Inclusive, Trauma-Informed Couples Therapy
At INDIGROW Psychology, we are committed to providing inclusive, trauma-informed couples therapy that honors the diverse dynamics of all relationships, including those that are polyamorous and involve kink. Our approach integrates attachment theory and the Gottman Method to foster secure, resilient connections among partners.
Attachment Theory in Couples Therapy
Attachment theory posits that early life experiences shape our patterns of connecting with others. Understanding these attachment styles is crucial in addressing relational challenges. In therapy, we help partners identify their attachment patterns and work towards developing secure attachments, enhancing trust and intimacy within the relationship.
The Gottman Method
The Gottman Method is a research-based approach that emphasizes building healthy communication, managing conflict effectively, and deepening emotional bonds. By employing strategies from this method, we guide couples in recognizing and altering negative interaction patterns, fostering a more harmonious and supportive partnership.
Polyamorous and Kink-Aware Therapy
We recognize that polyamorous and kink-involved relationships have unique structures and challenges. Our therapists are knowledgeable and affirming of these dynamics, providing a nonjudgmental space where all partners can explore their needs and concerns. We address issues such as jealousy, boundary-setting, and communication to support the health and satisfaction of all individuals involved.
Trauma-Informed Care
Understanding that past traumas can impact present relationships, our clinicians offer therapy through a trauma-informed lens. We prioritize creating a safe environment where clients can process their experiences and work towards healing, leading to meaningful and lasting change.
We are dedicated to supporting the growth and well-being of all clients, embracing the full spectrum of relationship styles and dynamics.
