Couples Counseling in Walnut Creek
We provide psychotherapy and couples therapy for people from Martinez, Concord, Clayton, Pleasant Hill, Alamo, Danville, San Ramon, Lafayette, Orinda. In couples counseling, you’ll meet with one of our marriage counselors once a week for 50 minutes, or sometimes for 75 to 80 minutes.
Most of the time the sessions will be together with you and your partner, but occasionally your therapist will meet with each one of you individually. You’ll meet in one of our counseling offices, depending on the counselor assigned to you. Individual therapy is usually 50 min once a week. In the first session, your therapist will get some background information from you and will clarify your goals for working together.
Once your goals are clarified, your marriage counselor will work with both of you to identify the strengths of your relationship and how to build on them, and also the challenges you have and how to understand them. If you have specific questions, our Walnut Creek marriage counselors will be happy to have an initial phone consultation with you. For more information, read what to expect from marriage counseling or our counseling FAQs.
