A Fresh Take on Couples Therapy in Houston Texas
Raise your hand if when you see an old couple holding hands and looking SO in love you get the immediate reaction of I want to have that! Doesn’t it sound amazing to feel all the safety, connection, and love that a strong relationship can offer? We believe in those outcomes for any couple we work with, and also get that taking the step into asking for relationship help can be well... tricky. Sometimes one partner wants it and the other is hesitating because things feel a bit complicated. Sometimes it's hard to find a couples therapist that really gets you. And sometimes, we wait until things are "bad enough" to seek support.
Welcome to a judgment-free space with down-to-earth couples therapists who get it, and are ready to meet you exactly where you are. Communication, resolving conflicts, breaking cycles of arguing, and repairing trust are foundations that we can work through together, at the pace and comfort level you're ready for.
The perfect relationship doesn't exist (sorry to burst the bubble), but there's always space to build skills and address underlying blockers to feeling more emotionally connected and fulfilled in your relationship, so let’s do it.

We’re Another Shoulder to Lean On
Even with a normal(ish) upbringing, we can pretty much expect to stumble our 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 we feel hurt.
Couples therapy can support you through a variety of experiences from building healthy habits to support a loving relationship to finding a hand to hold during a painful healing process or affair recovery.
You're here because you're getting curious, and that's all it takes. This is your space to explore all of it with couples counseling. We know your time is precious, and that's why we love matching your pace to make sure you feel good bringing it all to the table and getting the most from the time you carve out for one another.

Healing Relationship Therapy That Actually Works for You
At MT, we LOVE working with relationships whether that's through relationship therapy or exploring your side of the equation through mental health support in individual therapy services. 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 require connection and 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 healthy ways to approach 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.

A Safe Space to Explore Physical Intimacy

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 other trusted referrals in the community.
Couples Counseling Houston: Frequently Asked Questions
-
We’ve seen such a demand for couples support as more partners value the foundations of communication, conflict management, creating shared meaning, and knowing one another on every level as part of a healthy relationship. Some couples may feel like therapy is a better outlet for deeper repair, trust issues, and challenges that extend beyond these foundations. Others may want to focus on these foundational areas, and can work with a relationship coach to get a head start on therapy work or focus more on the future than the past.
Relationship coaching is only available online, offering you more virtual flexibility.
In partnership with our couples therapy team, we created a coaching program that focuses on those key areas of a strong and loving relationship that can benefit anyone who is:
Awaiting couples therapy and wanting to get a head start to work through some initial stressors
Looking for an alternative to couples therapy
Wanting to get even more value from couples therapy with confidence in the basics of connection, goal-setting, and support
