Marriage Philosophy
Marriages aren’t 50-50, only divorces are. In a healthy and satisfying Marriage, you and your partner EACH needs to give the Marriage 100% effort, desire, love, motivation, compassion, and empathy. Common misperceptions of successful Marriages are reflected in the phrases: “2-halves becoming 1” and “Happy Wife – Happy Life.” Rather, we view Marriages as 2 individuals joining together to form a successful and powerful “Marriage.” Mathematically, think of it not as “1+ 1 = 2” but as “1 + 1 = 3.
Why We Choose Private Pay
Our private-pay model allows couples to work with two licensed therapists in the same session without the limitations, diagnoses, or reporting requirements often associated with insurance.
Access to Two Therapists
Work with both Eric and Erica together in the same session, benefiting from two perspectives, two therapists, and one collaborative approach.
Focus on the Relationship
Couples therapy should focus on the relationship itself, not on determining which partner receives a mental health diagnosis for insurance purposes.
Greater Privacy and Flexibility
Your therapy remains between you and your therapists, without the need to submit diagnoses, or session details to an insurance company.
