Couples Counseling
Relationships can drift into patterns: some connecting, others stuck on the same argument. When you feel unheard, on edge, or miles apart in the same room, it’s hard to solve anything else. Couples counseling at Emberhaven slows the cycle, helps you understand what’s happening for each partner, and teaches practical communication and repair so conflict de-escalates and trust grows again. We see couples in person in Greensboro and High Point and via secure telehealth across North Carolina (when appropriate for privacy and focus).
Rebuild your connection, together.

How We Treat Couples
Your therapist will tailor an evidence-based plan that fits your history, culture, and goals. We draw primarily from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to strengthen attachment and help you identify the moments where conversations go off the rails. We layer in Gottman-informed skills—soft start-ups, repair attempts, de-escalation, and problem-solving—so you can talk about tough topics without blowing up or shutting down. You’ll learn to spot early warning signs, share needs without blame, and rebuild connection through everyday rituals of trust and friendship. When there’s been betrayal or a major breach, we begin with stabilization and boundaries, then move into accountability, meaning-making, and step-by-step trust-building.
Couples Counseling Sessions At Emberhaven
Most couples start with a joint intake to map the pattern and define clear goals. Your therapist may include brief individual check-ins when clinically helpful, always returning the work to the bond. Sessions are typically on a weekly basis early on, then may taper to biweekly or monthly as communication and repair skills take root. Between meetings, you’ll practice short, doable exercises—structured conversations, repair attempts, appreciation routines, and agreed-upon time-outs—so progress shows up at home. Common outcomes include fewer blowups, faster recovery after conflict, clearer teamwork around parenting and money, renewed intimacy, and a shared plan for staying connected through stress.
We offer appointments in Greensboro and High Point and via telehealth across NC when that format supports privacy and engagement. We accept most major insurances, verify benefits up front, and review costs before you begin.
