At The Alamo, we help couples slow down and reconnect.

Couples therapy is about exploring what is happening beneath the surface: What is spoken, what is unspoken, and how has the relationship has changed over time?

Are you stuck in communication patterns that only deepen the conflict?

Has silence started to feel easier than speaking up?

Do you both wonder how you drifted so far from where you began?

Relationships change as life unfolds. What once felt effortless can become tangled in misunderstanding and distance.  Our couples therapy in Highland Park supports partners in improving communication, repairing trust, and understanding the deeper emotional worlds that influence the relationship.

Let's Talk

How We Approach Couples Therapy

At The Alamo, we bring a depth-oriented, relational psychoanalytic lens to couples counseling. Our work focuses on understanding the meaning behind behavior and patterns: how your individual histories, attachment styles, and communication habits influence your relationship.

We help couples move from reactivity to reflection, from blame to curiosity, and from frustration to genuine understanding. In therapy, we’ll slow things down so you can hear and be heard.

We integrate a blend of evidence-based and depth-oriented approaches:

  • Helps partners identify and express core emotions, creating emotional safety and closeness.

  • Builds trust and security; supports partners in feeling seen and valued by one another.

  • Explores how early life and family experiences influence present-day relationship dynamics.

  • Offers structured communication tools to reduce criticism, defensiveness, withdrawal, and builds positive interactions.

  • Supports couples adjusting to parenthood and rediscovering connection after the arrival of a child.

We help you fight better, listen longer, and rediscover the parts of your relationship that that need care.
