Why Couples Haven for Your Relationship Therapy Needs?

You’ve tried to put in the work, but realize something profound has got to change. Maybe you’ve been meaning to get starting in couples therapy, but weekly schedules are so hectic, and you have no interest in putting your relationship on hold to sit on a waitlist for couples counseling (sometimes for months!).

If this is familiar, Couples Haven was designed specifically with you in mind! I realize how important it is to DO the work, not simply endure the hardships. I see so many couples forget to date each other—or, more importantly, forget HOW to date each other!

Quite often, the safety and mutual trust to share these thoughts has diminished, leaving them stuck and fearing the scary “D” word (divorce!). Let’s revamp your connection before it gets to that point.

Nestled on the outskirts of Charlotte, North Carolina, Couples Haven provides deep dive support where you can expect to get to the heart of the problem quickly (because the standard 50-min model of therapy is clearly not a one-size-fits-all!). Find my therapy offerings below, and click the Get In Touch button to get started with online or in-person marriage counseling today!

My Approach

A central focus of our work together is through the lens of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) experiential therapy, which means that I believe experiences (emotional responses, activities, role-plays, etc.) within the session is the anchor of strengthening a secure attachment, as well as the core foundation for growth and healing.

This means that you can expect to leave couples therapy sessions having experienced connectedness and grown your intimacy in real time. Your efforts to replicate these experiences outside of sessions will amplify your progress exponentially!

Your shared emotional experiences, beliefs, perceptions are the heart of connection. Together, we will rediscover a strong, safe bond for your relationship, allowing you to interact in new and meaningful, lasting ways!

Virtual and In-Person Therapy Offerings

Traditional Couples and Marriage Therapy sessions are ongoing 80-minute sessions,often an ideal option for couples who prefer accountability and continual support as they address concerns in their relationship. Ongoing relationship therapy sessions give couples the opportunity to practice using the relationship skills they learn in sessions independently between sessions. We will co-create achievable goals, personalized for your relationship needs and empower you to rekindle your spark together! 

Looking for 1:1 Relationship Therapy sessions? Not everyone’s relationship journey starts with both partners in the room. Whether your partner isn’t ready for therapy or you’re focusing on your personal role in your relationship, individual therapy offers a space for deep self-exploration and growth. These sessions help you gain clarity, break unhelpful patterns, and develop healthier ways to communicate and connect. Through an emotionally focused approach, you’ll build self-awareness, process relationship challenges, and implement strategies that create meaningful change—whether within your current partnership or in future relationships.

Traditional Couples & Individual Counseling Sessions

Couples Therapy Intensives

Welcome to the VIP of therapy for couples! If you’re looking for relief from your concerns now, couples therapy intensives were designed just for you. Couples intensives are powerful, potent, short-term therapy sessions designed to address specific issues or achieve significant progress in a brief period, often involving multiple hours of therapy over a few days or weeks.

The accelerated transformation that a retreat-style couples counseling intensive provides is for those who want to experience deep dive healing, without disruption to their weekly work/home life. Traditional 50-minute therapy models limit deep dive work, leaving many couples waiting for relief now rather than desperately waiting to unpack when they return the following week.

Relationship intensives are tailored to your relationship concerns, allowing you to experience months of therapy in 1-3 days, allowing you to get to the root of your issues and goes beyond what ‘primary care’ offers. Most clients who prefer an intensive want immediate relief, uninterrupted progress—free from distractions — saving them time and money in the long run.
