Individual Therapy: A Safe Place to Explore Relationship Challenges

At Couples Counseling of Denver, I provide individual therapy for relationship issues to help you overcome unhealthy relationship patterns and prepare for a healthier relationship in the future.

Individual therapy will help if…

  • You’re tired of relationships that don’t work out.
  • You’re confused because you don’t understand what keeps going wrong. You might wonder if there is something wrong with you.
  • You’ve tried and tried…and your relationships never work out.
  • You have been to therapy in the past and it didn’t help…or it didn’t help enough.
  • It’s painful. It’s frustrating and discouraging.
  • You question whether you’ll ever have a fulfilling relationship.

Individual therapy for relationship issues can help with:

  • You’re grieving the loss of a relationship.
  • Your relationships are fraught with conflict, an empty emotional distance, or both.
  • You feel overly jealous or insecure with your partners.
  • You have trouble trusting as you’ve been hurt too many times.
  • You repeatedly feel rejected.
  • You’ve suffered emotional, physical, or sexual abuse in relationships.
  • You’re wondering if you should stay or leave a relationship that you’re currently in.

You may feel alone and lonely. BUT, you certainly are NOT alone.
