Sun City Marriage Counseling
Every marriage has highs and lows. It will take commitment and lots of work in order to keep the relationship thriving and blissful for both partners. Although arguments are normal for every couple, differences that seem hard to resolve can be helped with Sun City marriage counseling sessions.
We can provide you with effective tools and knowledge on how to deal with your own negative traits and other external factors (e.g., in-laws, friends, working hours/job responsibilities) that strain your relationship. From building a strong foundation for marriage to resolving conflicts and mending your relationship, trust our counselors to give helpful advice.
We use the Gottman Method of marriage therapy, which focuses on the emotions the couple brings into a session, on dysfunctional negative interaction patterns, and on replacing them in order to make conflict discussions more functional and constructive. This marriage therapy also addresses things like trauma and empowers couples to turn toward one another during their hardest moments. With married couples that are grappling with things like infidelity, the Gottman method utilizes an approach to atone, attune and attach the couple again should both partners be willing to work through things.
Your marriage may not be saved after a single session. However, with consistent meetings and your full participation, we can help you rekindle the spark and find the reason to keep fighting for the happiness you felt at the beginning of your relationship.

Building a Foundation for Success
Premarital Counseling
The thought of saying “I do” can be so exciting that it may blur out the things that come after the blissful honeymoon period. However, every person’s responsibility is to ensure that the foundation for their marriage is built with trust, understanding, openness, and love.
Included in the topics that should be covered in the premarital counseling are:
- Financial management
- Family planning
- Parenting styles
- Communication methods
- Conflict resolution strategies
- Decision-making styles
- Career choices or direction
- Sex and intimacy
- Division of labor
- Families and friends
- Beliefs and values
- Health and habits
By laying down your expectations and wants in the relationship and learning how to ask the same from your partner, you can create a realistic vision of how your marriage will work. Premarital counseling will also allow you to create preventive plans for future marital stress.
Support for Struggling Relationships
Individual Counseling for Couples
Couples counseling can be helpful for every romantic couple, married or not. No matter at what stage you are in the relationship, you may discover issues that lead to heated arguments, emotional pain, and growing distance between you and your partner. Without effective communication and the willingness to understand and compromise for each other, these issues can only make your relationship cold and done for.
More importantly, we will help you create a plan on how to improve your understanding and become a better partner for your spouse. Because often, while you may know what is going wrong in your marriage, it can be hard to distinguish the right solution to the problem. An objective third party can be helpful in offering advice that considers each partner’s needs.
Included in the issues that couples counseling can address are the following:
- Effects of mental health problems of one partner
- Effects of substance abuse
- Lack of communication
- Spending habits
- Anger management
- Occurrence of an affair
- Children are the only reason the couple stays together
- Lack of intimacy
- Infertility
Reconnecting & Rebuilding
Divorce Counseling
Conflicts are a normal part of every relationship. However, if separation is already part of the solutions you’re considering, divorce counseling can offer help in order to either salvage the relationship or at least give you and your partner an amicable break.
If, however, the relationship is really at its end, divorce counseling can help you deal with the divorce process, which tends to be emotionally and mentally challenging. Our counselors will also be your support once the divorce process is done, guiding you on how to adjust to a new life without your former spouse.
With our Sun City marriage counseling experts, you can better decide on things relevant in contemplating, filing, or moving on from a divorce. We can even help you make smart decisions when it comes to child support, custody, and alimony, among many other things.
