About Couples Therapy

Couples services focus on identifying dysfunctional relationship patterns while helping partners develop healthier communication, conflict-management, emotional connection, accountability, and problem-solving skills.

You do not have to arrive agreeing on what the problem is. Couples often do not.

All clinical therapy services

Clinical and forensic services are distinct professional activities. The existence of a therapeutic relationship does not automatically establish a forensic evaluator or expert-witness relationship. Services are provided only within the provider's education, training, professional scope, current licensure status, supervision requirements, and applicable California law.
