A Full Relationship Workup for Couples
In couples counseling, your relationship deserves the same level of care and attention that an individual receives in therapy. That’s why every couple I work with begins with a full relationship workup, which includes a personalized treatment plan filled with evidence-based interventions.
These tools are designed to help you both say what you mean and listen with understanding — building healthier patterns of communication and connection
The Gottman Relationship Checkup
As part of this process, each person completes the Gottman Relationship Checkup (GRC). This research-based assessment allows both partners to reflect on key areas of the relationship, from communication and intimacy to conflict and trust.
The results highlight your relationship’s strengths while identifying challenges that may be creating distance or tension. Together, we’ll use these insights to address perpetual issues and practice new ways of resolving conflict constructively.
With this comprehensive approach, couples counseling goes beyond surface-level problem solving. You’ll receive clear feedback, tailored strategies, and ongoing support designed to strengthen your bond and give your relationship the tools it needs to thrive.
