Couples Therapy – Helping Improve Relationships

Each counselor at North Brooklyn Marriage & Family Therapy takes a personalized approach to your unique relationship. Uncovering your relationship can lead to major breakthroughs, but it can be uncomfortable — you and your partner might feel angry, sad, or frustrated while discussing certain issues. Your couples therapist is there with you through the entire journey acting as a guide. They have the education and experience necessary to lead you through difficult emotions to find effective solutions.

Relationship counseling helps couples dealing with issues around:

• Money
• Parenting
• Sex
• Gambling
• Addiction to drugs or alcohol
• Infidelity
• In-laws
• Frequent arguing
• Emotional distance

No matter your relationship struggles, the team at North Brooklyn Marriage & Family Therapy has the experience, compassion, and insight to help you work through the problem.

It’s always good to work on your relationship, but there are times when you might not have the experience or distance necessary to address certain problems. Often, couples wait too long before searching for professional help to save their relationship . Unfortunately, the longer they wait, the harder a relationship can be to repair. Of course, even the most damaged relationship can be fixed — it just makes for more intensive work.

North Brooklyn Marriage & Family Therapy has some of the top relationship counselors in the New York City area. We’re ready to provide the advice and neutral insight needed to handle even the most difficult relationship issues.

First, realize that relationship counseling takes two — both you and your partner must want to fix your relationship before beginning. If one of you isn’t fully invested in working on your relationship, the therapy process won’t be as successful.

It’s also important to know what you want to get out of couples therapy. Before beginning, take some time with your partner to write down some attainable goals and where you want to see your relationship in the future.

Make sure you are ready to speak openly and honestly. Relationship counseling is not the place to hide your past or what you feel. But also realize that being open and honest can be tough. Be prepared to go through a range of turbulent emotions with your partner. No matter what comes up, your North Brooklyn Marriage & Family Therapy counselor will be there to lead you to positive outcomes.

Understand that it is normal to be nervous before your first couples therapy session. But remember, you are in good hands. Our therapists have plenty of experience, and the office is warm and welcoming.

Couples therapy is very affordable. As with most counseling, therapy sessions at North Brooklyn Marriage & Family Therapy are out of insurance networks. That said, the team makes sure that sessions are affordable for couples of all backgrounds and budgets.
Depending on the education and experience of your counselor, each session costs between $80 and $200. All the team’s therapists go through extensive training and have the skills needed to support your relationship and the couples therapy process.
