Couples Counseling

Couples Counseling:

“A strong relationship requires choosing to love each other even in those moments when you struggle to like each other.” – Dave Willis

Relationships are one of our greatest sources of connection—and, at times, our greatest source of stress. Whether you are building a relationship, strengthening one, or navigating its most challenging moments, couples therapy provides a space to understand each other more deeply and move forward with clarity and intention.

At Westchester Psychological Associates, we work with couples at every stage of their relationship—from dating and premarital work, to long-term partnerships and marriage, to co-parenting, separation, and divorce. We also proudly support LGBTQIA+ couples, honoring the unique strengths, identities, and lived experiences each partnership brings.


Who We Work With

We support couples who are:

  • Dating or engaged and wanting to build a strong foundation

  • In long-term relationships seeking deeper connection or better communication

  • Parenting and feeling the strain of balancing roles, responsibilities, and emotional needs

  • Navigating conflict, repeated patterns, or growing apart

  • Recovering from breaches of trust or painful ruptures

  • Exploring separation, redefining their relationship, or transitioning into healthy co-parenting

  • LGBTQIA+ partners facing relationship, identity, or family-building challenges

No matter where you are as a couple, therapy is a place to feel heard, understood, and supported.


What We Focus On

Couples therapy may include:

  • Improving communication and emotional connection

  • Understanding recurring patterns and breaking unhelpful cycles

  • Navigating disagreements with care instead of escalation

  • Managing stress around parenting, work, or life transitions

  • Strengthening intimacy, trust, or closeness

  • Making decisions about the future of the relationship

  • Transitioning into respectful, collaborative co-parenting (when couples are separating)


Our Approach

Therapy is collaborative, practical, and grounded in evidence-based methods. Sessions focus on helping both partners feel safe bringing their full selves into the room—while learning how to show up for each other with compassion, curiosity, and steadiness.

We work at a pace that feels supportive, and we tailor recommendations and strategies to the specific needs of each couple.


What You Can Expect

Couples often leave therapy with:

  • Clearer communication and healthier conflict patterns

  • Greater emotional attunement and understanding

  • A stronger feeling of partnership

  • More satisfying connection and intimacy

  • Tools that support stability during stress or transition

  • Clarity about next steps in their relationship

Whether your goal is to grow together, repair, reconnect, or navigate a transition with dignity and care—we’re here to support you.
