Our Step-by-Step Approach to Relationship Success
To help with that understanding, the Family TLC method breaks down the therapy process into 5 manageable phases that serve as a roadmap for success. Each phase is designed to build trust, promote open communication, and address specific challenges within the relationship. This structured therapy provides clarity and ensures both partners feel supported as they navigate the journey toward conflict resolution and deeper connection.

Intake Phase
The process begins with a preliminary meeting, during which a licensed psychotherapist gathers essential background information and identifies key goals. This phase ensures the couple’s unique dynamics are understood, creating the foundation for a customized therapy plan. Whether seeking support for infidelity or improving communication, this step provides a clear starting point.
Discovery Phase
In this phase, the therapist delves deeper into the relationship’s core challenges, uncovering patterns and triggers that may contribute to the couple’s difficulties. This exploration includes understanding one partner’s perspective and the other’s, fostering insight to guide subsequent sessions. The therapy room becomes a safe space for sharing emotions.
Working Phase
This phase focuses on actionable solutions, skill-building, and addressing specific issues such as conflict resolution or feelings of disconnection. Couples therapy can also include techniques tailored to the relationship, such as improving communication styles or rebuilding trust. Both partners collaborate to make meaningful changes and repair their bond.
Check-In Phase
The therapist conducts regular check-ins to monitor progress, ensuring the couple’s needs are consistently met. These sessions assess whether adjustments are necessary to keep therapy on track. This flexible approach helps maintain a safe space for partners to express their thoughts and feelings as their relationship evolves.
Follow-Up Phase
In the final phase, we focus on long-term success by equipping couples with strategies to sustain their progress. This includes reinforcing healthy communication, preventing relapse into negative patterns, and solidifying the tools learned during therapy. This phase emphasizes maintaining the meaningful connection built during the process.
