About Alpharetta Couples & Marriage Counseling
The willingness to feel vulnerable and to be open about your feelings is essential to real intimacy. We provide emotionally focused couples therapy sessions in Alpharetta that helps to develop problem-solving skills, improve communication skills, and tackle specific issues. Our marriage counselors work with couples to build a toolbox of coping skills that will help to improve their relationship.
Couples Often Experience Communication Issues
Communication is a fundamental skill for building connection and contact. What we say and how we say it has a powerful effect on bringing us closer together or farther apart. Research shows that communicating effectively will help partners feel heard and validated. Couples seek marriage counseling most often when they have experienced a distinct lack of communication and need assistance in regaining that connection.
