Couples Therapy

Love is a constant process of tuning in, connecting, missing and misreading cues, disconnecting, repairing, and finding deeper connection. It is a dance of meeting and parting and finding each other again. Minute to minute and day to day.

- Dr. Sue Johnson

The Approach

At Lotus Rising LLC, we specialize in Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples. Our session structure begins with a joint session, followed by individual sessions for each partner, and then we go back together as a couple. During these initial sessions, the therapist builds an understanding of the problem and histories of the relationship and the individuals. From there, we slow things down and build trust and communication skills.

If a partner sees an individual therapist, we request a signed Release of Information (ROI) for collaboration. Salina believes in collaborative treatment so that you are getting the best care possible.


The Goal

My goal is to build trust and understanding within your relationship. We believe in addressing conflicts directly, rather than avoiding them, and teach healthy ways to repair and strengthen your bond. We explore attachment styles and internal narratives to understand each partner's perspective and identify recurring cycles in your relationship dynamics. The ultimate goal is not to get you back to how things used to be but to put you in a better place than ever before.


Benefits of Couples Therapy

Participating in couples therapy provides a valuable chance for both personal development and the strengthening of the relationship. It is an opportunity to work together as a team, enhance communication skills, and ultimately create a more joyful and fulfilling life as a couple.
