Couples Counseling
The Student Counseling Center offers couples counseling for students and their partners (partners may be non-students). Services are provided for opposite-sex and same-sex partners. Couples in any kind of living arrangement are welcome (roommates, dating, married, engaged, living together, separated, or considering divorce). The SCC does not offer custody evaluations for parents.
Following an intake session, couples will be assigned to a therapist for regularly scheduled sessions.
As an alternative to regular couples therapy sessions with an individual therapist, the Relationship Enhancement Center (REC) is a specific therapy program designed to help students learn to communicate with their partners more effectively. Our REC therapists are specifically trained in working with couples and will help identify the useful and harmful communication patterns in your relationships and facilitate positive change. Therapy sessions are observed by a team of therapists and supervisors (via one-way mirrors) who provide additional guidance as the session progresses.
The Relationship Enhancement Center is available to couples for 4:00-5:00 or 5:30-6:30 appointment times on Wednesdays, and is available now during the Spring 2011 semester. Please contact Dr. Kasi Howard at kasi.howard@ttu.edu or (806) 742-3674 to schedule an appointment.
