Navigating Marriage Challenges: You're Not Alone

Even the strongest marriages encounter periods of conflict, disconnection, or emotional distance. Life transitions, unresolved resentments, or external stressors can create rifts that feel impossible to bridge. But help is available — and it starts with reaching out.

If you're in New Haven and seeking a compassionate, science-backed approach to healing your relationship, Dr. Somaia Mohamed offers expert marriage counseling in New Haven designed to bring clarity, empathy, and reconnection to couples who are ready to rebuild.

With marriage counseling, couples can:

• Learn how to resolve conflicts without blame

• Develop deeper emotional intimacy

• Rebuild trust after betrayal

• Improve physical and emotional connection

• Manage parenting stress, in-laws, or financial tension

Common Reasons Couples Seek Marriage Counseling

If you're wondering whether counseling is “serious enough” for your issues, consider these common signs it may be time to seek help:

• You feel more like roommates than romantic partners

• Every conversation turns into an argument

• There's been a breach of trust (infidelity, secrecy, etc.)

• You avoid discussing important topics

• Intimacy — physical or emotional — is lacking

• You’re considering separation but want to try one last time

Marriage counseling with Dr. Somaia Mohamed can help you explore these issues in a space that’s structured for healing, not hurt.

What to Expect in a Marriage Counseling Session

Many couples fear the therapist will “take sides” or force blame. That’s not the case with Dr. Mohamed’s approach. Her goal is to help each partner feel heard and understood while uncovering what’s really driving the disconnect.

Your sessions may include:

• Joint and individual check-ins

• Communication skill-building exercises

• Emotional mapping of past wounds

• Homework to build connection outside therapy

• Conflict de-escalation strategies

Sessions are typically 50–60 minutes and can be held in person at her New Haven office or virtually for convenience.
