You Do Not Have to Be on the Brink to Start Counseling

Couples come to us at every stage. You might see yourselves in one of these.

Same argument, again

The topic changes but the fight feels familiar.

Feeling like roommates

You share a home and a schedule but not much connection.

Trust has been shaken

Something happened and you want to repair it, not ignore it.

Talking turns into fighting

Or into silence, which can feel just as lonely.

A big change is straining things

A new baby, a move, a job change, or a loss.

Getting ready for marriage

You want a strong foundation before you say yes for life.

FAQ

Common Questions About Couples Counseling

What if my partner is reluctant to attend therapy?

It is common for one partner to be hesitant. You are welcome to come to a first session alone or together to talk through concerns. Many reluctant partners find the experience helpful once they see it is a safe, non-judgmental space.

How long does couples therapy take?

It depends on your goals and what you are working through. Some couples work on a specific concern for a focused period, while others prefer longer-term support. Your therapist will talk with you about a realistic timeline and check in on progress along the way.

Do you accept insurance for couples counseling?

We accept many major insurance plans, but coverage for couples counseling varies by plan. Schedule your appointment, send us your insurance information, and our team will verify your benefits 24 hours before your session. You can also call us at (801) 410-0542 with questions.

What is the difference between couples therapy and marriage counseling?

The terms are used interchangeably. Both refer to therapy for romantic partners who want to improve their relationship. We work with married couples, engaged couples, dating couples, and partners of all backgrounds.

Do you offer premarital counseling?

Yes. Premarital counseling helps engaged couples build a strong foundation by talking through expectations, communication styles, conflict resolution, and shared values before marriage.

We are not married, or one of us is anxious about commitment. Can this still help?

Yes. Relationship anxiety and attachment patterns often show up well before marriage, and working through them together, or individually, can make a real difference.

Can we do couples counseling online?

Yes. Many couples meet with their therapist by secure telehealth from anywhere in Utah, and we also see couples in person at our Orem and Pleasant Grove offices.

Can couples therapy save a relationship?

Many couples find that therapy significantly improves their relationship when both partners are committed to the process. Therapy cannot guarantee an outcome, but it gives you tools, insight, and support to make informed decisions about your future together.
