Couples therapy is unique in that the couple or relationship is the “client,” instead of one partner or another.

This means that the goal of therapy is to find solutions and strategies that work for everyone involved and the relationship as a whole. As an unbiased third party, your therapist can make objective observations, provide feedback, and help you develop the skills and tools you need for your relationship to thrive. 

Couples therapy can help you:

 
  • Improve communication and assertiveness skills

  • Understand negative relationship patterns

  • Develop effective conflict resolution skills

  • Improve trust

  • Increase intimacy

  • Establish goals and expectations for your future relationship

  • Identify relationship and partner values

  • Learn to navigate difficult family dynamics

  • Improve joint decision-making

  • Work through anger and resentment

  • Increase emotional closeness

  • Prepare for marriage and other milestones
