Are You Feeling Disconnected from Your Partner?
It can be exhausting and lonely to feel disconnected from your partner. Maybe you are stuck in the same arguments, tired of feeling misunderstood, or living more like roommates than a couple. Our couples therapy in St. Louis is designed to help you break free from these painful patterns. Our therapists use compassionate, evidence-based approaches to help you rebuild the deep emotional bond and safety you’ve been missing. We also offer virtual marriage counseling to couples throughout Missouri.
Couples often find themselves having the same fight over and over. They struggle to get out of the cycle and feel unseen by each other. In couples therapy we will:
- Uncover the deeper meaning of these cycles.
- Notice and name when the cycle is happening.
- Learn how to get out of the cycle.
- Gain skills to make amends that will fostering a deeper connection.
What to Expect from Couples Therapy
Our session structure begins with a joint session gathering background information as a couple and coming up with goals. We then follow up with an individual session for each partner were we discuss personal history. This allows us to get a glimpse of how your story is impacting your relationship. Finally, we come back together and dive deep into understanding one another and creating alignment with one another.
If a partner sees an individual therapist, we request a signed Release of Information (ROI) for collaboration. At Lotus Rising we believes in collaborative treatment so that you are getting the best care possible.
Approach to Healing Relationships
Our 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.

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.
