Couples & Relationship Support

Reignite Connection. Deepen Intimacy. Heal & Grow Together.

At the Center for Relationship & Intimacy Well-Being (CRIWB), we believe relationships are at the heart of our well-being. Whether in a long-term partnership, newly together, navigating a transition, or facing challenges, we offer compassionate, holistic, and integrative support to help you and your partner reconnect, heal, and thrive.

What is Couples & Relationship Support?

Relationships are the heartbeat of our lives—where we love, grow, and sometimes struggle. They are complex and ever-evolving. They hold our deepest joys and, at times, our most profound challenges.

Couples therapy and relationship support are intentional spaces where partners can explore their connection, address struggles, and create new patterns for love, trust, and intimacy. Our approach supports all relationship structures, including monogamous, non-monogamous, LGBTQIA+, and polyamorous partnerships.

Relationship support at CRIWB is not just about resolving conflicts—it’s about strengthening the foundation of your partnership, enhancing communication, and fostering deeper emotional and physical intimacy.

At the Center for Relationship & Intimacy Well-Being (CRIWB), we offer holistic, integrative, and evidence-based support for couples and individuals seeking deeper connection, more fulfilling intimacy, and a greater understanding of themselves and their partners. Our work is not about “fixing” relationships but creating space for healing, communication, and growth—whether that means strengthening your partnership, navigating transitions, or making intentional decisions about your future.

Relationships don’t have to feel exhausting or disconnected. With the proper guidance and tools, they can be fulfilling, passionate, and life-giving.

Common Relationship & Intimacy Challenges We Address

Relationships evolve, and challenges are a natural part of that growth. Whether you’re facing one or many of these concerns, you’re not alone:

Communication Breakdowns

Feeling unheard, misunderstood, or stuck in repeating arguments? We help couples develop clear, compassionate, and emotionally safe communication styles to break unhealthy cycles.

Desire Discrepancies & Sexual Disconnect

Mismatched libidos, changes in sexual desire, or feeling like intimacy has faded? We explore desire dynamics, pleasure, and erotic reconnection in a way that feels safe, nonjudgmental, and empowering.

Healing from Betrayal & Infidelity

Whether rebuilding trust after infidelity or healing from past wounds, we guide couples through repair, understanding, and conscious choices for moving forward.

Navigating Life Transitions

From marriage and parenthood to menopause, aging, or relationship shifts, we provide holistic support for adapting to changes together.

Non-Monogamy & Relationship Agreements

Whether you’re curious about ethical non-monogamy (ENM), polyamory, or open relationships, we offer support in navigating agreements, boundaries, and emotional dynamics.

Unresolved Trauma & Its Impact on Relationships

Past experiences can shape how we love, trust, and connect. We offer trauma-informed relationship therapy that considers personal history, attachment wounds, and nervous system healing.

What Makes CRIWB Different?

Many therapy approaches focus only on communication techniques or behavioral strategies, but we know relationships are more than just words—they are lived, felt, and embodied experiences. That’s why our approach goes deeper:

The 4-Dimensional Approach

Honoring the connection between body, heart, mind, and spirit in relationships.

Somatic & Embodied Healing

Recognizing that intimacy and connection are felt in the body, not just understood cognitively.

Sex-Positive & Shame-Free Space

Creating a supportive environment where all aspects of intimacy and sexuality can be explored with openness and respect.

Science & Research-Based Methods

Incorporating evidence-based approaches alongside holistic healing modalities to address relational dynamics and sexual concerns.

Collaborative & Inclusive Care

Working with medical professionals, OB/GYNs, pelvic floor specialists, hormone experts, and other clinicians to ensure comprehensive, integrative care.

Holistic & Integrative

We address relationships on multiple levels—mind, body, heart, and spirit—helping you and your partner(s) explore emotional patterns, nervous system responses, attachment wounds, sexual well-being, and the deeper forces shaping your connection.

Somatic & Pleasure-Centered

We don’t just talk about relationships; we help you feel into them. We help couples reconnect with their bodies and each other by using body-based practices, mindfulness, and pleasure-focused techniques.

Culturally Attuned & Inclusive

We honor the complexities of identity, culture, upbringing, and personal history, creating a sex-positive space that is LGBTQIA+ affirming and welcoming to diverse relational structures, including CNM/ENM partnerships.

Collaborative & Research-Informed

We combine expertise in sex therapy, trauma healing, attachment science, and neurobiology, integrating the latest research with time-honored wisdom to support each unique relationship.
