Are you and your partner facing challenges in your relationship that seem insurmountable? Are you looking for a safe and supportive space to work through these issues and strengthen your connection?

At Colorado Counseling Center, we are here to help you navigate the complexities of your relationship with understanding, empathy, and expertise.

Our Commitment to You

We are dedicated to providing inclusive, affirming, and effective couples counseling services tailored to the unique needs of LGBTQ+ couples. We understand that relationships can be beautifully complex, and it’s our mission to support you in creating a stronger and more fulfilling partnership.

Our Therapeutic Approach

We believe that every couple is unique, and there is no one-size-fits-all solution to relationship issues. Our experienced therapists take a personalized approach to understand your specific challenges, strengths, and goals.

Emotionally Focused Therapy for LGBTQ+ Couples

All of our therapists are trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) — an approach built on attachment needs that are universal, whatever a couple’s identity or history looks like.

EFT doesn’t assume a template for what a relationship should be, which matters for LGBTQ+ couples navigating dynamics a heteronormative model was never built to address — chosen family, differing levels of being out, minority stress carried into the relationship, or simply not having many models for what a healthy version of your specific relationship looks like. EFT works with the bond you actually have, not one you’re expected to fit.

As with any couple, EFT isn’t a set of tools for managing conflict better in the moment — though as the underlying bond becomes more secure, conflict naturally does get less frequent and less intense. The real goal is helping you and your partner recognize what you’re each reaching for underneath the conflict, and learn to respond there instead of just at the surface.

Frequently Asked Questions About LGBTQ+ Couples Counseling

Whether you’re a gay couple, a lesbian couple, or navigating a mixed-orientation relationship, LGBTQ+ couples counseling addresses the same core relationship patterns as traditional couples therapy and marriage counseling, but our counselors are also trained in the specific contexts LGBTQ+ couples may navigate — societal pressures, coming out experiences, and identity-related concerns.

LGBTQ+ couples counseling can help strengthen your relationship in numerous ways:

  • Building the emotional safety to reach each other during conflict
  • Building deeper emotional connections and trust
  • Addressing intimacy concerns
  • Working through identity-related challenges
  • Managing external pressures and discrimination
  • Navigating family dynamics and acceptance
  • Building resilience as a couple

Our primary approach is Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), which has been proven effective for LGBTQ+ couples. This method helps partners identify emotional patterns, express needs safely, and create stronger bonds. We combine this with other evidence-based techniques, always tailoring our approach to each couple’s unique situation.

The duration of counseling varies depending on your specific needs and goals. Some couples achieve their objectives in between 10-20 sessions, while others benefit from longer-term support.

We provide in-person couples counseling at our Greenwood Village office, just west of DTC and convenient to Centennial, Cherry Hills Village, and Lone Tree.

Yes, we provide secure online telehealth sessions for couples throughout Colorado. Virtual counseling offers the same quality of care as in-person sessions while providing greater flexibility and accessibility for busy couples.

Your first session will focus on getting to know you both and understanding your relationship goals. Your therapist will:

  • Create a comfortable, safe space for open discussion
  • Learn about your relationship history and current challenges
  • Discuss your hopes and expectations for therapy
  • Begin shaping a path forward together
  • Answer any questions you have about the counseling process

Consider seeking couples counseling if you:

  • Experience recurring conflicts or communication difficulties
  • Feel emotionally disconnected from your partner
  • Are navigating major life transitions together
  • Want to strengthen your relationship proactively
  • Are dealing with trust or intimacy issues
  • Need support with LGBTQ+ specific challenges
  • Are considering marriage or commitment ceremonies

It’s common for one partner to be hesitant about starting therapy. We encourage you to:

  • Share your reasons for wanting to try counseling
  • Express your commitment to improving the relationship
  • Invite them to review our website and therapist profiles
  • Suggest starting with a single session to experience our approach
  • Contact us with any questions or concerns about the process

Remember, investing in your relationship through LGBTQ+ couples counseling is a sign of strength and commitment to growth together. If your partner simply isn’t ready or willing to participate in couples counseling, individual counseling focused on improving your relationship can be a good place to start.
