About Us
The Hope Couples Project is a University-based resource center for couples, religious leaders, and professional therapists using the Hope focused approach for couples counseling or enrichment.
Services
We offer low-cost, research-based couples counseling, enrichment, and relationship health checks to couples in the Hampton Roads area.
History
We started with just a professor and a few students, working out of a small room in 2007. All these years later, we have served over 500 couples to repair and improve their relationship, written numerous articles and professional scientific presentations on our couples' experiences, and published a book about it.
Our passion and dedication remain strong. Join us in our mission to create healthy relationships.
