To paraphrase an old but true saying, “the only thing constant in life is change.” One thing that was left out is that change can often times be scary and hard. Just when we think things are going good, life has a way of throwing us a curve ball just to make things “interesting.” Whether you are experiencing difficulty with coping with changes related to your emotions, your relationships, your job, your health, or just life in general, counseling can help. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with approximately 12 years of experience with working with children, adults, families, and couples. I am proud to have an all-inclusive practice that serves clients and families of varying ethnicities, sexual orientations, socio-economic status, and other cultural backgrounds. I take pride in providing a comfortable and welcoming (yet always professional) environment where clients are encouraged to be open and honest. My primary goal is to help my clients to uncover their innate ability to adapt and thrive despite any challenges they may face. Common issues that I help with include depression, anxiety, self-esteem, anger management, relationship stressors, behavior issues, trauma and abuse, stress management, relational codependency, suicidal thoughts, and grief. I utilize a holistic/systems approach to counseling in order to understand the impact that a client’s mental, social, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being may have on the issues that they are facing. While I believe quality training is important, I also believe that it is just as important to find a counselor that is a good “fit.” I would the love the opportunity to see if I am a good fit to help assist you on your journey. With online counseling (within the state of Georgia), and 24/7 scheduling, you are just one mouse click/phone call of way, so…let’s HEAL together!

Thriveworks Couples therapy helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. It is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy include:
Couples therapy works by helping couples identify and better navigate their unique challenges. Following an initial assessment of the couple in terms of strengths and needs, the therapist would then discuss their therapeutic goals and any possible approaches or ways of working together as therapist and couple.Couples attend sessions together, whether they meet in person or by video. In addition to regular couples therapy sessions, each partner may also be asked to attend a few individual sessions to supplement their progress. This will allow their counselor to get to know each individual better, assess each of their personal needs, and develop the very best treatment plan moving forward.
Couples therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend couples therapy for 12 weeks. However, couples therapy may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.
Relationships are rife with disagreement, miscommunication, and other challenges. These can threaten the very existence of the relationship, but when couples do work through these difficulties, they often come out stronger than before. A big problem, though, is that sometimes we don’t have the proper tools, knowledge, or support to work through the challenge at hand. Fortunately, a couples counselor’s job is to equip us with these tools, provide the knowledge we’re lacking, and support us along the way.
“Commitment requires a willingness to sit with unresolved conflict matched with a strong resolve to soften your hearts together.”
–Sevin Philips, MFT
It’s no secret that relationships can be hard and completely frustrating. The good news is that if you and your partner need help improving or preserving the quality of your relationship, a couples counselor at Thriveworks Savannah can assist you. These professionals specialize in helping couples just like you resolve their problems and create a happier, healthier relationship. If you think you could benefit from working with a couples counselor, call Thriveworks Savannah today.
Most couples can benefit in some way from couples counseling: those who just started dating, those who are recently engaged and planning a wedding, and those who have been married for years. In summary, it doesn’t matter how long you and your partner have been together. Additionally, it doesn’t matter if there are a handful of problems you need to address or if, on the other hand, there are mere concerns you want to bring up now, so they don’t hurt you later. Whatever the case, you can find value in working with a couples counselor at Thriveworks Savannah. That said, there are relationship issues that commonly bring couples to counseling. These include:
These are common topics discussed in couples counseling: many couples struggle to communicate their needs, while others are left reeling after one partner cheats on the other. Additionally, many experience intimacy issues for no apparent reason, while others struggle with financial crises or can’t agree on parenting styles. There are, of course, other issues not covered here that couples address in couples counseling.
It’s common for one partner to be open to and excited for couples counseling, while the other is more on the fence. If your partner is unsure, you can utilize these tips to encourage them to give couples counseling a shot:
Your partner might get nervous when you bring up couples counseling because they think you are checking out of the relationship or admitting defeat. In reality, you are showing your dedicated commitment and admitting that your relationship could benefit from some professional assistance. Explain this. Reiterate that you are a team, and you are going on this journey toward a happier, healthier relationship together.
It’s also common for someone to refuse or forego counseling because they don’t fully understand what it involves and how it can help. If this is the case with your partner, explain how couples counseling works and offer proof that it helps. You can present them with statistics: for examples, the Journal of Marital and Family therapy published a study that found 97.4% of couples surveyed were satisfied with couples counseling and 93% said it helped them better handle their problems.
The goal here isn’t to trick your partner into doing something they don’t want to do. Instead, it’s to explain the benefits of couples counseling, in hopes that they will see its value and possibly agree to give it a try.
