Strengths-Based Catholic Couples Therapy

“Love is to will the good of the other”

St. Thomas Aquinas

Summa Theologiae

Couples therapy is best done when you can come together with good will to understand the intent of the other.
This allows you to disagree lovingly with each other, and find ways that you can create a relationship that reflects your hopes and dreams. 
It's goal-oriented, pragmatic, and life-changing.

A safe space for your relationship with a positive anthropology…

Strengths-Based therapy takes pains, wrongdoings, and injustice seriously. And we believe in the key to justice is through grace, rather than retribution.

This is not an approach where either person is made to feel like they are the problem in the relationship or at fault for the relationship crumbling.  
We don't spend time enumerating all the terrible things you've done to each other, all the things you dislike about the other.
Instead, we take a genuine accounting together of the pain caused by both of you within the relationship, examine how each of you are responsible for these pains, and then spend the sessions making plans for the hopes you each have for the future of the relationship.

Through the lens of hope, the pains and hurts in the relationship are converted to lessons and growthful moments.

Is there a Catholic Couples therapist?

“When we love we are fulfilling our deepest need and becoming most fully ourselves, most fully human. Loving is what we are programmed to do, what we were designed for by our Creator.” Pope Benedict XVI, World Youth Day 2008
