Relationship & Couples
Therapy
Relationships take work, and sometimes, life gets in the way. Daily stress, unresolved past wounds, or miscommunication can create barriers to intimacy and understanding. Whether you're navigating the ups and downs of a long-term partnership, facing challenges in a newer relationship, or seeking to rebuild trust, we’re here to help. Our therapists work with couples of all backgrounds and identities to foster healthier, more fulfilling relationships by addressing issues such as:
-
Communication challenges, including learning how to express needs effectively, active listening, and reducing misunderstandings.
-
Conflict resolution strategies to help partners navigate disagreements in a constructive, respectful way.
-
Rebuilding trust after breaches, infidelity, or other ruptures that have impacted the relationship.
-
Intimacy and emotional connection, fostering closeness through vulnerability, shared experiences, and intentional bonding.
-
Navigating life transitions such as parenthood, career changes, relocation, or loss, and how these shifts affect relationship dynamics.
-
Healing from past trauma or relationship wounds, including addressing attachment styles, emotional triggers, and patterns that may be impacting current relationships.
Whether you're hoping to reconnect, strengthen your bond, or gain clarity about your relationship’s future, therapy can provide the guidance and tools you need to move forward with confidence and authenticity. Our therapists take an affirming, nonjudgmental approach, recognizing that every relationship is unique and shaped by a variety of personal, cultural, and societal factors. Our work is grounded in culturally responsive, trauma-informed care that acknowledges the impact of power, privilege, and societal pressures on relationships. We strive to create a space where all partners feel seen, heard, and empowered to foster deep, meaningful connections.
Therapy for Polycules & Non-Traditional Structures
Love doesn’t look the same for everyone. At Aguirre Center for Inclusive Psychotherapy, we understand that healthy, fulfilling relationships exist in many forms beyond monogamy. We strive to be sensitive the unique needs and challenges of marginalized communities, such as sexual and gender minorities. We provide affirming support for polyamorous relationships, open relationships, and other nontraditional partnerships.
Common topics we explore in therapy include:
-
Exploring what form of ethical non-monogamy is best suited for partners
-
Negotiating consensual boundaries and agreements
-
Managing struggles with jealousy and emotional regulation
-
Effective communication in multi-partner dynamics
-
Managing external stigma and societal expectations
-
Creating secure attachments in nontraditional relationships
-
Providing support for poly individuals in the "coming out" process
-
Navigating cultural differences and power dynamics within polycules
-
Building coping skills to address challenging relational patterns
Whether you’re new to non-monogamy, exploring ethical non-monogamy for the first time, or have years of experience navigating multi-partner relationships, we provide a supportive and affirming space to help you and your partners strengthen trust, navigate emotions, and cultivate deeper, more meaningful connections. Our goal is to empower you with the tools and insights needed to create fulfilling, balanced relationships that honor everyone's needs and boundaries.
