Marriage counseling, also known as couples therapy and relationship counseling, helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. Thriveworks marriage counseling in , MO 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 Marriage counseling include:
Marriage counseling 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 marriage counseling 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.
Marriage counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend marriage counseling for 12 weeks. However, marriage counseling may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress. Marriage counselors and therapists at Thriveworks in , MO work with their clients to create goals, decide on ideal timelines, and establish treatment plans.
Some of our most joyful experiences are with our partner or spouse: Positive memories from the time you first met, your first date, your first kiss, your first home. That time he spilled coffee all over his pants and you laughed for 5 minutes straight. That time she showed up at your door unannounced just to tell you that she missed you.
On the flip side, some of our most frustrating and upsetting experiences are with our partner or spouse, too: Memories you’d rather not remember from your first fight, your first “I’m sleeping on the couch,” your first, “Maybe we shouldn’t be together.” That time he refused to hear your side of the story. That time she threatened to leave and never look back.
You can’t save a relationship unless both people are equally invested. It takes a joint effort to make it work. One person trying will never be enough.” –Tony Gaskins

The reality is that relationships are give and take. They come with both joy and fury. They’re filled with both special memories and those you’d rather forget. They take time, effort, and work, every single day. And each individual has to be equally committed to keep the relationship alive. Fortunately, there is another individual who can help the two of you build and maintain a happy relationship: a marriage counselor or couples therapist. These professionals have the expertise and the experience to help and support your relationship. If you think that you could find benefit in working with a relationship expert, reach out to Thriveworks Missouri Counseling. You can schedule an online marriage counseling or couples therapy appointment today.
Think back to your most recent disagreement with your significant other or spouse: How did it go? Were you able to talk to and understand each other? Or was your disagreement filled with contempt, interruptions, and other poor instances of communication? If the answer is the latter, don’t be embarrassed or ashamed. This is the case for most couples. The truth is that we all need a little help from time to time or could benefit from a third party’s mediation and viewpoint. On that note, a couples therapist or marriage counselor can provide this mediation, outside perspective, guidance, and support.
In addition, couples therapists and marriage counselors can help couples work through specific issues. They will get to know you and your partner in the first session or two, and then they’ll be able to design an effective treatment plan for your relationship. You can trust that they’ll make an informed treatment decision, based on the needs that you and your partner identify in your first meeting with them.
Couples therapy or marriage counseling can look drastically different from one couple to the next. Why? Because as we just mentioned, counseling is built around each couples’ needs. So, in one instance, couples therapy might be focused on helping the couple develop conflict resolution skills. In another instances, marriage counseling might be focused on helping the couple improve their connection and intimacy.
In any case, specific relationship issues are almost always discussed in couples and marriage counseling. These relationship issues might include:
In any case, the couples therapists and marriage counselors at Thriveworks Missouri would be happy to help you and your partner work through your conflicts. They’ll guide you in confronting your problems and building a happier, healthier partnership.
