If counseling didn't work last time, it's not because you didn't try hard enough. It's because it didn't address what actually makes a difference.

You love each other. That's never been the question. But somewhere between work, kids, old wounds, and the same argument on repeat, you've started to feel more like roommates managing a household than partners who actually choose each other. You're not broken — you're stuck in a pattern, and patterns can be understood and changed.

"We Keep Having the Same Fight"

You love each other, but you fall into the same argument over and over — and nothing actually gets resolved. It leaves you feeling exhausted and far away from someone you're supposed to feel closest to.

"We've Tried Before and It Didn't Stick"

Maybe you've done marriage counseling already. It felt fine, but the therapist seemed disengaged, forgot what you'd talked about, and nothing really changed. You stopped going and kind of gave up on the idea for a while.

"One of Us Isn't Sure Couples Therapy Will Work"

Part of you is ready to do this work. But you're not sure your partner will agree to come, and bringing it up feels like it could turn into another fight instead of a fresh start.

No pressure. No Insurance Hassle

Couples are seen, heard, and supported through every barrier when they work with us.

Start With Someone Who Actually Gets It

Your first conversation is a chance to finally say what's going on without worrying you're explaining it wrong, or that you're "too much" for saying it at all.

Match You With the Right Therapist

No generalist assigned by a network. You're matched with a specialist trained in relationship trauma, attachment, and intimacy.

Find Out What's Really Underneath the Fight

You'll finally understand why this keeps happening... it's often something older than the relationship itself.

So instead of white-knuckling through the same argument again, you're working on what's actually causing this dynamic.

Remember What It Feels Like to Be a Team

This is the moment the walls come down and you feel like you're actually on the same side again — not just coexisting, not just managing a life together, but choosing each other.

Meet You Where You Are — Evenings and Weekends

Online sessions available outside the 9-to-5, so a packed schedule isn't the reason this doesn't happen.

Support You Even If Only One of You Is Ready

Many clients start individually and bring their partner in later. Even solo work creates real, lasting change in the relationship.

We'll get you matched with a specialist for exactly what you're living with.

Here's What Makes Love Heal Grow Therapy Work When Other Things Haven't

You've probably already tried something — communication books, a therapist who felt disengaged, just powering through it yourselves. If none of that stuck, it's not because you didn't try hard enough. It's because most approaches manage the symptoms instead of treating what's actually underneath them.

Here's why Love Heal Grow is different:

A therapist who remembers your story session to session, not a generalist starting from scratch each time

Private-pay by design, which means specialists in relationship trauma... not whoever your insurance network assigned you

Evening and weekend availability, so a busy schedule isn't the reason this doesn't happen

Sacramento's #1 rated mental health practice, two years running

You don't need both partners "all in" on day one — even one committed partner creates real change

Real tools that work between sessions, not just 50 minutes of listening.

Trauma-informed methods (EFT, IFS, EMDR) — not just communication tips you've already read

This isn't about trying harder at something that was never going to fix itself. It's about finally addressing what's underneath the pattern — with someone trained specifically to do that work.

We're Sacramento's #1 Rated Practice — Two Years Running

Voted #1 in Mental Health Services in Sacramento, trusted by couples and individuals across the city, two years in a row.

Real Trauma-Informed Training, Not Just Talk Therapy

Our therapists are trained in EFT, IFS, and EMDR — methods built specifically to reach the patterns that talk therapy alone can't touch.

Led by 15+ Years of Specialized Experience

Our practice is led by a licensed marriage and family therapist and certified sex therapist with over 15 years of experience in relationship trauma and attachment.

You're Matched With a Specialist, Not a Generalist

Support Over 1,500 Clients Every Month

We've built real experience helping couples move through exactly what you're facing — not theory, practice.

One Committed Partner Is Enough to Start

You don't need both people fully on board day one. Many clients start individually and bring their partner in when the time is right.

Evening and Weekend Sessions Available

Online sessions outside the standard 9-to-5 — so a full schedule isn't the reason this keeps getting pushed to next month.

No Insurance Waitlists, No Settling for "Good Enough"

Skip the months-long wait for an in-network opening — start when you're ready, with a therapist chosen for fit, not availability.

We have a therapist right for your personal situation

Behind that number is a practice built specifically around trauma-informed care, led by a licensed marriage and family therapist and certified sex therapist with over 15 years of experience in relationship trauma and attachment.

Wherever You Are in Your Relationship, We Meet You There

You Love Each Other, But You Keep Hitting the Same Wall

You've had the same argument more times than you can count. You're not on the verge of breaking up — but you're tired of feeling disconnected from someone you chose to build a life with, and you want real tools, not just another conversation that goes nowhere.

You've Already Tried Counseling — It Just Didn't Work

Maybe you saw a therapist together before. They were fine, but something was missing — they felt disengaged, forgot details, or the sessions never went beyond surface-level advice. You're not opposed to therapy. You just haven't found the right fit yet.

You're Ready to Start — Your Partner Isn't Sure Yet

You know something needs to change, but you're not sure your partner will agree to come, and bringing it up feels risky. The good news: you don't need both of you fully on board to start seeing real change.

Before You Book, Here's What You Should Know...

Do you take insurance?

No — Love Heal Grow is private-pay, which means no networks, no pre-authorization, and no waiting months for an in-network opening. This also lets us hire specialists trained specifically in relationship trauma and attachment, rather than generalists assigned by a network.

What if my partner isn't ready to come to therapy?

That's okay. Many clients start individually and bring their partner in when the time feels right — even one committed partner can create real, lasting change in the relationship.

We've tried couples therapy before and it didn't work. How is this different?

Most therapy focuses on communication tips and coping strategies — useful, but often surface-level. Our therapists are trained in trauma-informed methods like EFT, IFS, and EMDR, built specifically to address what's underneath the pattern, not just manage it session to session.

How do I know which therapist is right for us?

During your free consult, we talk through what's going on and match you with a therapist who specializes specifically in couples work, trauma, and attachment — not just whoever has an opening.

What if we don't have time for one more thing?

We offer evening and weekend sessions online, so this doesn't require rearranging your entire schedule. A busy life shouldn't be the reason this keeps getting pushed to next month.

You Don't Have to Keep Figuring This Out Alone

Matched with a specialist trained specifically in couples work, trauma, and attachment

  • Trauma-informed methods (EFT, IFS, EMDR) that address the root, not just the symptoms

  • No insurance required, no waitlist — start when you're ready

  • Sacramento's #1 rated mental health practice, two years running
