LGBTQ+ Relationships

How do you define your relationship? Whether your relationship is a marriage, domestic partnership, common-law marriage, unmarried partnership, or is undefined, Sara at Confluent Relationship Therapy can help.

Therapy can be a prevention or intervention! When struggling with a relationship, there are various issues you may experience that lead to starting therapy. These can include communication issues, intimacy concerns, high conflict, infidelity, contempt, in-law or family-of-origin issues, becoming a new parent, and more.
