Couples Counseling
Relationship therapy doesn't always necessarily mean there's an ongoing crisis taking place between two people. In fact, many couples opt for counseling in order to meet each other in a safe, non-judgemental space as equals and strengthen their relationship and friendship overall. In relationship therapy, the focus is on creating a safe environment where everyone has the right to openly communicate and share their feelings without the fear of being attacked or judged. Counseling can last anywhere from a few weeks to years, depending on the situation of the couple.
Roles in the relationship
Sometimes the roles in the relationship can be unequally distributed, or even realized in the first place, leading to built-up tension and unhappiness.
In couple counseling, we work to understand how and why both parties view the different roles, and how it affects the relationship overall.
What is it good for?
Beliefs and values
Oftentimes, the beliefs and values people have stem from their childhood and past experiences, and when they don't align within the relationship, miscommunication can happen.
Together with a therapist, couples can work towards gaining a clear perspective into each others' beliefs and values.
Familial relationships
It's not uncommon for familial relationships to burden a romantic relationship, whether it's to do with your own parents or the birth of a child.
Therapy can be a wonderful avenue to understand the underlying tensions and strains familial relationships can have on you and your partner.
Sex and intimacy
Problems with sexuality and intimacy are some of the most commonly discussed topics in relationship therapy and are often not as difficult to resolve as people think.
With the guidance of a therapist, it's often easier to realize and explore the underlying reasons for intimacy issues in a relationship.
