Marriage Counseling Queen Creek Az - Marriage Counselor

Marriage Counseling Services are near me

 Marriage Counseling in Queen Creek Az provides couples with the tools and resources they need to improve communication, resolve conflicts, and develop a stronger marriage. Oftentimes, marriages go through rough patches that can be difficult to navigate without professional help. Marriage counselors can help identify negative patterns and behavior, and offer strategies for changing those patterns. During couples counseling we can establish goals for the relationship.

Relationships play such a key role in our self-esteem and shape the perspectives we build our lives upon. Our families of origin serve as the original foundation in our lives and impact the type of family environment we will create as well as the behaviors we will exhibit as adults. Couples coaching assists us in understanding how our family of origin plays an important role in shaping our adult emotions, mental health, feelings around grief, and visions for our future. Our understanding of finances, grief, depression, sex, children, career, family life, etc. is often formed while we are still adolescents.

As we become more aware and understanding of what has shaped our lives, we can play a more intentional role in creating our life in a meaningful way. We don't look back to stay there. We look back for reference as we endeavor together to shape the future behaviors and environment we are wanting.

Is your marriage in a rut? Don't wait, get support today.

If you're struggling in your marriage, don't wait to seek guidance. Unfortunately research shows marriages wait up to 6 years or more before getting counseling.  Waiting for years to get help can lead to divorce. It doesn't have to be that way for your marriage or your family. A marriage counselor can help, there is no need to wait.  Everyday Hope Relentless is open and offers couples counseling specifically for married couples looking for therapy. We understand the unique challenges that marriages can face, and we're here to help you overcome them.  Our marriage counselors are experienced and trained in working with struggling couples, have graduated with masters degree in marriage and family therapy, undergraduate degree in psychology, and have experience teaching complicated counseling concepts in an easy-to-understand process. Our team members specialize in using a positive and encouraging counseling style.  Life presents plenty of its own challenges. Many of our clients have highlighted how encouraging and life-giving our coaches are.

 Couples Counseling topics:

 Effective Communication Skills

The focus will be to improve positive communication.   We'll help you learn how to express your feelings and perspectives more effectively, and we'll also work on active listening skills.  Counseling will explore destructive communication patterns that are creating relationship challenges, and how to replace them with life-giving conversations. 

One of the most common topics during couples counseling is managing the stress that is created during the day to day chaos of life.    Marriage Counseling is about the process of creating a safe environment where each person can be heard, valued, and collectively the marriage can move forward with unity.

 Conflict Resolution:

It's normal for couples to argue and disagree from time to time, but it's important to learn how to resolve those arguments in a healthy way.  In fact, if a marriage is not experiencing disagreements on a consistent basis, it may be a sign that one person has shut down and stopped sharing their perspective on life.

An impactful marriage counselor teaches clients techniques for conflict resolution without creating additional trauma for you or your spouse. Families that learn to discuss difficult conversations openly and honestly will build a solid foundation of trust and connection. Couples counseling is about how we effectively teach relationships not to run and hide from difficult conversations, but rather approach the challenging seasons and topics with a level of confidence and knowledge.

Love Languages & Physical Touch

This session will focus on building affection in your relationship.  We'll help you identify the barriers to connecting, and we'll work on ways to overcome them.

Often men think intimacy and sex are one and the same.  Women on the other hand often communicate that intimacy and sex have some similarities but are also unique from one another.  Each marriage is unique.  The solution for building connection is not to copy another couple but to have an open and trust-building dialogue to find out what works for you and your spouse.

Family Finances

Money is one of the most common sources of conflict for couples.  We'll help you develop a budget that works for both the saver and the spender in the relationship. Money is often heavily impacted by the family we grew up in.  For many of our clients, money was one of the main topics that led to division and feelings of marital isolation.

Today there are dozens of budgeting tools out there.  Our counseling will focus less on the do's and don'ts of budgeting and more on gaining unity with your spouse and the emotions that often surround finances.

Physical Health and Marriage

The role physical fitness plays in marriage is often underestimated. Good physical strength is essential to a happy and fulfilling relationship. Poor physical shape can lead to tension and ultimately contribute to the breakdown of a marriage.

There are a number of ways in which physical health can impact marriage. One of the most obvious is that poor physical strength can reduce sexual connection. When one or both partners are in poor health, they may be less interested in sex, and less able to enjoy it when they do have sex. This can lead to frustration, resentment, and even betrayal.

Another way that physical health can impact marriage is by causing financial strain. Medical bills can be a major source of financial stress for couples, especially if one partner is consistently battling sickness. This financial stress can put a strain on the relationship and can lead to arguments or anxiety.

Spiritual - Faith

Hope Relentless is based in Arizona.  For many of the families in our community, faith is a foundational principle that brings strength and stability to the individuals, the marriage, and the family as a whole. 

Hope Relentless founder Sarah-Gayle is a Christian and personally understands the value and strength that a vibrant and active faith provides.  During the consultation, the importance and role of religion can be discussed to best understand how faith impacts the marriage.

 Married and Happy

Have fun and experience adventures with your spouse.

A marriage is a partnership between two people who love each other and are committed to spending their lives together.   Married couples who make time for fun and adventure are often the happiest.

So, if you're looking to add some more excitement to your marriage, make it a priority to date one another. Yes, Date Night.  There is power in laughter, joy, music, and great food.  Especially when these experiences are together. When was the last moment you each experienced something new together? A new restaurant. A new community. A new country.

Life can get busy. Couples that prioritize one another and their partner's respective dreams consistently communicate high levels of marital satisfaction.  So consider this your invite to have FUN.
