I'm Lee Burgess
As a Licensed Couples Counselor. Specializing in relationship issues, and ADHD, I hear these sentiments all the time. Most people are ambivalent about starting relationship therapy. I want to give you in depth information to help you make informed decisions about potential services on the FRONT END.
When my spouse and I started receiving couples counseling ourselves in the past, we had a huge head start advantage…
We are both mental health therapists. I had already received hours of intensive training in the exact method of couples counseling I began receiving.
That knowledge gave me a foundation and baseline that was invaluable.
I wish every one of my couples counseling clients could engage in a couples counseling 101 course prior to starting hourly sessions. There is so much rich and powerful baseline information that does not need to begin in a first session on a couch.
This is what I hope to provide in this course: Before Starting Couples Counseling
My hope for you:
I want to help. I want to give you a large library of cumulative knowledge I have gained from extensive training and work with couples. Outcomes of this course are intended to help you:
- Decide if you want to start couples counseling
- Feel prepared to broach and navigate the subject with your partner
- Know what questions to ask a potential provider
- Feel more informed and equipped in your therapist shopping
- Give you baseline knowledge as a head start if you do begin couples counseling
- Feel a more organized conceptualization of your relationship complexities
- Consider alternatives to try before or alongside couples counseling
