Have you ever felt so exhausted by constant conflict that you find yourself angrier or even sadder than usual with your partner? Perhaps it feels monotonous, and you’re not sure how to move forward. So you often wonder: how on earth did we get to this point? Well, our relationship therapists in Orange County can help!

Maybe you believe there’s still more to do, or you might feel trapped between staying in an unhappy relationship or walking away. Whatever the case, our team of relationship therapists at the OC Relationship Center is here to restore hope and help you see that things can—and will—get better.

What Our Relationship Therapists Can Help You With

Many couples come to us feeling stuck, uncertain, or disconnected. However, relationship counseling can help you rediscover connection and begin to work toward a stronger future together.

Our relationship therapists in Orange County can help you:

  • Talk through your anger, frustration, lack of trust, and other painful relationship issues in a neutral, judgment-free space.
  • Identify hidden resentments that might be clouding your daily interactions.
  • Learn and practice new communication and conflict-resolution skills.

Discuss any problems (e.g., anxiety, substance abuse, or depression) that one partner may need to address through individual counseling.

Our relationship therapists combine evidence-based approaches with a compassionate, real-world touch to support your journey.

What to Look For in a Relationship Therapist

We know that taking the first step toward relationship therapy can feel uncertain—like walking into the unknown. On top of that, you may not know how to find the right relationship therapist for you.

Here are a few tips to help guide your search:

  • Make sure the therapist is licensed in your state and has specific training and supervision in relationship counseling approaches.
  • Prioritize fit over convenience or cost: the most important thing is that the therapist feels right for you and your relationship.
  • Remember, relationship therapists are not supposed to take sides. You should never leave sessions feeling unheard, dismissed, or like your partner’s perspective is valued more than yours.
  • Ensure they respect your boundaries. For example, not pressuring you to discuss a topic before you’re ready.
  • If you have (or suspect you may have) a specific issue, such as substance use, seek a therapist with experience in that area.
  • Discuss your preferences and goals with your partner. You may, for instance, want to see a therapist who shares your religious background or values.

All in all, your therapist needs to be the right fit for you—aligning with your values, communication style, expectations, and goals, while also respecting your feelings. A good professional will foster a safe, supportive environment where both of you feel heard and respected.

Questions to Ask Your Relationship Therapist

To ensure your relationship therapist is the right fit for you, it can be helpful to ask them some key questions.

Some examples include:

  • Do you mainly work with couples?
  • How do you track improvements in couples’ relationships?
  • What are your thoughts on divorce?
  • What can we expect from therapy with you?
  • In your opinion, what makes a relationship successful?
  • What type of approaches do you use most often?

You should also bring up any specific concerns or unique issues you want to explore, and get a sense of their perspective and experience. For example, this might include grief, trauma, gender identity, nonmonogamy, sexual expression, BDSM, or other important topics in your life and relationship.
