Heal Your Relationship With Professional Couples Counseling

“We’re having the same fights over and over.”

“It feels like we’re just roommates.”

“I don’t feel like I can trust them anymore.”

“We’ve lost our emotional connection.”

“We enter relationships expecting things to just ‘work out’, but we often lack the communication skills and strategies to handle unexpected hard times. Ready to fight for your relationship? Book a free first session and let’s talk.”

- Luke Hollingshead MA, LPCC, NCC

Principles of Couples Therapy

How does it work? Here are some core concepts:

Identify Patterns

Recognize your cycles, the role each partner plays, and how to break free

Learn Communication Skills

Speak in ways the heal, validate, and problem-solve

Rekindle Affection

Learn what makes your partner feel loved and begin creating positive memories again

Set Boundaries

Develop a sense of safety and respect which allows both partners to get their needs met

Rebuild Trust, Create Hope

Address the hurts of the past and have confidence that they won’t repeat

What techniques do you use?

I utilize many modalities to meet the needs of my clients, but here are my primary techniques!

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy gives you a firm understanding of how your mind and emotions work, plus techniques for managing them.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps you live a fulfilling life through your values and accept what you cannot change.

Existential Therapy

Existential Therapy deals with your conception of people, the universe, and yourself to increase life satisfaction and fearlessness.

What populations do you serve?

I serve a wide range of populations, but here are some that I tend to be a good fit with.

Gen Z (18-29)

New technology has radically changed the world, forcing Gen Z to adapt to new problems that previous generations never had to face.

Millennials (30-45)

Being a Millennial myself, I understand the societal and generational problems that many of these men face.

Teenagers (13-17)

Finding their identity, I frequently challenge teens to think about what they want from their life and bear personal responsibility.

Christians

Being a Christian myself, I frequently incorporate faith and spirituality into therapy for clients who request it. However I serve clients from all backgrounds!

Gamers & Geeks

As a massive nerd and storyteller, I often utilize media references and metaphors to help clients understand concepts!
