Marriage Counseling in Seattle: Reconnect, Grow & Strengthen Your Bond

Marriage is a commitment, a journey, and hey let’s be honest...sometimes a challenge. Even strong marriages with two people who should absolutely be together can still be rough. You may find yourselves disconnected, stuck in negative patterns, or simply missing the closeness you once had. That doesn’t mean your marriage is broken...it means you’re ready for change.

Marriage counseling gives you a chance to step out of the daily grind and into a space of reflection, repair, and reconnection. Whether you’re dealing with frequent arguments, a lack of intimacy, or just growing apart, therapy helps you strengthen your foundation and create a marriage that truly works for both of you.

What marriage counseling can help with

We work with married couples who want to:

  • Feel emotionally and physically close again
  • Break out of communication cycles that go nowhere
  • Rebuild trust and navigate hurts or betrayals
  • Handle parenting, in-laws, finances, and major transitions as a team
  • Deepen their connection and create a shared vision for the future

Sex and intimacy therapy is also available if desire, disconnection, or erotic avoidance are part of what you're facing.

Curious how the little things build up in marriage? Our founder, Justin Pere, was recently quoted in The New York Times discussing the importance of addressing the quiet, often invisible emotional labor that can erode connection in a marriage. Read more on our blog about how these subtle dynamics show up in long-term relationships and how therapy can help address them before resentment builds.

Therapy that’s real, respectful, and practical

  • Understand each other's needs without defensiveness
  • Repair from past arguments or emotional injuries
  • Parent together with intention and empathy
  • Rediscover what brings you joy as a couple
  • Find clarity on how to move forward together

You don’t have to wait until things get tougher

Many couples wait years before seeking help. But therapy is most effective when it’s proactive, not just a last resort. We’re here to support your relationship, not to judge it. We know marriage takes work. With the right support, it can also bring healing, laughter, and deep connection.
