What Couple’s Therapy Achieves
Communication is the bedrock of every good relationship. There are two sides to this: learning how to get your point across in a kind and loving way; and listening to what the other person is telling you while acknowledging and validating their experience. This takes practice and can always benefit from professional guidance. Our couple’s therapy sessions focus on giving the tools you need to put this into practice, sort through the challenges you’re facing, and find the common ground you need.
It’s important to set healthy boundaries and resolve conflict with win/win solutions that make you both feel good. But couple’s counseling isn’t all serious. We’re also here to help you find fun, ignite passion, and remember what it is about the other person that lights you up inside. Our goal is to help you build a framework that will make the rest of your journey together happy and healthy.
How Couples Therapy Works
If you’re thinking about starting couple’s therapy, it’s important that you’re both active and willing participants. This will ensure we can get all the information we need to figure out what’s happening, find out what each of you needs from therapy, and get you both on the same page. Your therapist will start by asking questions that prompt you to think about and discuss key issues in a positive and constructive way. We provide a safe and judgement-free zone where you can put everything on the table, gain a deeper understanding of yourself and the other person, and get back on track.
