Couples Counseling

Are you lonely in your marriage? Are you feeling out of love with your spouse? Are you feeling hopeless because you wonder if your relationship will ever be what you long for it to be? Or is your marriage in crisis because there has been infidelity or addiction involved? Couples counseling may be what you need. I can help you create a closer, deeper, and more intimate relationship.

Dr. Christine Bielinksi: Couple Counseling

What type of Couples Counseling are you seeking?

Most couples want to feel loved, safe, and secure in their relationship. They want to feel connected and bonded in a more deeply satisfying way. As your counselor, I will work hard to help the two of you develop healthy ways of communicating and interacting with one another so that you find lasting change and fulfillment in your relationship. I know you may feel nervous when starting therapy, but I will work hard to make you feel comfortable while working with me.

If your relationship has been impacted by infidelity, addiction, or perhaps you are on the verge of divorce, I can help. Hope, healing, and forgiveness are possible. An affair does not always mean the end of a relationship. While it will take hard work to rebuild trust, relationships can oftentimes emerge stronger and more richly satisfying after counseling. I also offer relationship counseling in large blocks of times such as in two or three hour increments or over a weekend.

Congratulations on your decision to marry! Preparing for a marriage can be both an exciting and sometimes stressful time. Many couples spend more time planning a wedding than preparing for a healthy and deeply satisfying marriage. A marriage is for a lifetime and the time and energy you spend in preparation for your commitment and future is important. Premarital counseling will help you address your strengths and areas for growth in your relationship. The sessions can be done in a condensed weekend or over the course of weeks.

What you can expect…

I will meet with you together for the first session. After our initial session, I will meet one-on-one with each of you. Following these sessions, I will meet with the both of you again, as a couple, so we can identify your unhealthy patterns of relating to one another. Finally, our subsequent sessions will involve working hard toward developing ways for you to communicate and relate so that your relationship will be healthy and deeply satisfying.

I utilize a well-researched and highly effective model for couples counseling…

I utilize Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT) and have advanced training in EFT.

EFT is different from the typical couples therapy. EFT was developed by Drs. Sue Johnson and Les Greenberg in the 1980s. It is grounded in research and it works! Research studies have found that 70%-75% of couples undergoing EFT find that they can move from distress to recovery, and 90% show great improvement in their relationship. Their recovery is long standing.
