Bring Your Fight to Therapy

Couples Therapy in Philadelphia

Couples therapy can help when you’re stuck in the same fight, feeling distant, or unsure how to repair the hurt that builds over time. At Askin Psychotherapy, we work with couples in Philadelphia and through telehealth to slow things down, understand what’s happening underneath conflict, and help you find your way back to each other. Our offices are located in Mt. Airy (19119), Chestnut Hill (19118), and Center City, with telehealth available across Pennsylvania.

We want you to bring those fights to the therapy room.

We want to understand in real time where you are missing each other and how you can finally hear one another. We want you to be able to talk about what is on your mind with full confidence in the other person’s love and positive intentions.

Disconnection and conflict in relationships

‍ Some couples experience so much hurt over the course of the relationship that it feels nearly impossible to trust one another. Fights can feel endless and exhausting. Couples therapy can be a place where you can bring your fights and get help understanding what is really going on under the surface so that you can hear one another with more patience and compassion.

Big decisions that couples bring to therapy

Couples come because they are stuck with a big decision. Should we have a baby? Should we open our relationship? Therapy can help you to hear each other and make decisions that that reflect your shared values, goals and desires.

Building better communication in therapy

Over time, couples can start talking to each other in ways that feel sharper, colder, or more guarded than they used to. Couples therapy helps you notice those patterns in real time, understand what they’re protecting, and rebuild warmth, softness, and trust.
