Repairing the conversation after conflict
The period after an argument can be as difficult as the argument itself. One person may want immediate reassurance while the other needs distance. Couples therapy offers time to understand how these reactions affect each partner. You can explore what makes reconnection difficult and how old hurts enter present-day conversations.
Individual therapy when relationship stress follows you
Relationship concerns can take up emotional space even when the other person is not in the room. Individual therapy allows you to explore your own responses, needs, and decisions. Dr. Regier also offers depth therapy for people seeking a broader understanding of their personal patterns and direction in life.
Explore the therapy options
- Couples therapy — reflect on your part in relationship patterns and practice more open communication.
- Individual therapy — understand your feelings, clarify your needs, and work on the changes you want to make.
- Relationship counseling — learn about attachment and the foundations of connection.
- Depth therapy — explore identity, inner experience, and meaning.
