Couples Therapy
Support for building stronger, more connected relationships.
Relationships are complex, and even the strongest partnerships face challenges. At Rise Therapy NW, we work with couples navigating communication breakdowns, unresolved conflict, life transitions, parenting differences, intimacy struggles, and moments of disconnection or betrayal.
Whether in crisis or simply wanting to grow together, couples therapy can help you reconnect, rebuild trust, and move forward with more clarity and compassion.
Couples therapy is for partners seeking deeper understanding and healthier ways of relating.
We support couples facing:
Frequent arguments or communication issues
Emotional disconnection or distance
Infidelity or breaches of trust
Differences in parenting, values, or long-term goals
Transitions such as marriage, parenthood, relocation, or loss
You don’t have to wait until things fall apart—therapy can be a proactive step toward a more secure, resilient relationship.
