Frequently Asked Questions

What is trauma-informed care in couples therapy?
Trauma-informed care means we understand how your past experiences may affect your relationship today. Our therapists approach each session with empathy, patience, and respect. Our goal is to help both partners feel safe—especially when talking about tough memories or feelings. Many couples appreciate our trauma-informed couples therapy in Essex County for this supportive approach.

How does telehealth work for couples therapy?
Telehealth gives you and your partner the chance to meet your therapist online, from the comfort of home. All you need is a private space and a secure internet connection. Sessions are confidential and work just like in-person meetings. Telehealth couples counseling in NJ makes getting help simpler—and just as effective.

Your first meeting is a chance to share your story and your hopes. Your therapist will listen, answer questions, and explain how sessions work. Together, you’ll build a plan that fits your unique needs and goals.

Is Maplewood Counseling inclusive of all relationship backgrounds and identities?
Absolutely. We welcome couples of every background, culture, orientation, and identity. Our office is a safe, affirming place for you and your partner—where your experiences are always respected.
