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.
The author Mignon McLaughlin once wrote, “A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person.” That’s a beautiful way of looking at intimate relationships, which are always changing because human beings are dynamic. We continuously grow as individuals, so our partnerships must fluctuate as well. But sometimes we hit roadblocks. Maybe one person is having new experiences, and their partner feels left behind. Or maybe one person is in psychological distress, and their partner doesn’t know how to help. And then there are times when circumstances that are out of a couple’s control threaten to disturb a union. In all these events, professional guidance can help.
