intimacy of their relationship. Despite the special feelings that brought them together, in time, most couples have to deal with some loss of the closeness of being in love.
They begin to face problems and disillusionments that differences inevitably bring. This is a natural part of relationship development. Even with their best intentions and efforts, most couples eventually get stuck in repetitive negative patterns and find it very difficult and discouraging to avoid these painful interactions.

Very little can be accomplished when one or both partner's feel judged, blamed or criticized. This will inevitably lead to anger, defensiveness, despair and distance. The reactive behaviors that follow are unproductive and usually only serve to make things worse. No one feels safe.
Many times these impulsive behaviors come from attempts to protect oneself from perceived attacks, threats or danger, or from the pain of feeling distant, uncared for and disrespected.When partners can slow down and really hear and understand one another, feelings start to make sense. We help couples establish emotional safety that allows and enhances understanding from the very start.
