At Behr Psychology, we offer marriage and premarital therapy and work with inter-racial, inter-ethnic, and inter-religious couples, couples with children, couples planning a family, couples splitting up, and couples wanting to improve their communication skills. Our psychologists are all culturally aware, LGBTQIA+ friendly, and accepting of all lifestyle choices.
You can expect relationship therapy sessions where both partners work with a therapist to explore and address relationship dynamics. You can expect to work with a highly trained therapist to set goals from therapy and address the issues that threaten or weaken your relationship in a safe and impartial environment. Therapy usually occurs weekly, and each session lasts about one hour.
Couples counseling can benefit any couple. Whether you want to improve mutual understanding, develop effective communication and conflict resolution skills, strengthen emotional connection, or rekindle intimacy, our qualified therapists can help.
Therapy for couples also provides a safe and unbiased setting to address financial disagreements and parenting style differences that create conflict without a relationship. Finally, couples therapy is a supportive place to recover from infidelity and rebuild trust.
We will help you to build healthy communication skills and avoid getting stuck in unhealthy and unhelpful cycles.
To begin couples psychotherapy:
Look for a therapist with specific training in couples or marriage therapy. Credentials and experience in dealing with specific relationship challenges are vital. Consider their therapy style to ensure they meet your needs.
Most therapists provide an initial consultation to discuss your goals and how they may help.
At Behr Psychology, we offer in-person consultations at our Midtown West and Upper West Side offices and online sessions for those in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Florida, South Carolina, and California.
