Couples Therapy
Couples therapy is a form of psychotherapy in which a therapist helps a romantically involved couple improve communication, resolve conflict, and strengthen their relationship. This therapy is effective for couples regardless of their marital status or sexual orientation.
The process begins with discussing struggles and connection points, allowing each partner to share their feelings. Next, core issues and negative communication patterns are identified along with shared goals. Finally, therapy focuses on changing harmful patterns, challenging negative beliefs about each other, and improving communication.
