People in any type of relationship can experience the frustration of having unmet needs. This might include spiritual, sexual, and financial needs. Partners can experience these conflicts in many types of living arrangements, and this includes traditional marriage. However, same-sex couples, domestic partners, and live-in couples are also confronted with the same relationship challenges.
Many people associate codependency with lonely housewives who are unable to make basic decisions based on low self-esteem and lack of relationship skills. Associated issues often include a lack of healthy boundaries and enmeshment. However, these signs of codependency can be present in many non-conventional relationships. Many people bring unhealed traumas into their current relationship, and it affects the way people interact with partners, children, extended relatives, and coworkers.
Marriage Therapists
We work with two types of couples: those whose marriages are in a state of crisis, barely hanging on by the thinnest of threads, usually due to infidelity. And we also work with couples who are not in crisis, but where both spouses recognize a need to cultivate a stronger connection in their Bedrooms and their Living Rooms.
Couple's Therapy
People in any type of relationship can experience the frustration of having unmet emotional, sexual, spiritual and financial wants and needs. Same-sex couples, domestic partners, and live-in couples are also confronted with the same relationship challenges as are partners in traditional marriages and Drs. Bercaw are here to help.
Individual Therapy
And of course, we work with individuals also: individuals who are seeking sex addiction treatment, spouses and partners of sex and love addicts, and individuals who are simply seeking to better their own lives, typically by seeking to change long-standing areas of difficulty in their lives (whether these challenges are related to their relationship or not). Many people bring unhealed traumas into their current relationship, and it affects the way people interact with partners, children, extended relatives, and coworkers. Associated issues often include a lack of healthy boundaries, emotional dysregulation, self-esteem obstacles, explosive anger, codependence and enmeshment.
We offer the following service to assist clients who are actively seeking to improve their relationships:
Partners and Spouses of Sex Addicts
Many people will begin a relationship with another person without thinking that sexual addiction could become a problem. Discovery can be confusing, and many partners and spouses tend to engage in self-blame. However, sexual addiction has deep roots in underlying trauma, and it can be helpful to learn more about your partner’s history even as you experience intense feelings of betrayal and confusion.
Sexual Dysfunction or Dissatisfaction
Our clients receive compassionate therapeutic services when dealing with difficulties with sexual desire, arousal, orgasm, painful intercourse, erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, and intimacy problems. Many clients are relieved to find that these issues are not uncommon, so simply seeking help is often a beneficial experience.
Sexual Addiction
Some people experience unhealthy sexual addictions, and this is often connected to an unresolved sexual trauma that happened early in life. There are many ways sexual addiction can manifest, and this includes things like online porn, affairs, prostitution, phone sex, strip clubs, cybersex, and more. If the behavior is having a harmful effect in your life, help is available.
We help couples to find the missing pieces that enable you to use the tools of healthy communication within your existing relationships. Our treatment plans include constructing a personal program to deal with deep-rooted, underlying issues.
It is a process that can have a profound effect on how you think, feel and interact with others, so contact us today to get started on your healing journey.
