Statistics show that one spouse in over 50% of marriages will answer yes to at least one, if not more, of these questions. Let us help you with couples counseling in Overland Park with Terri Dichiser at Take Charge Inc.

  • Do you feel alone in your relationship?
  • Do you constantly feel criticized and judged?

  • Do your ‘talks’ keep ending in the same old argument?

How can couples counseling help?

Marriage is one of the most meaningful relationships we’ll ever experience—but it can also be one of the most challenging. Even in a prosperous society, many couples find themselves struggling with emotional disconnection. In Johnson County and beyond, emotional starvation is an underlying factor in the rise of depression, anxiety, and relationship distress. 

Terri Dichiser offers couples counseling in Overland Park, KS, using Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT), a research-backed approach that helps partners reconnect on a deeper level. Through EFT, Terri helps couples identify and break negative patterns, rebuild trust, and create a renewed sense of emotional safety and closeness in their relationship.

Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT) research shows:

  • More than 70% of couples turned their relationship around from distressed, no matter how distressed, to happy in 15 – 20 sessions, and
  • More than 90% of couples “significantly improved.

EFT is a couples counseling therapy based on 20 years of clinical studies with proven results for couples in crisis. EFT couples counseling in Overland Park is based on therapy with your spouse in the safe environment of Terri’s office to help you create a haven of safety and strength in your relationship.

Arguing and fighting hide the hidden agenda and focus on surface problems instead of the root issues.

Terri uses EFT to help you and your partner move past the surface problems you face into the root issues that brought your relationship to this point. In these root issues, Terri guides you to recognize the destructive patterns of behavior and communication you and your spouse have created in your relationship. Couples recognize that these patterns and behaviors are the enemy in the relationship, not each other.

It is very difficult to seek help from a therapist. You keep hoping it will change or that you will read the right self-help book that will bring about change. Yet nothing seems to work.

Terri provides couples an atmosphere to connect to one another, engage in pivotal conversation, listen to each other’s needs, plus articulate their own needs to their partner while drawing them closer. All in a clear, simple conversation where parties feel in control about their deepest needs to feel connected and secure in the relationship.

Many therapists work with relationships but do not specialize in helping couples. They have NOT been taught an effective relationship therapy that actually works…outcome-researched therapy.

Terri‘s passion is your relationship. Terri believes in the effectiveness of Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy and the benefits it will offer your partner relationship. Terri recognizes that all relationships/marriages are as unique as the people who are in them. Terri allows the EFT process to reveal the unique qualities of each partner and how these qualities work in the relationship.

Research shows that most couples wait 6 years on average before seeking help.

The longer you wait to try couples counseling, the harder it can be to repair your relationship. Take Charge now.
