Most couples come to couples counseling or couples therapy because they sense a loss of connection and feelings, are having problems communicating, are repeating negative cycles of criticism and withdrawal, are constantly fighting about sex or are avoiding each other completely. We are highly trained marriage counselors in emotionally focused therapy (EFT) to help couples heal.
Premarital counseling improves marriages by 30%! Begin your happily ever after with help from the marital experts. Prepare for the marriage not just the wedding. Make the best investment in your marriage during the most flexible time you will ever have during your relationship.
Unfortunately, both women and men have affairs. Your worry may have increased because your partner is acting suspicious – like not explaining their absences, not letting you see their texts, having sudden unexplained absences or recently having changed passwords. Or perhaps you are the partner who feels tempted by another alluring person. If you feel this way, you need couples counseling immediately!
At Awakenings we have several therapists who specialize in Christian marriage counseling and Christian sex therapy. They feel faith is central to the way people become whole and believe that God is part of the three-fold knot keeping Christian couples together. Our Christian counselors (all our counselors!) know that sex therapy is moral ground and will help you find the erotic life God intended for your marriage.
Talking about sex is tough and if you’ve been marginalized in our culture because of your sexual orientation or gender identity, the thought of going to sex therapy may make you feel particularly anxious. At Awakenings we understand the difficulties of coming out, of being different from the majority, of having suffered both major and micro traumas about who you are. We are committed to LGBTQ persons feeling comfortable, safe and accepted….
For potential clients who are out of town but wish to work with Awakenings’ clinician, we offer flexible length intensives. These intensives last between one and three days, and are often scheduled over the weekend.
