For whom is couples counseling suitable?
In a world of change, of upheaval of conventions and (newfound) freedoms, it has not necessarily become easier for partners to orient themselves and to bond according to their needs. Couples counseling offers the valuable opportunity to find ways together to build a deeper connection and live more fulfilling partnerships.
In couples counseling, I offer a safe space that welcomes people of all genders and all types of relationships. Your individual needs and desires are the focus, regardless of your identity or relationship model.
What happens in a couples counseling session?
The focus of couples counseling is to first gain a better understanding of each other, to identify ingrained patterns, and to become clear about individual and mutual needs. Through this process, partners can learn to communicate better with each other and develop a more stable bond. Conflicts and tensions are defused and an open, understanding and respectful approach is found (again).
Possible topics for couples counseling

Procedure of a couples counseling
It all starts with a conversation: you, your partner and myself. I take time to get to know your individual concerns and you have the opportunity to tell me about your situation and share your goals for couples counseling.
Our focus in the sessions that follow is on identifying communication patterns, managing conflict, and working together to find solutions that will lead to a stronger partnership. I emphasize an individualized approach, as each partnership is unique.
As a rule, the sessions of couples counseling always take place together with the partners. Sometimes it is appropriate to have additional individual sessions. In this case, all partners are always heard and the results are introduced into the joint process in the follow-up sessions.
If you are curious, please contact me for a non-binding call to get to know each other.
Costs for a couple counseling session
I'd be happy to help you create the kind of relationship you want to live in and love - one that aligns perfectly with your vision and goals. The fee is based on the agreed-upon scope of the couples therapy and the number of participants. You can find details in the fee schedule.
Depending on your needs, couples therapy sessions take place every two weeks or once a month. Couples therapy can also be conducted online. For couples counseling involving more than two partners, please schedule a free introductory phone call in advance so we can determine whether the sessions should include a co-therapist.
