At Adaptive Counseling, we will work together to explore the different aspects of your life you are inspired to change. I find that many people come to therapy because they feel stuck or unsure of what to do or how to feel better. In our work together, I will support you in understanding that your greatest challenges are often the experiences that help us to grow. Before we start, it's important for you to consider what you want from therapy and be willing to examine how you have gotten in your way of achieving your goals. For many clients seeking a change in their relationship, getting off to the right start is important. Ellyn Bader's Article, How to Get the Most from Couples Therapy will help you to prepare for our work together. 

 

During our initial sessions, we will work together to identify your strengths and explore areas like your family history, past experiences, and the messages you’ve received about love, relationships, and sexuality. We will also spend time identifying your goals for therapy and creating a shared understanding of what needs to happen in our work together for it to be successful. 

​

Throughout our time together, we will check in about your experience to ensure that we are spending our time and energy in a way that feels supportive of your growth and development as an individual and as a partner.
