My go-to approach for helping couples is empathetic and nonjudgmental listening. I find the best benefit in allowing couples to articulate their opinions about what they are struggling with and set goals.
I teach the following tools in couples counseling:
I know couples are making progress when they are better able to hear each other, share their thoughts and feelings with their partners, and feel safer and more trusting of each other.
Clients can supplement their time in couples counseling with practicing skills, and working on goals that were discussed in sessions.
To prepare for your first couples counseling session, you can work with your partner to agree on the issues you are struggling with and identify common goals for therapy.
Thriveworks Couples therapy helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. It is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy include:
Couples therapy works by helping couples identify and better navigate their unique challenges. Following an initial assessment of the couple in terms of strengths and needs, the therapist would then discuss their therapeutic goals and any possible approaches or ways of working together as therapist and couple.
Couples attend sessions together, whether they meet in person or by video. In addition to regular couples therapy sessions, each partner may also be asked to attend a few individual sessions to supplement their progress. This will allow their counselor to get to know each individual better, assess each of their personal needs, and develop the very best treatment plan moving forward.
Couples therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend couples therapy for 12 weeks. However, couples therapy may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.
Couples counseling with a skilled caring counselor or psychologist can help you find the happiness you once had in your relationship. If you’re ready to work with a couples counselor at Thriveworks Cambridge, simply call us at (617) 380-4651.
