Virtual and in-person counseling in Montclair, NJ


Relationships aren’t always easy

Even the strongest couples go through challenges—miscommunication, trust issues, feeling like you're living as roommates instead of partners. When your relationship feels strained, it impacts everything. But you don’t have to stay stuck.

At Stevette Heyliger LPC, we specialize in helping couples rebuild connection, improve communication, heal from past wounds so they can move forward with a stronger, healthier relationship. Whether you’re struggling with frequent arguments, the fallout of infidelity, or feeling disconnected, we’re here to help.

Couples Counseling: Strengthen Your Relationship

Every couple faces challenges. But when conflicts become patterns and emotional distance grows, it’s easy to feel lost. Couples therapy gives you the tools to break unhealthy cycles, improve communication, and truly understand each other.

We help couples:

  • Resolve recurring conflicts and miscommunication

  • Rebuild trust after betrayal or infidelity

  • Navigate life transitions and stressors together

  • Strengthen emotional and physical intimacy

  • Create a relationship that feels fulfilling and secure

Relationships

Therapy is a safe space where you can explore your emotions with your partner, and heal your past pains with each other. You can get unstuck and break free of the “negative cycle” that’s hurting your relationship. By solving those root issues, you can get back to enjoying your partner again.

Depression

Is depression interfering with your routine, relationships, or work habits? Do you miss the joy you used to experience in life? It is never too late to address your depression. Therapy can help you gain coping skills for long-term, sustained happiness.

Anxiety

In therapy, we can explore triggers, communication patterns, and coping strategies. You can develop healthier responses to anxiety, fostering stronger and more fulfilling connections with your partner. You will be in charge of your life, not your anxiety.
