I offer 50-, 75-, and 100-minute sessions. Most couples continue with 75-minute sessions after the initial assessment process. 50-minute and extended 100-minute sessions are also available when appropriate.

Couples begin with a structured assessment process before moving into ongoing sessions. You can read more about that process below.

I begin couples therapy with a structured assessment process because I want to understand both of you and your relationship before we jump into trying to fix it.

The assessment typically includes:

• One 100-minute couples assessment session

• One 100-minute assessment block, with 50 minutes individually with each partner

• Gottman relationship assessments

• One 75-minute feedback and treatment-planning session

This gives us a clearer picture of your relationship, each partner’s perspective, your strengths, the places you’re getting stuck, and what we want to work on together.

• 50-minute session: $205

• 75-minute session: $307

• 100-minute session: $410

For ongoing couples therapy, I generally recommend 75-minute sessions because the additional time gives us more room to move beyond checking in and actually work with what is happening between you. Some couples meet for 75 minutes every other week rather than having shorter weekly sessions, which can also make therapy more manageable financially.

Fifty-minute sessions are also available and may be a better fit depending on your goals, finances, and where you are in the therapy process. I occasionally recommend 100-minute sessions when additional time would be particularly useful.

No. Revive Relationship Counseling is a private-pay practice, which means I do not bill insurance companies directly.

Because my practice is focused almost exclusively on couples and relationship concerns, insurance is often not a good fit for the work I do. Insurance reimbursement generally requires a mental health diagnosis for an identified patient, while my couples work focuses on the relationship and both partners.

I can provide a superbill that you may submit to your insurance company for possible out-of-network reimbursement. Coverage varies by plan, so I recommend checking your out-of-network benefits directly with your insurance company before beginning therapy.

I use Stripe through the SimplePractice portal to charge the credit card on file after each session. I also accept third-party payments, such as payment from a church or clergy member.

I require at least 48 hours’ notice to cancel or reschedule a session without being charged. With less than 48 hours’ notice, the full session fee applies.

I understand that emergencies and unexpected situations happen. If something truly unavoidable comes up, please reach out and we can discuss it.

No, I see clients Monday through Thursday during daytime hours. My in-person appointments in Centennial are Wednesdays and Thursdays, with virtual appointments available Monday through Thursday.

I generally recommend reserving a recurring appointment time whenever possible. Having the same day and time makes therapy easier to plan around and helps us maintain consistency.

Most couples begin weekly, although frequency may change as therapy progresses. We can talk about what makes sense for your relationship, goals, schedules, and my availability.

Yes. I currently offer in-person sessions on Wednesdays and Thursdays in Centennial, Colorado. Virtual appointments are available Monday–Thursday for clients located in Colorado, Texas, Utah, Washington, and Idaho.

Yes. I provide online couples counseling and sex therapy Monday through Thursday for clients located in Colorado, Texas, Utah, Washington, and Idaho, where I’m licensed as a Marriage and Family Therapist.

I also offer in-person sessions on Wednesdays and Thursdays in Centennial, Colorado.

You don't have to wait until your relationship is in crisis. Couples therapy can be useful when you keep having the same arguments, feel more like roommates than partners, are struggling sexually, have trouble repairing after conflict, or know something in the relationship isn't working as well as you'd like.

Some couples come in because they're seriously worried about their relationship. Others come because things are mostly okay, but there's an area they haven't been able to figure out on their own.

If you're wondering whether what you're dealing with is something I work with, we can talk about it during a free consultation.

There isn't a set number of sessions that works for every couple. How long therapy takes depends on what brings you in, how long the concerns have been present, your goals, and what happens as we begin working together.

I generally recommend starting consistently rather than spacing sessions too far apart. As therapy progresses, we'll regularly check in about what's changing, what's still stuck, and whether the frequency of sessions still makes sense.

A previous experience with couples therapy can absolutely make it harder to try again. Sometimes the therapist wasn't a good fit for one or both partners. Sometimes the approach wasn't the right fit for what you needed. And sometimes you may simply need something different now than you did then.

That's one reason I offer a free consultation before we begin. Both of you get a chance to meet me, ask questions, and decide whether my style and approach feel like a better fit.

You don't need to prepare anything elaborate. Some people find it helpful to think about what they most want to be different in their relationship or what they hope I'll understand about what's been happening. Others show up unsure where to start. That's okay too.

If you've done couples therapy before, it can be useful to think about what was and wasn't helpful about that experience.

Confidentiality is an important part of therapy. In most circumstances, what you share with me remains private. There are legal and ethical exceptions to confidentiality, including certain situations involving safety, abuse or neglect, or when disclosure is otherwise required by law. I'll review confidentiality and its limits with you as part of the intake process.

If you'd like me to coordinate with another provider, such as a physician, psychiatrist, clergy member, or another therapist, I'll need the appropriate written authorization before sharing information.

Couples therapy also has some additional considerations around confidentiality and releases of information, which we'll review together before beginning treatment.

My practice is focused almost exclusively on couples, but there are some situations where couples therapy with me may not be the right place to start.

I may not be the best fit when:

• There is ongoing abuse, coercion, or a significant safety concern in the relationship. Couples therapy may not be appropriate when one partner cannot participate safely or honestly.

• One or both partners are experiencing significant mental health or substance-use concerns that need more immediate or specialized treatment before couples work can be productive.

• The relationship is currently in significant crisis or instability that requires a higher level of care.

• You are primarily seeking affair-recovery treatment. While relationship injuries may certainly come up in my work, affair recovery is not one of my primary specialties.

• One partner is completely unwilling to participate in the therapy process. You don't have to agree about the problems or even be equally enthusiastic about therapy, but I do need both partners willing to engage.

If you're unsure whether your situation falls within my scope, that's a good thing to talk about during the free consultation. If I'm not the right fit, I'll let you know and, when possible, suggest other resources.

You'll receive a response from me to schedule your free 15-minute phone consultation. If you're seeking couples therapy, I prefer that both partners join the call whenever possible.

During the consultation, I'll ask a few questions about what brings you to therapy, answer any questions you have, and we'll get a sense of whether I might be a good fit for you.

If we decide to move forward, I'll send you the information you need to schedule your first assessment session and complete your intake paperwork. Please complete all intake paperwork at least 24 hours before your first session so I have time to review it beforehand.

If I don't think I'm the right therapist for what you're looking for, I'll let you know and, when possible, suggest other resources that may be a better fit.
