Couples Counseling

Every couple experiences challenges—whether it’s communication struggles, recurring conflict, loss of connection, or navigating big life transitions. Left unresolved, these challenges can create distance, frustration, and feelings of hopelessness. But with the right support, couples can learn how to repair, rebuild, and strengthen their relationship.

At Sycamore Counseling Services, we specialize in helping couples grow closer and create lasting change. Our work is rooted in the Gottman Method, one of the most researched and trusted approaches to couples therapy. We combine this evidence-based method with faith-informed care, offering you a safe space to explore your relationship through both practical tools and Christian values.

Couples counseling can be helpful if you and your partner are:

  • Feeling stuck in the same arguments without resolution.

  • Struggling to communicate effectively or feel heard.

  • Experiencing emotional distance, lack of intimacy, or loss of connection.

  • Facing trust issues or recovering from betrayal.

  • Preparing for marriage and wanting to build a strong foundation.

  • Dealing with stress from parenting, career changes, or other life transitions.

Whether you’ve been together for a few months or several decades, counseling can help you understand each other more deeply, learn healthier ways to resolve conflict, and rediscover joy in your relationship.

The Gottman Method focuses on building and strengthening the "Sound Relationship House"—a framework of skills and habits that create lasting love. In sessions, we’ll work together on:

  • Improving friendship and intimacy.

  • Building trust and emotional connection.

  • Learning how to manage conflict instead of avoiding or escalating it.

  • Creating shared meaning and vision for your life together.

  • Identifying and changing negative patterns that cause disconnection.

This structured approach gives you both practical tools and a clear path forward—not just temporary fixes.

Reaching out for couples counseling is not a sign of failure—it’s an act of courage and commitment to your relationship. Whether you’re hoping to reconnect, heal old wounds, or strengthen your bond, we are here to walk with you.
