Trauma-Informed Relationship Therapy
"We both want a relationship that is different from the relationship we watched between our parents growing up but we keep getting caught in the same fights."
Are you seeking to deepen your connection and heal past wounds in your relationship? At Be Counseling Denver, we offer a unique approach to trauma-informed relationship therapy that integrates parts work and trauma approaches with couples attachment healing. This holistic approach allows couples to navigate through challenges and emerge stronger than ever.
Understanding Trauma's Impact on Relationships
Trauma can deeply affect how we show up in relationships. Past experiences can create inner conflicts and barriers that hinder our ability to connect with our partners. Traditional therapy often focuses on surface-level issues, but our approach goes deeper, addressing the underlying wounds that may be influencing your relationship dynamics.
The Power of Parts Work in Couples Therapy
Parts work, based on the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model, helps couples understand the different parts of themselves that may be in conflict. In relationships, these parts can manifest as defensive behaviors, emotional reactions, or communication challenges. By exploring these parts and their roles in the relationship, couples can gain insight into their dynamics and work towards harmony and understanding.
How Resourcing Enhances Couples Therapy
Resourcing, a technique used in many trauma modalities, focuses on building internal resources to help couples regulate their emotions and navigate difficult situations. In therapy, we help couples identify and strengthen their resources. These resources serve as anchors during challenging times, helping couples stay connected and grounded.
Integrating Parts Work and Resourcing in Couples Therapy
In our sessions, we integrate parts work and resourcing to create a safe and nurturing environment for healing. We help couples identify their protective parts and work towards integrating them into a cohesive, supportive system. Additionally, we teach couples how to access their internal resources to regulate their emotions and maintain connection during conflicts.
The Benefits of Holistic Trauma-Informed Therapy

Gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your partner
Improve communication and conflict resolution skills
