Discernment counseling
For about 30% of couples seeking counseling, one partner is very uncertain about staying in the relationship. If this is you, or your partner, then traditional relationship counseling may fail because one of you is unsure about staying or leaving. Discernment counseling is counseling for couples who are at a standstill in their relationship. Often these couples are unsure whether they want to stay together or get divorced. This type of therapy aims to help couples understand their options and avoid prematurely terminating their marriage. Additionally, it helps couples decide if they truly are committed to staying together, rather than wasting time and energy in traditional couples therapy.
Sex Therapy
Online or in-person, sex therapy is designed to decrease stigma and distress around sex and intimacy, while increasing pleasure and understanding.
The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination.
