Couples Counseling
At Elra, we work with couples at all stages: dating, engaged, married. Clinicians at Elra use evidenced-based interventions to help partners move from bland to bliss, beyond conflict management into intimacy, and growth, elevating their relationships to new height. We use also attachment-informed, emotionally focused therapy (EFT), and Gottman Institute frameworks to address disconnection, resentment, communication breakdowns, and the unspoken fears that drive relational tension.
Our work helps couples identify and heal patterns of disconnection, address underlying fears and vulnerabilities, and develop healthier ways of relating. We focus on transforming cycles of blame and defensiveness into shared understanding and renewed partnership.

Flagship Couples Programs
Anchored Together

Marriage preparation often stops at the wedding day. Foundation & Flourish bridges that gap, offering a seamless transition from pre-marital work into post-marital counseling so couples keep building the skills and intimacy they started with.
FAQ
Do I need to pick a specific program, or can we just start with general couples counseling?
You can start with general couples counseling. If a specialized program fits better once we talk, we'll point you there.
Is couples counseling covered by insurance?
No. All couples and marriage counseling, including our specialized programs, is private-pay. Insurance requires a diagnosis tied to one individual, which doesn't fit the goals of relationship work.
