At Courtenay Monfore Therapy, I can help you get “unstuck” in your relationship so you can truly find each other again.

Do you miss the closeness, ease, and excitement you once shared?

It feels like the distance between you two just keeps on growing. From that you start to feel lonely and unappreciated.

You’re tired of cycling through the same frustrating arguments without resolution.

And now you’re worried that the relationship might end. Or that you’ll feel stuck with the same cycle of conflict again and again.

What’s at stake is important. This is your relationship, the person you care about the most. But you also know that something needs to change quickly.

That’s where I come in. Therapy can help be the change so you can save your relationship.

How Couples Counseling Can Help

Your relationship doesn’t have to stay stuck in this place of distance and misunderstanding.

Couples counseling is about creating a path back to each other—one step at a time.

I use two powerful approaches to help couples repair their bond:

  • The Gottman Method: This method helps you untangle the conflicts that have taken over your relationship. It offers a clear roadmap to help you make sense of the drama, the emotional circus, to have a map and a way home.

  • Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): EFT helps you and your partner build relationship skills so you’re more present with your partner. You become less reactive and actually connect with each other in a deeply intimate way.

With those, you’re able to get close to each other again.

Your Relationship Can Feel Good Again

Picture waking up excited to see your partner again.

Looking forward to spending the day with them, knowing you can handle anything that can come your way.

Therapy is not just about solving what’s here and now.

It’s about getting to the root cause so you can truly have a relationship you enjoy.

Through therapy, you can feel that lightness again, like a weight has been lifted off both of you.

I know it’s hard to picture that right now, but there is a way through this.

I offer in-person couples counseling in Charlotte NC or virtual counseling through NC and SC to help you find your way forward, together.

If you’re ready to get on the path of healing your relationship, I’m here to help!

Common Concerns From Couples

  • You’ve probably already tried everything you can think of to make it better. That’s okay. There’s no shame in struggling to figure it out on your own. When you’re caught in the cycle of relationship conflict, it can be extremely difficult to see what’s really going on. It can seem impossible to find a way out.

  • Especially here in Charlotte, the demands of commutes, jobs, family obligations and more can make carving out time for your relationship difficult. You might feel like you just don’t have any time or energy to spare.

    However, consider how much time and energy relationship conflict is eating up. When you and your partner are clashing, it can be hard to show up as your best self.

    When a relationship is working well, it can serve as a foundation for the rest of your life. It can offer you a sense of security and safety—a space to rest and renew.

  • You can’t change your partner, and you can’t force them to come to therapy. You only have control over yourself.

    That said, a relationship is a dynamic system. While it’s ideal to have both partners in sessions, you can shift the system on your own. Therapy can help you recognize the patterns at play in your relationship and identify ways to change unhelpful words and behaviors. Once you start to make positive changes, your relationship is likely to grow in response.

Rates & FAQ

  • My rate is $190 per session.

    You can also use your HSA/FSA card.

  • I am considered an “Out-Of-Network” provider, which means I do not accept any insurance directly.  I’ve made the decision to work directly with my clients regarding payment, and they are very satisfied with this arrangement.

    If you would still like to use your insurance, then you can potentially do so if your insurance plan has “Out-Of-Network” benefits. The way that would work is, you would pay for therapy at the time of the session, and then I will provide you with a “superbill” that you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.

    I would recommend calling your insurance company to confirm if your insurance policy has OON benefits for mental health services.

    Otherwise you can choose to see me privately and not involve your insurance at all. See why many of my clients choose this option below.

  • Most of my clients actually prefer to work with me privately and not involve their insurance at all. This is because in order to use your insurance for counseling, a mental health diagnosis is required, and this gets attached to your record. If your challenges don’t meet the threshold of a diagnosis, then insurance companies can choose not to cover your therapy.

    -Insurance can put limitations on the number of counseling sessions you can have, prior to truly completing the process.

    -An insurance company has a right to call the therapist and ask how sessions are going

    -At any point they can say that therapy is no longer medically necessary and cancel the coverage

    And by not taking insurance, I’m able to maintain a smaller caseload of clientele and devote all of my focus into helping people.

    Instead of taking hours each week going back and forth with insurance, I devote that time and energy to my clients, resulting in better outcomes for therapy.

    If you have more questions about this, or have questions about finding your OON benefits and would like to discuss, then I recommend reaching out to me on my contact page and I’d be happy to answer any questions.

  • When I’m not working with clients, you’ll find me catching up on a NYT article, coaxing my family to take a trail walk with me, attempting a new recipe in the kitchen or squeezing in time with friends. I am also a podcast junkie, a mango lover, wanna-be plant lady, a cheating vegan and an old soul.
