You want to be together.

But relationships are sometimes hard, whether you’ve been a couple for months or years.
Responsibilities, work, and life can get in the way — adding stress, making it challenging to find time for each other, and sometimes causing misunderstandings.
Additionally, you may face problems or concerns as a couple. You may feel as if you’re:
- Struggling to find time for each other
- Worried about how committed your partner is to the relationship
- Unable to talk openly and really communicate with each other, especially about hard topics
- Wondering about where this relationship is heading
Some couples may also be trying to work through feelings of mistrust, infidelity, or challenges with living together or sharing children.
Yet, you know your relationship is worth the effort — worth repairing and strengthening.
You want a future together but may not know how to get there.
You can reconnect and grow closer with couples counseling in Houston, Texas.

But you may have questions about our Houston couples counseling.
How long are couples therapy sessions, and what are they like?
Sessions typically last 90 minutes.
Couples therapy at Unload It Therapy begins with a four-part assessment that includes two individual and two couples sessions.
What is the difference between couples therapy and marriage counseling?
Couples therapy is typically for unmarried couples, no matter if they’ve been together a few months to years. Unmarried couples may have different focuses, goals, and challenges than married couples.
However, whether you’re married or not, our trained therapists can help you work through and strengthen your relationship.
What is the difference between couples therapy and premarital counseling?
Premarital counseling focuses on helping engaged couples develop healthy communication skills and relationship habits, so they can start their marriage with a strong foundation.
Couples therapy focuses more on what issues, questions, concerns, or obstacles the couple is facing. Sessions help couples work through current or past issues to reconnect and strengthen their bond. Sessions are tailored to their specific situation and needs, and may include learning new communication skills and relationship habits.
Is couples therapy helpful if one or both of us is considering separating?
Therapy can help you work through concerns or questions about the future of your relationship, even if one or both people are thinking of separating.
Our discernment therapy is specifically designed to help couples decide whether to stay together or separate — even when both individuals are not on the same page.
Contact us, and our team of experts will help you identify the right therapy for you and your partner at this time.
