Couples Counseling
Is All About..
Creating Connection
It is all about creating deep emotional connection and lasting bonds with your partner. When we feel connected we feel safe and we have a solid base, our relationship is resilient and can handle the ups and downs and even the hard times of a relationship. Sometimes a partner can trigger old wounds from childhood or past relationships if this happens enough, bonds begin to break down, we feel alone, neglected, not loved, or even unlovable. Worse yet, fresh wounds or betrayal from your partner can devastate and ruin your relationship.
We can help!! Patrick has over 15 years of experience in couples counseling and is a certified EFT therapist.

Vision
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is a form of short-term therapy that aims to improve couples relationships by rekindling the physical and emotional bond that can get sacrificed to disappointment in a partner and alienation from them, a common dynamic in distressed couples. If there is a motto for EFT, it is: “Hold me tight.”
Drawing on research supporting attachment theory, the therapy regards the security of partner connection as the best lever for change in a dysfunctional relationship and a necessary source of both couple and individual growth. Love, in short, is transformative. Restoration of the emotional ties enables partners to be physically and psychologically open and responsive to each other so that they can construct a mutually supportive and satisfying relationship in the moment and for the future.
