Common Questions About Couples Counseling
What if my partner won't come?
If your partner is not ready for couples counseling, then you can start with individual relationship counseling. This is a good place to begin the process and slowly move to couples counseling. One person changing patterns can shift the entire dynamic.
How does couples therapy work?
The process for couples therapy typically begins with an initial joint session. This includes both partners coming to the counseling appointment to create goals and share perspectives. After the first session, the counselor will often provide individual meetings to get to know each partner. From this point, the clinical work begins with a focus on skill building and goals. Common areas of growth include:
- Understanding your needs
- Learn active listening
- De-escalation
- Communication frameworks
- Creating regular check-ins to measure growth
