The Secret Sauce

While therapy will look different for each couples, there are some common themes. Regardless of the specific reason for starting therapy, you and your partner will likely explore the following:

1-Identify the Cycle

Discover the cycles that keep you stuck and feeling lost and alone. Learn how you fall into these damaging patters, and how to stay out of them.

2-Repair Old Wounds

Find the old wounds that have never been healed, and give them the attention they need to fully heal. Repairs trust, commitment, and safety.

3 - Build Your Future

Begin to reunite in a shared dream for the future, creating a beautiful legacy full of shared meaning
