Repair or enhance your relationship
One of the biggest challenges we face in life is choosing our partners and creating/maintaining a healthy relationship. Divorce rates at 50 percent speak to how great a challenge this can be. New scientific studies are useful in helping us to understand the key ingredients of a good relationship.
As a result of this new scientific knowledge, our psychologists at Dr. Eliana Cohen Psychology Professional Corp are able to teach our clients a set of skills that can dramatically improve the stability and happiness of their relationship.
Do not hesitate to ask for help as soon as you recognize a problem. Research shows that on average couples wait six years from the first signs of problems before they seek help. That being said, improved outcomes are found when couples ask for help sooner rather than later.
Couples Therapy focuses on a variety of areas:
