Traditional and Non-Traditional Couples and Family Counseling in San Francisco, CA
Helping Traditional and Non-Traditional Couples and Families intervene on problems as they arise in the present so that each member can act with love, respect, and admiration in the future.
Most people who start Couples and Family Counseling feel stuck in a rut, unable to move forward. When a lot is going on in their relationships, many people find it hard to cope. Perhaps you can relate.
Are you in a traditional relationship and struggling? Perhaps you know you’d be happier if you made changes, but it feels safer and more comfortable to stay the same.
Maybe you’re in a Non-traditional relationship, one with multiple partners or one that includes various forms of gender, sexuality, or age disparity. Perhaps you are in a relationship arrangement to be a parent, such as a donor or a co-parenting configuration.
Regardless of the construct, you might find your relationship has become so frustrating that you’re asking, “How did we get here?” and wonder if it’s ever possible to find a way out.
Stuck in negativity and feeling overwhelmed, you may feel like the relationship is too complicated.
