UPDATE: I am not currently scheduling couples in my practice due to transitioning to an online-only presence (but leaving the content below in case this changes).
After years of working with couples in weekly, one-hour sessions, I started taking a new approach. While one-hour sessions are adequate for most individual work (and for couples who have developed a bit of positive momentum), so much time in a session with couples is spent catching up and taking turns sharing it often seems we are just getting started when our hour is up. So, for the past few years, I have required new couples to start with double sessions, and we cut back to regular sessions only after we’ve gained enough momentum to make those single-hour sessions effective. I now only accept new couples when my calendar can add a new extended session block consistently, and such openings may not be available for months at a time – please understand if I can’t accommodate you at this time!
Couples work....
Sometimes couples counseling involves learning how to repair, and sometimes the focus is just on learning how to enjoy. There are countless approaches to couples therapy, and although the techniques I choose vary from couple, I always work from the assumption that couples CAN fix what is fixable, and can learn to turn the “unsolvable" problems into minor instead of major hurdles.
