Marriage & Couples Therapy and Conflict Resolution
Couples therapy at Convex Therapy supports partners in strengthening connection, improving communication, and building lasting relationship satisfaction. We honor the unique story of each partnership and use evidence-based, science-informed methods to understand relational patterns and support meaningful change. Our foundation is the Gottman Method, a proven approach that helps partners identify strengths, address challenges, and transform difficult interactions into opportunities for deeper understanding and resilience.
We also integrate conversations about sexuality and intimacy into couples work in a way that is safe, affirming, and inclusive. Relationships and sexual well-being are deeply connected, and exploring both together allows for a more holistic approach to relational health for couples of all identities and structures, including LGBTQ+ couples, non-monogamous, and polyamorous partnerships.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy at Convex Therapy helps couples develop a more open, adaptive, and meaningful way of relating to their thoughts, emotions, and shared experiences. Rather than trying to eliminate discomfort or avoid conflict, ACT integrates mindfulness, acceptance, and values-based action to help you stay present with one another and respond in ways that support your relationship. This approach fosters clarity, resilience, and intentional change, empowering you to navigate challenges together while strengthening connection, understanding, and partnership.
Gottman Method Couples Therapy helps partners replace reactive patterns with clear, constructive communication. Using research-backed tools from the Gottman approach, couples learn how to express concerns without criticism, listen with empathy, and navigate conflict without escalation. This work focuses on practical skills such as softened start-ups, repairing tension in the moment, and understanding each partner’s underlying needs. The result is a stronger foundation for productive conversations, healthier conflict resolution, and a more respectful, supportive partnership.
