Understand one another. Change painful patterns. Build a deeper connection. Do you find yourselves having the same argument again and again? Perhaps one of you pursues connection while the other withdraws. Or you both want closeness, but your attempts to communicate leave you feeling misunderstood, frustrated, or alone. There is hope. As a Christian pastoral counselor, I help couples understand what is happening beneath these struggles and practice healthier ways of relating. My primary approach combines temperament therapy through the Arno Profile System (APS) with attachment-focused counseling using How We Love (HWL). Together, these approaches help us explore both your individual needs and the relationship patterns that keep you feeling disconnected. Understanding Your Temperament Each person brings different strengths, needs, and expectations into a relationship. The APS temperament assessment helps us explore your needs in three areas: inclusion, control, and affection—how you relate socially, approach decisions and responsibilities, and give and receive closeness. Understanding these differences can help you take fewer things personally, communicate your needs more clearly, and respond to one another with greater consideration. We also explore ways to meet your needs that support both personal growth and a healthy relationship. Understanding How You Love Our early relationships help shape what we expect from others and how we respond when we feel hurt, afraid, or disconnected. Ways of protecting ourselves that developed earlier in life can later make intimacy difficult. How We Love helps us identify these learned patterns, called love styles, and understand how they interact in your relationship. Together, we’ll explore your core pattern: the recurring cycle in which one person’s reaction triggers the other’s, leaving both feeling stuck. The goal is to help each of you recognize your own responses, take responsibility for your behavior, and develop a more secure way of connecting. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db9f72e56fe4a4cca50aab5/1576554694867-DQYPDTKFBFPPHHZPU9ZB/Couples+Assessment.jpg Couples Counseling - What to Expect We’ll begin by discussing your relationship, the concerns that brought you to counseling, and what you hope will change. The APS assessment and exploration of your HWL love styles will help guide our work together. During counseling, you’ll have opportunities to: Recognize the cycle beneath recurring arguments. Understand the feelings, fears, and needs behind your reactions. Express hurt and ask for what you need more directly. Listen with curiosity, empathy, and understanding. Practice giving and receiving comfort through the HWL Comfort Circle. Develop healthy boundaries and take responsibility for your choices. Repair after conflict and build trust through consistent action. Sessions include guided conversations, practical exercises, and opportunities to practice between appointments. The pace and length of counseling depend on your needs and circumstances. Throughout our work, we’ll draw on Christian principles of humility, truth, compassion, and personal responsibility. Understanding your story can help explain your reactions; growth involves learning to respond in ways that honor God and care for one another. https://www.sparrowchristiancounseling.com/fees-payment daily 0.75 2025-08-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db9f72e56fe4a4cca50aab5/1576555190779-49ZA9I0Q7YMI9XV01626/Fees-payment.jpg Fees & Payment https://www.sparrowchristiancounseling.com/cancellation-policy daily 0.75 2024-01-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5db9f72e56fe4a4cca50aab5/1576555216604-ZK8LNGT65RW2R36IQT38/Scheduling.jpg Cancellation Policy You will be charged a fee if you cancel or reschedule an appointment with 48 hours or less notice.
