Couples counseling can be beneficial for couples seeking to improve their relationship and gain insight into the dynamics of the relationship.
The therapist will work collaboratively with the couple to determine therapeutic goals and develop a plan for therapy. Often the therapist will work with the couple to develop healthy communication and problem-solving skills.
The couple will learn to better understand one another and be a support for each other. There are many reasons why couples choose to seek counseling. Some of the reasons are infidelity, communication issues, life adjustments, sexual dissatisfaction, parenting, separation/divorce, and premarital counseling.
Couples therapy can be valuable for both married and unmarried couples.
