Couple/partner counseling provides a private and non-judgmental setting to explore both healthy and challenging patterns of connecting. Both partners are required to be currently registered students at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
Consider this service if your goals are to:
- Improve communication
- Explore collaborative problem-solving and decision-making
- Acknowledge and respect lifestyle and intimacy preferences
- Navigate relationship changes such as parenting, long-distance, breach of trust, etc.
This service is available to all students regardless of marital status or sexual orientation. It is also available to any two students who wish to improve their relationship or to work out communication concerns.
To start couples/partner counseling, please call the CAPS front desk together at (402)-472-7450 to schedule a couples evaluation. Both partners will need to be on the phone in order to schedule an appointment.
If you or your partner(s) need longer-term counseling or evening hours, Counseling and Psychological Services can provide community referrals. In some cases, individual counseling may be recommended before beginning couple/partner counseling.
