Starting Online marriage counseling in Amherst

What is online marriage counseling?

Online marriage counseling is a digital version of couples therapy, where couples can connect with licensed Thriveworks Amherst therapists through video calls to address and resolve relationship issues. This approach offers convenience and privacy, making it accessible for couples with busy schedules or those preferring a more private setting. It covers various relationship challenges like communication, conflict resolution, and intimacy, and aims to help couples build a healthier, more fulfilling partnership.

How does online marriage counseling work?

Online marriage counseling at Thriveworks functions by connecting both of you with a licensed therapist through our secure digital platforms, allowing you to engage in therapy sessions remotely. These sessions take place via private video calls, enabling couples to discuss their relationship concerns, objectives, and obstacles with a qualified therapist. Together, you’ll work on developing strategies for resolving issues like communication problems, conflict resolution, trust, and intimacy, among others.

Is online marriage counseling conducted in person or online?

Thriveworks online marriage counseling in Amherst, MA is conducted virtually through online therapy and in person at local Thriveworks locations. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does online marriage counseling last?

The duration of online marriage counseling can widely vary, depending on the specific needs and goals of the couple, as well as the progress achieved during therapy. Typically, online marriage counseling may encompass a series of sessions held over several months, with sessions usually scheduled on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. However, the therapy’s length can be adapted according to the couple’s response to treatment and their therapeutic objectives.

Online Marriage Counseling in Amherst, MA (Hampshire County)

Relationships are beautiful, fulfilling, messy, and frustrating. Marriages might be a promise to love unconditionally, but it isn’t a promise for smooth sailing. All relationships go through growing pains and come up against challenges that test their bond.

Strains in your relationship are not a sign your relationship is broken or even unhealthy. It is something we all go through, and it might mean some slight adjustments have to be made or communication opened up. With a Thriveworks Amherst online marriage counselor, you and your partner can come out of this tricky time stronger than before. Reach out today for help.

What Is Online Marriage Counseling?

Online counseling is also known as teletherapy, and it is a great way to access professional, licensed counseling from the comfort of your home or office or another private space. For the most part, online counseling is the same as in-person counseling. It’s:

  • Confidential
  • Safe
  • Affordable
  • Client-centered

As counselors, our job is not to get you to see our way. Our job is to help you see your way, the most healthy and fruitful version of it. We are your guides and occasional mentor, but you are still in control of the direction of your life. Marriage therapy is about your goals, your relationship, and your future. Conversing over telehealth rather than in person doesn’t change those core truths of counseling.

Common Relationship Issues Discussed in Marriage Counseling

Specifically, marriage counseling is as wide as there are marriages out there. Whatever you and your partner are facing, talking to someone can open up communication and encourage healing and growth.

Thriveworks Amherst in Western Mass has seen couples for:

  • Work stress creating strain in the relationship
  • Financial stress
  • Loneliness in a relationship
  • Anxiety about the future of the relationship
  • Personal challenges that might be impacting the relationship
  • Adapting to work-at-home or stay-at-home orders
  • Coping mechanisms for the arguments and struggles that might come up
  • Communication progress
  • Differing beliefs or lifestyles
  • Learning how to live together
  • Managing busy schedules
  • Unmet needs for affection
  • Differing expectations for the relationship

These are only a few examples. Whatever you are struggling with, you don’t have to keep quiet about it. There is no shame in having problems in your marriage; you won’t find a marriage out there that hasn’t struggled! There is no problem too “big” or too “small” for a Pioneer Valley counselor. If you need an outside, unbiased, empathetic ear, we are here for you.

What Happens in an Online Marriage Counseling Session?

First off, teletherapy usually takes the form of a video conference. Secondly, teletherapy has been proven to be just as affective, and in some cases even more affective, than in-person counseling. When you meet in the comfort of your own home, your mind and body are more at ease. Research has seen people more willing to address difficult problems and accept change when they do therapy at home.

As for the actual content of a marriage counseling session, not much will change from in-person to online counseling. In general, there will be three stages that a marriage counselor will take you through. They are of course very flexible based on what you and your partner are coming in with and where you want to go.

  • Identifying conflict areas
  • Learning how to deal with conflicts as they come up
  • Preparing for future

Thriveworks helped me realize that I do believe people can change. I’m not the person I was three months ago, broken and fearful. I’m healthy and happy and for the first time being kind to myself. Thank you for giving me my life back.
