Relationship Therapy in Houston and Beyond

Care For Your Relationship With Couples Counseling in Houston Texas

We’re Another Shoulder to Lean On 

A therapist friend shared this fabulous lens on when you should come to couples therapy: "At the latest, you want to come in when things are at a simmer. You don't want to wait until they're at a boil." TRUE STORY. 

Couples therapy can feel intimidating, and you might wait for the "we’ve had this same fight ten times now and nothing is changing" point to hit before you make moves. Starting early means that when things get tough (because they do), you’ll  already have a trusted person on our side who knows you well and is ready to help you stick back together. 

Even with a normal(ish) upbringing, it’s expected that you will stumble your way through the many complexities of intimacy. There are SO MANY relational habits we’ve grown into and a lifetime of relational histories that have influenced how we connect, seek closeness, and protect ourselves when feeling injured. This is your space to explore all of it, and our therapists love matching your comfort level to make sure you feel good bringing it all to the table.

Big news! Modern Therapy is now a Twogether in Texas Healthy Marriage Provider.

A Safe Space to Explore Intimacy

When it comes to intimacy, we completely understand that letting a stranger in can sound intimidating and strange. We’re here to offer sex therapy that builds the safety you need to feel heard and understood as you create a sex life that feels fulfilling to your unique partnership

Your therapist helps you create a space to talk through sex discrepancies, changes in function, routine sex, and changes that come with life transitions. We balance education to help you feel empowered and curiosity that keeps our work fun. To make sure your bases are always covered, we’re also ready to connect you to trusted and reputable specialists like pelvic floor therapists, physicians, and others in the community.

It’s Relationship Therapy Work That Works Around You

At MT, we LOVE working with relationships whether that's through relationship therapy or exploring your side of the equation through individual therapy. It might very well be our favorite thing actually. The way we show up in our relationships (who we're attracted to, how we relate, how we get our needs met, how we don't, how we bottle things up, how we push people away) has everything to do with our story. 

Your therapist shows up in a very unique way to help you gain insight into your relational style and deepen the way you connect. As social animals that rely on working within systems, it's to our greatest advantage that we understand how we relate to ourselves and others as we move through work, friendships, family, and romantic love. In addition to psychological insight rooted in the latest couple's research, we use the therapeutic relationship to help our clients better understand how they navigate vulnerability and their feelings in session as they use their relationship with their therapist as a wealth of information and exploration.
