Our Process

Every relationship has unique dynamics, and our process is tailored to meet those needs. Here’s how we work with you:

Initial Consultation:
All potential clients begin the process with a 30-minute consultation with everyone in the relationship. The consultation meeting is an opportunity for you to share your specific needs and goals and for us to explain how our counseling services can help. After we determine that we may be a good fit for your needs, we can begin the formal process of working together.

Assessment & Goal Setting:
In our first few sessions, we’ll work with you to understand the root causes of your challenges and set clear, achievable goals. The assessment will include individual sessions and joint sessions. This will guide the direction of our sessions and ensure you’re making progress.

Therapy & Treatment:
We combine evidence-based therapies that is tailored for each relationship and their needs. Each session is designed to help you gain insight, learn new skills, and transform your relationship dynamics. We’ll continue to adjust and refine our approach based on the evolving needs of your relationship. You’ll be encouraged to practice new skills and behaviors between sessions, and we’ll offer guidance to support your journey in building lasting change. Most of the work will involve sessions where everyone in the relationship will be seen together. There may be times when individual sessions are recommended. As your goals get met and progress are apparent, we will meet less frequently and begin to phase out in the later stage of therapy and prepare for termination of the therapy.

Follow-Up:
After therapy termination, clients are encouraged to arrange follow-up or booster sessions whenever necessary. These sessions can greatly reduce the likelihood of falling back into old, unproductive behaviors. The goal of these follow-up sessions is to refine any relationship skills as needed and assess the effectiveness of the therapy provided.

What To Expect

The journey to start improving your relationship can feel overwhelming, but our process is designed to be as comfortable and empowering as possible. Here’s what you can expect throughout your journey with us:

  • A Safe, Judgment-Free Space: We are committed to create a warm, welcoming environment where everyone in the relationship can feel understood and heard. We value confidentiality and respect, ensuring you feel comfortable to express even the most vulnerable aspects of your lived experience.
  • Active Participation: Therapy is a collaborative process. We will work together, and allow you to be active in your journey. This may involve practicing new skills, reflecting on past behaviors, or engaging in exercises between sessions.
  • Support for Your Relationship: Whether you’re partners, spouses, siblings, or family members, We strive to honor all parties in the relationship equally and create a balanced, respectful atmosphere in every session.
  • Gradual Progress: Building healthier relationships takes time. You’ll notice small changes in your interactions, and over time, these shifts will lead to more profound improvements in how you connect with each other.
  • Long-Term Tools for Success: We aim to give you more than just temporary fixes. By the end of your sessions, you’ll walk away with effective tools and transformative  strategies to continue nurturing your relationship long after therapy ends.
  • Antiracist & Culturally-Humble: We are committed to antiracism, anti-oppressive practices, and justice-oriented principles. We recognize and respect the unique backgrounds, experiences, and identities that each client brings to the therapeutic process. Our work is informed by an understanding of systems and how societal structures impact relationships, ensuring that we consider these broader contexts in our sessions. This framework is designed to empower you and your partner, fostering a space where growth, healing, and understanding can thrive while addressing and challenging any forms of inequality or harm.
