Couple's Counseling

Couples counseling based on Sternberg's Triangle of Love theory focuses on helping partners evaluate and strengthen their relationship by examining three key components: 

  • Commitment: The decision to remain dedicated to a relationship and work toward its long-term stability.

  • Passion: The emotional and physical connection that fuels attraction, desire, and excitement within the relationship.

  • Intimacy: The sense of closeness, trust, and emotional bond shared between partners.

 

Through guided discussions and exercises, couples can identify areas of imbalance or growth, gain deeper insights into their emotional connection, and develop strategies to nurture these elements in their relationship. This approach encourages meaningful conversations and fosters understanding, ultimately promoting a healthier and more fulfilling partnership. Aetna, Cigna, Blue Cross and Blue Shield Texas, Horizon Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Jersey, Independence Blue Cross Pennsylvania - Virtual National Network, Quest Behavioral Health, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts, Anthem EAP - Bank of America, Carelon Behavioral Health, United Healthcare (Optum), United Healthcare Medicare Advantage, Oxford (Optum), and Oscar (Optum).
