How can marriage counseling in Overland Park help?

Marriage is one of life’s most meaningful bonds—but it’s not without its challenges. Even in a thriving community like Johnson County, many couples find themselves feeling emotionally disconnected from their partner. In a world filled with busyness and pressure, emotional starvation has quietly become a root cause of depression and anxiety, even within marriages.

Terri offers marriage counseling in Overland Park using Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT), a proven approach that helps couples rebuild connection and trust. By identifying and addressing negative patterns in your relationship, Terri guides you and your spouse toward a deeper emotional bond. Through therapy, you'll gain tools to foster a renewed sense of safety, intimacy, and understanding in your most important 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 and marriage counseling therapy based on 20 years of clinical studies with proven results for couples in crisis. EFT couples and marriage 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 marriage. Marriage is based on a connection with your spouse that makes you stronger as an individual and in your marriage.

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 spouse 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 realize that these patterns and behaviors are the enemy in the marriage, 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 and marriage counseling in an atmosphere for couples to connect to one another, engage in pivotal conversations, 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 of 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.
