Couples Therapy
Personalized Care for Couples and Diverse Relationship Systems
The GW Center Clinic provides therapy for couples and diverse relationship systems. Whether you are navigating conflict, feeling disconnected, or looking to strengthen an already healthy relationship, our clinicians work collaboratively with partners to foster greater understanding, improve communication, and support meaningful change. Sessions are typically held once per week, depending on the needs and goals of the relationship.
We welcome partners of all genders and sexual orientations, as well as individuals in consensually non-monogamous and other diverse relationship structures.

- Our Approach
Relationship therapy is tailored to the unique needs, strengths, and goals of each couple or relationship system. Our clinicians work collaboratively with participants to identify patterns of interaction, improve communication, and develop more satisfying ways of connecting.
As a university training clinic, services are provided by advanced doctoral students in clinical psychology under the supervision of licensed psychologists. Treatment is individualized, evidence-informed, and guided by the unique experiences and goals of each relationship.
