Couples Therapy in Altamonte Springs

Reconnect. Repair. Rekindle.

Why Couples Seek Therapy

Relationships can be our greatest source of joy—and also our deepest source of pain. Whether you’re navigating frequent conflict, feeling emotionally distant, healing from betrayal, or struggling to communicate, couples therapy offers a space to slow down and work through the hard stuff together.

At New Light Counseling, we believe that healing and growth are possible when both partners feel heard, respected, and supported.

Common Challenges We Help With

  • Communication breakdowns or constant arguing

  • Feeling disconnected or emotionally neglected

  • Infidelity, mistrust, or jealousy

  • Life transitions impacting your relationship (parenthood, moves, job changes)

  • Intimacy concerns—emotional or physical

  • Managing blended family dynamics

  • Rebuilding after betrayal or emotional withdrawal

Whether you’re dating, engaged, married, or in a long-term partnership, we support couples of all kinds and stages.

Our Approach to Couples Counseling

We offer couples therapy that’s collaborative, structured, and grounded in evidence-based work—while still honoring the uniqueness of your relationship.

We draw from:

  • Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) – to strengthen emotional bonds and improve attunement

  • The Gottman Method – to improve communication and conflict resolution

  • Attachment-Based and Relational Work – to explore how each partner’s past may be impacting the present

  • Trauma-Informed Care – to create safety for vulnerability, especially in relationships carrying pain from past experiences

Our work is never about taking sides—it's about helping you both understand and be understood.
