For Couples
Our couples therapy in Coral Gables gives you and your partner a structured setting where each of you has room to speak and be heard. We help you understand the patterns behind your conflicts and change how you respond to each other, whether you're facing a recent crisis or problems that have built up over years.
In-person office: 3081 Salzedo Street, Suite 202, Coral Gables, FL 33134
What Brings Couples In
We begin with an assessment, which includes some individual time with each partner, and then agree on a clear focus. Our approach is based on the Gottman framework, with Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) added when attachment needs are driving the conflict.
If a conversation starts to escalate, your therapist will step in and slow things down. That's a normal part of couples therapy, and it keeps the session useful for both of you.
We meet with couples at 3081 Salzedo Street, Suite 202. Sessions run 50 to 60 minutes, and most couples begin with weekly appointments. You're both welcome to join the free 5 to 10 minute consultation.
Couples therapy isn't appropriate when there is ongoing intimate partner violence. In that situation, we'll help you find safer sources of support.
More About Couples Therapy
Lining up two calendars is often the hardest practical part of couples therapy. Combining in-person sessions at our Salzedo Street office with video sessions, when you're both in Florida, can help you keep a steady rhythm through busy weeks.
Bring a recent argument you both remember, along with a sense of what you'd like to feel more of as a couple.
You don't need to agree on what the problem is before the first session. Seeing it differently is common, and talking through those differences is often where the most useful conversations start.
