The Center for Couples & Coparenting Solutions
What We do
We Specialize in Complex Relationship Dynamics
Our partners, whether intact, separated, or divorced, can be a significant source of support. As parents it is even more essential that the coparent relationship remains strong to help us become the individuals, partners, coparents, and parents that we envision.
Built on the foundations of academic research, therapists at the Center for Couples & Coparenting Solutions offer evidence-informed counseling to resolve conflicts, improve communication, and rebuild relationships. Resolving complex family and relationship issues isn’t easy. But through years of commitment to research and practical experience in couple and family dynamics, we can help you overcome these difficulties.
Our therapists work with intact couples with or without children, with post-separation coparents, and with individuals for issues related to relationship distress. We can help you understand how past and current dynamics have affected your relationships, your career, your parenting styles, and your overall happiness. We can help you through the struggles of being a single parent, stepparent, or coparent.
Accessing and applying the latest research on family and relationship dynamics, our specialty therapists can help you lessen the negative impacts of partner and coparent disagreements and hostility on you and your children. Although everyone is different, most clients see the results they desire within 8-10 sessions. And we appreciate busy schedules, so we’re available early mornings and evenings 1-2 days a week.
