The marriage counseling work at Olive Branch is built on Family Systems therapy, which means sessions focus on the patterns between partners rather than assigning blame to either person.
Your therapist looks at the cycle the two of you are caught in, how it starts, what keeps it going, and what each person is actually trying to get when the conflict happens. Understanding that cycle is what makes it possible to interrupt it.
EFT, Emotionally Focused Therapy, is also part of the work here. It helps partners understand what's underneath the surface reactions and find a way to reach each other again.
Partners who are earlier in the process, not yet in crisis but feeling the distance grow, often find that couples counseling is where they can start without feeling like they've already failed.

Sessions run $95 to $150. Olive Branch is out of network with insurance, and most major plans don't reimburse for marriage counseling since it doesn't require an individual psychiatric diagnosis. Superbills are available if you'd like to submit for possible out-of-network reimbursement through your plan.
Payment is accepted by cash, check, HSA, and all major credit cards. The practice also works with local churches and has third-party payer arrangements for couples whose congregation wants to help cover the cost of care.
No, and couples who feel most certain it's too late are often the ones who find the most movement once they're in the room. Hopelessness about change is common at this stage, and a skilled therapist has worked with couples in far worse shape than most people imagine possible.
That's worth a conversation with a therapist before giving up on the idea. Some couples start with one partner attending while the other considers it. Progress made by one person in a marriage system often shifts the dynamic for both, even before the reluctant partner is in the room.
Yes, for couples who engage with the process. The approach matters, and so does fit with the therapist. Family Systems and EFT, the frameworks used at Olive Branch, have strong track records specifically with couples.
The first session is a conversation where your therapist gets to know both of you, what's been happening, how long it's been hard, and what each of you is hoping for. Nothing gets resolved in session one. You'll leave with a clearer sense of what the work looks like and whether this feels like the right fit.
Getting started doesn't require knowing exactly what you need or having a clear picture of what you want. Most couples are seen within a week of reaching out, and the contact us page is where it starts, with someone from the office following up to answer questions and help find the right therapist for your marriage.
