Counselor Sarah Breidenbach leads a team that approaches couples counseling in a fresh way. Certified in the Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy (PACT), she observes a couple in action and points to observations that unlock patterns that would otherwise keep a couple stuck in repeated conflict. She is experienced in working with couples recovering from infidelity or needing repair around significant life events such as addiction or grief. Sarah’s style is down-to-earth and straightforward. She is able to be direct yet compassionate, confronting but kind, and believes it is her job to support a couple in creating their own manual for their relationship.
The team at Focus² will utilize tools and skills to help a couple understand their attachment style, communication habits, and intimacy needs so that they can independently integrate the work they’ve done in the room. Each couple can expect to walk away with a clear path and shared agreements on a variety of topics central to most relationships.
