Couples therapy for Denver couples who are stuck and ready to change something
Relationship counseling for Denver couples & individuals
Does this sound familiar?
You're having the same fight on repeat, and it never actually resolves.
You and your partner feel more like roommates than lovers, and you’re not sure how to reconnect.
You love each other. You also can't get through a week without it escalating into something bigger.
You want the relationship to work out but you’re not sure how to take the next step.
I'm Russ, MFTC. Most couples who find me have already tried talking it out themselves. It didn't work. That's where I come in.
Here's what I hear from most couples and individuals who reach out: they've already tried.
They've had the conversations. They've read the books. One of them may have even suggested therapy before, and it didn't stick. They're not here because they gave up. They're here because nothing else worked.
That usually means they've been trying to fix the topics of their arguments instead of the patterns driving them. Those are different problems, and only one of them responds to effort.
I'm trained in EFT and the Gottman Method. I'm also direct in a way that a lot of therapists aren't. I'll tell you what I'm seeing. I'll name the dynamic. I'll push when I think you need it. I'm also genuinely easy to talk to, which matters more than people expect. You’ll probably even laugh a few times in session.
Before this work, I spent 12 years in consulting and tech. I get the type of person who finds their way to my office. Driven, used to solving problems, not sure why this one won't budge. I get it because I've worked alongside people like that my whole career.
Let’s talk and figure out if we’d be a good fit to work together.
