I'm Nargis Ali, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a Master of Arts in Clinical and Mental Health Counseling. I believe we all have unique strengths that help us navigate life's challenges. Seeking support through counseling is one way to rediscover and foster them. Since 2016, I have worked with both children and adults facing challenges like anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma, and life transitions. My clients seek to build practical coping strategies, process painful experiences, or find emotional balance.

Together, we will build on your strengths to help you navigate transitions and find lasting relief.

Thriveworks Couples therapy helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. It is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy include:
Couples therapy works by helping couples identify and better navigate their unique challenges. Following an initial assessment of the couple in terms of strengths and needs, the therapist would then discuss their therapeutic goals and any possible approaches or ways of working together as therapist and couple.Couples attend sessions together, whether they meet in person or by video. In addition to regular couples therapy sessions, each partner may also be asked to attend a few individual sessions to supplement their progress. This will allow their counselor to get to know each individual better, assess each of their personal needs, and develop the very best treatment plan moving forward.
Couples therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend couples therapy for 12 weeks. However, couples therapy may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.
When trust breaks down, it can be restored. It is not an easy process: rebuilding trust takes time and consistent effort. It may also require the assistance of a couples therapist. When partners are off track, they may want to get back on track, but often, they do not know how. By working with a couples counselor, many partners are getting back on track individually and within their relationship.
Every couple needs a little help along the way, and Thriveworks Counseling in Dallas, TX has provided that help for many people. Our Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists have worked with many couples who needed guidance for their strained relationships. Reach out today for help.
When couples are stressed and struggling and strained, each partner can feel isolated. They may feel alone in the difficulty and wonder, are we the only couple who is facing this issue?
It is understandable to ask this question, and the unequivocal answer is no, you are not the only couple to ever face this issue. It may feel that way because the details will always be unique. However, the underlying issue is likely something that other couples have faced as well. There are certain roadblocks that trip up many couples. These roadblocks are difficult, but they are common. And they have solutions. A few of these common roadblocks are…
Whether the challenge is distrust, disagreement, different expectations, or something else, many challenges are simply opportunities for growth. When partners have a skilled marriage therapist, they can often navigate these challenges and move forward with their relationship. How might marriage therapists help?
