What Does Marriage Counseling Do to Help?

There are many different techniques that can be used in marriage counseling to help you and your spouse move forward in your relationship. For example, here are a few main objectives of the marriage counselors at Thriveworks West Bloomfield in Oakland:

1. Problem Identification: Your marriage counselor can help you and your spouse identify the specific problems in your relationship, such as lack of intimacy, jealousy, infidelity, or financial disagreements.
2. Treatment objectives: Your therapist or psychologist will then work with you to come up with treatment objectives that will address those problems as well as overall goals for marriage counseling.
3. Solution-focused intervention: Your marriage counselor will focus on building an individualized plan for helping you and improving your specific relationship.

Reasons to Pursue Marriage Counseling

Our marriage counselors can help you and your spouse work through an array of marital issues, as well as prepare for issues that might arise in the future. For example:

• Communication: This is one of the most common reasons people seek marriage counseling. The reality is that sometimes it’s hard to communicate well with those we love when we are frustrated or unhappy. But a professional can help you do so.
• Jealousy: Jealousy can turn a relationship upside down, as it is often accompanied by trust issues.
• Anger: Anger can quickly lead to turmoil; fortunately, a therapist or psychologist can help individuals to better manage or express their anger.
• Finances: Partners might disagree on their monthly budget. Marriage counseling can help them to work through the stress associated with money and reach a budget agreement.
• Parenting: Many couples don’t agree on parenting styles and techniques, which can lead to disagreements and further conflict. A marriage counselor can help parents to discuss and decide on parenting strategies.

Again, the complete list of marital issues is exhaustive. The bottom line is that a marriage counselor at Thriveworks West Bloomfield in Oakland can help married couples to work through any and all problems in their relationship.
