Couples counseling is a series of confidential sessions with a licensed therapist focusing on understanding your relationship’s shortcomings and overcoming them. With guidance and support from the therapist, you and your partner will learn about yourselves and each other. The therapy sessions are a safe space to work through your relationship’s difficulties and find ways to resolve them. My job is to be out of a job and I do that by building the skills in you to overcome challenges.
Despite the benefits of couples therapy, it still carries a stigma. People assume counseling is only necessary if a marriage is at risk of failing or that it won’t help anyone improve their situation. However, the therapy works for couples of any background by teaching them how to:
You don’t have to have a “bad” marriage to benefit from couples therapy. You might need help reconnecting with your spouse or learning to compromise without one person feeling like the marriage has a power imbalance.
However, if you and your partner are experiencing any of these issues, consider attending marriage counseling for support:
At Couples Connection San Diego, we strive to help couples improve their communication, boost their intimacy, and strengthen their bond. Couples therapists utilize many therapeutic approaches to achieve similar goals. However, we find that emotionally focused therapy (EFT) benefits all couples regardless of age, race, gender, religion, and sexuality.
Our emotions are guides that help us define preferences and make decisions. EFT is a therapeutic approach that suggests:
We start every therapy session assuming that every couple wants help growing old together. We will use EFT techniques to help you and your spouse become more aware of your emotions, how to understand them, and what strategies are best for coping with them. Using EFT, Couples Connection San Diego helps restore marital and familial relationships that aren’t thriving.
Unfortunately, marital conflicts become destructive cycles of verbal attacks and harmful behavior that may breed resentment and anger. The longer the cycle continues, the more complicated it becomes, which makes some couples feel like divorce is the only solution. In some cases, spouses might not divorce but become withdrawn or retaliative.
Relationship-damaging cycles look different for every couple. However, couples therapy and EFT can help couples reestablish their connections and build stronger foundations to break the cycle and move toward a greater life together.
Couple Connection offers free, no-obligation consultations for couples therapy. During the consultation, we will get a general understanding of your concerns. In the first session, you and your partner will have the opportunity to discuss your concerns, needs, and problems individually and as a couple.
The information you provide will help your therapist understand the gist of your problems. As the sessions continue, you’ll learn EFT techniques to improve your communication and emotional responses. Our couples therapy follows a short-term model, so most couples require eight to 20 sessions to get the tools they need to achieve a healthier relationship.
