Couples Therapy

Our Key Goals:

• Breaking Free from Negative Patterns 
• Enhancing Communication Skills 
• Deepening Intimate Connection 

We are committed to helping you and your partner build a stronger, more connected relationship. By understanding and addressing the dynamics causing conflict, improving communication skills, and deepening your intimate connection, you can create a more fulfilling and lasting partnership. Let us guide you on this journey towards a healthier, happier relationship.

Many conflicts in relationships stem from recurring patterns that both partners may not fully understand. These patterns often originate from attachment styles developed early in life, influencing how we connect and respond to our partners. Using an attachment lens, we help couples recognize these patterns, understand their origins, and how they impact relationship dynamics. By identifying the underlying needs and fears driving these behaviors, couples can begin to see each other with greater empathy and compassion.

EFCT is a well-researched, effective approach to couple therapy that focuses on identifying and transforming negative interaction patterns. We aid clients in understanding and expressing underlying emotions and attachment needs to strengthen emotional bonds. This therapeutic process works to foster connection, trust, and security in relationships and create secure, lasting connection.

We utilize additional evidence-based treatment in couples counseling, as seen fit by your particular needs, including Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, and Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP). These help deepen emotional experiences and facilitate deeper relational bonds.

Fees will be processed the morning of all sessions. Fee structure is outlined below:

• Couples Therapy initial session: $165 / 75 minute session
• Couples ongoing session: $145 / 50 minute session

Purpose Counseling does not submit to insurance, however, we do provide a superbill for clients to send to their insurance provider independently. Many insurance companies provide out of network mental health benefits, so we advise contacting your provider to determine reimbursement.

Purpose Counseling offers both in-person and telehealth appointments dependent upon client needs. In-person appointments are held at 10551 Barkley Street in Overland Park, KS.

A 24-hour notice is required to cancel or reschedule appointments without charge.
