How to Find A Couples Counselor

All couples face challenges from time to time. It’s perfectly normal to disagree, or experience feelings of disappointment, anger or sadness in a relationship once in a while. But you need to find a couples counselor  to mend your relationship if you are experiencing any of the following:

  • You are having the same argument over and over again
  • You are constantly “walking on eggshells”
  • You are experiencing physical or emotional abuse
  • Yelling and name calling are common
  • Alcohol or drugs are destroying your relationship
  • You are having an affair (or contemplating one)
  • You have discovered infidelity
  • You feel something fundamental is “missing” for you
  • You are contemplating divorce

If you urgently need someone to talk to, you can call me for a free 15-minute consultation at 720-514-9098.

Relationship dynamics change over time, and can be challenging to navigate. If your bond seems to be breaking, or you simply don’t see eye to eye on issues of importance to you, it might be time to seek a professional therapist. The right couples counselor can help alter destructive patterns, navigate a safe passage through a crisis, and even save a marriage from divorce.

You need to find the best couples counseling for your specific situation, but how to go about that? Who will be the right fit? Who can truly understand your dynamic, and change it for the better?

I Can Help You Find The Right Couples Therapist

I worked for Child Welfare of Boulder County for almost twenty years, first as a social worker for abused and neglected children, teens and their families, then as the supervisor of a team of social workers across Boulder County. I worked closely and collaboratively with a variety of different therapists, attorneys, guardian ad litems, judges, probation officers, residential care facilities, and schools. I have worked with hundreds of therapists over the years. Over and over again, I witnessed how the right therapist would dramatically improve a couples’ relationship. Indeed, it can be transformative.

I Am Not A Directory

I am here to personally help you. Align With A Therapist is not a directory—there are plenty of those websites out there, and therapists pay the directory for their listing. By contrast, the therapists in my network do not pay me to be a member. I am doing this because I truly believe my personal experience with hundreds of therapists in Boulder County can help you find exactly the right therapist for your relationship, saving you money and valuable time. You can call me for a free 15-minute consultation at 720-514-9098. If you are not able to reach me immediately please leave me a message and I will return your call. Or please contact me via email, suzy@alignwithatherapist.com.

Navigating the complex task of choosing the right couples therapist can be daunting. It is not uncommon for couples to go from one therapist to the next for months in a quest to find the right one. This can be expensive, time-consuming, confusing and frustrating for you and your partner, who may reject the entire process in the first place. I can quickly steer you to just the right professional, alleviating needless frustration.

Typical challenges that couples face include:

  • Affair recovery
  • Sex and intimacy
  • Communication breakdown/lost connection
  • Lack of emotional or romantic connection
  • Navigating divorce
  • Alcohol or drug addiction issues
  • Mental health issues
  • Fighting over finances
  • Parents of preemies
  • Blended families
  • In-laws and relatives
  • Stress related to medical issues
  • Difficult ex-spouse
