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.

Love Re-Paired
Affair Recovery Counseling
This isn’t where either of you imagined you’d end up, but here you are. Maybe you’re the one who discovered the affair and now trying to make sense of the betrayal, the heartbreak, and the loss of safety. Or maybe you’re the one who had the affair and carrying the weight of guilt, shame, and a desperate desire to repair what’s been broken.
At Elra Wellness Group, we understand that both partners are in pain, and that true healing only happens when both are supported. Our Love Re-Paired program helps couples rebuild emotional safety, work through the trauma of infidelity, and create a relationship rooted not in the past, but in what’s possible moving forward. This journey won’t be easy but it can be transformative. With guidance grounded in trauma-informed care, we walk with you through every step of recovery. You’re not just repairing love. You’re re-pairing your lives, together.
What Makes Love Re-Paired Unique?
At the moment of affair discovery, both partners endure profound trauma that’s too often overlooked. The betrayed partner experiences shock, grief, and a shattering of core trust, while the involved partner navigates intense shame, guilt, and a fractured sense of self. Love Re-Paired uniquely recognizes and addresses this dual trauma and we begin by stabilizing each partner’s emotional safety, then guide both through tailored, trauma-informed interventions so that healing happens side by side rather than in isolation.
Treatment is not one-size-fits all so our trauma-informed approach integrates different interventions to bring you healing.
If you a couple experiencing infidelity and are ready to move beyond the pain of the betrayal and rebuild your relationship on a foundation of trust, compassion, and mutual growth then, this program is for you. Click below to book a free consultation.
Anchored Together
Counseling for Couples Raising Children with Special Needs
You’re parents navigating the extraordinary responsibility of raising a child with autism spectrum disorder or another developmental difference. Alongside the joy and love, you may feel the weight of stress, grief, or isolation; and perhaps the strain it places on your marriage. Anchored Together was created specifically for couples like you.
As the exclusive provider, Dr. Linda Iyebote brings over 13 years of clinical experience and has published work on the lived experiences of parents raising children with ASD, giving her both professional and research-based insight into the unique challenges couples face. Dr Iyebote holds a Ph.D. in International Psychology. She is also a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Board-Certified Social Work Supervisor. She combines this expertise with heart-centered and culturally sensitive care to support couples carrying extraordinary responsibilities.
What Makes Anchored Together Unique?
Unlike general parenting advice or surface-level workshops, Anchored Together is rooted in trauma-informed, relational psychotherapy. We go beyond symptom management to support grief, intimacy, stress, and long-term planning at a deep level.
The Anchored Together Framework
For couples who want more than short-term coping; they want resilience, intimacy, and hope for the future. Anchored Together is designed for parents navigating the psychological, emotional, and relational cost of caregiving. Using evidence-based methods like the Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), CBT, Imago, and Narrative Therapy, this program helps couples:
-
Process grief and loss of “hoped-for” dreams.
-
Build rituals of connection that sustain love and partnership.
-
Strengthen advocacy and teamwork for their child’s care.
-
Prepare for transitions and long-term planning (trusts, guardianship, estate planning).
-
Renew intimacy and find joy again in their marriage.
Rooted in disability-informed and compassionate care
Anchored Together recognizes the unique demands of raising a child with special needs while nurturing a strong, connected partnership. The program provides couples with a compassionate space to navigate caregiving stress, shifting roles, emotional exhaustion, communication challenges, and the impact of disability on their relationship, together.
This is relational realignment for couples ready to anchor their relationship while raising a child with unique needs. It’s the clarity, resilience, and hope they’ve been missing. Book a free consultation
Foundation & Flourish
Pre-Marital & Post-Marital Counseling
What Makes Our Pre & Post-Marital Program Unique?
Marriage preparation often stops at the wedding day, leaving couples without support during the first years of marriage, the very time when many relationships face their greatest tests. Our program bridges this gap by offering a seamless transition from pre-marital work into post-marital counseling, ensuring couples continue developing the skills, intimacy, and resilience they began building before marriage.
In the pre-marital phase, couples clarify expectations, strengthen communication, and identify potential areas of conflict before they arise. In the post-marital phase, they learn to navigate real-life challenges together, maintain emotional closeness, and build a marriage culture aligned with their shared vision.
Who This Program is For
This program is ideal for engaged couples, newlyweds, or remarried partners who want to:

-
Receive ongoing guidance and support during the early months of marriage
