“Love rests on two pillars: surrender and autonomy. Our need for togetherness exists alongside our need for separateness.” - Esther Perel
What is it that draws two people together to form a romance and love? Why is it that same love often feels like it runs dry and no longer is enough to sustain the relationship. How do two people end up being in a relationship yet often feeling completely alone. How can a person who once expressed deep love for another turn and hurt them in more painful ways than ever imagined.
In couples therapy, relationships can begin to unlock those hidden feelings and learn to recover and reconcile. In couples therapy we are dealing with three different members. You, your partner and the couple. Each is valuable to the whole. In this work, you will learn a model of differentiation of the three. You will be offered a space to find healing, connection and intimacy.
** Insurance is not able to be billed for couples therapy. This is due to the model of therapy that we offer at The Family Therapy Place and the requirements of insurance billing. Insurance requires that one identified patient receive a diagnosis in order to have a medically necessary therapy session. The couples therapists here believe that your confidentiality is key to the work in your relationships and we offer ethical treatment in every facet of our work with relationships. Our couples therapists believe that the relationship is the identified patient and everyone offers a contribution to the dynamic that is creating conflict or disruption. We are not able to bill insurance for this service from this framework. We do believe that this treatment model offers more healing and deeper connections due to our ability to offer more creative experiences for couples and at times, longer sessions to accommodate the needs of the couple.
A sliding scale option may be available for this service
