Parenting is one of the most meaningful and demanding roles you’ll ever take on. It stretches your heart and your capacity. It asks you to give, grow, adapt, and often put others first. And while parenting can bring immense joy, it can also surface deep stress, emotional exhaustion, and moments of disconnection from yourself, your partner, or the kind of parent you want to be.

At Integrative Couples Therapy, we work with parents every day who are navigating the layered reality of raising children while also trying to maintain a healthy, connected relationship. For many, parenting brings to light differences in styles, unmet emotional needs, and the mental and emotional load that often falls unequally. For others, the transition into parenthood feels overwhelming, and the identity shifts are hard to name and even harder to share. Sometimes it’s a child’s emotional or behavioral challenges that become the center of stress. Other times it’s burnout, resentment, or simply the feeling of being stuck in survival mode.

We are here to help you name what is happening beneath the surface and work through it with care. Our therapists create a warm and compassionate space where you can pause, reflect, and begin to feel supported again. We help couples adjust to the shifts that come with new parenthood, and reconnect when they feel like they’re drifting apart. We guide parents who are feeling exhausted, anxious, or uncertain. We support families navigating the emotional intensity of raising children with big feelings or complex needs. We work with co-parents who are parenting during or after a separation, and couples learning to navigate the dynamics of blended families.

Sometimes the work is about communication—learning to really hear and be heard by your partner. Other times it’s about reconnecting with your own values and voice. And often, it’s about understanding the emotional patterns you’re both caught in, and shifting them so you can show up for each other—and your children—with more clarity, intention, and care.

Whether you’re in couples therapy already, or just starting to explore getting support, we welcome you. We use an Emotionally Focused Therapy approach that helps strengthen the emotional bond between partners and supports individuals in making sense of their inner world. It’s not about fixing you. It’s about helping you feel more resourced, more connected, and more aligned with the parent and partner you want to be.

You’re already carrying so much. You don’t have to do it alone. Reach out to us today, and we’ll help match you with a therapist who understands parenting, relationships, and the complexity of holding both at once. You deserve to feel supported—not just as a parent, but as a person, too.
