Starting Couples & marriage counseling

What is couples & marriage counseling?

Couples therapy and marriage counseling, also known as relationship counseling, helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy and marriage counseling include:

  • Jealousy
  • Trust issues
  • Infidelity
  • Opposing values
  • Different visions for the future
  • Disagreements in parenting
  • Lack of trust
  • Financial distress
  • Sex issues

What type of therapy is used in couples therapy?

The types of therapy used in couples and marriage counseling include:

  • The Gottman Method
  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
  • Emotionally-focused therapy (EFT)
  • Solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT)
  • Strength-based therapy

What kind of therapist is best for couples?

At Thriveworks, Couples & marriage counseling is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples.

What is the Gottman Method of couples therapy?

The Gottman Method of couples therapy is a research-supported approach designed to enhance relationships by bolstering the bond between partners, resolving conflicts, and fostering shared meaning in their relationship through comprehensive assessments and tailored interventions that improve communication, trust, and the overall health of the partnership.

How to tell if I need couples therapy?

If you’re facing persistent relationship problems, communication breakdowns, or unresolved conflicts that are impacting your emotional well-being and happiness, Couples & marriage counseling may be beneficial for you.

Should every couple go to couples therapy?

While marriage and couple’s counseling is typically recommended for couples who are experiencing persistent or severe relationship issues, any relationship can benefit from attending these sessions.

Is couples & marriage counseling conducted in person or online?

Marriage and couples 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.

How long does couples & marriage counseling last?

On average, couples attend marriage and couples counseling for 12 weeks. However, couples & 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.

How much does couples & marriage counseling cost?

At Thriveworks, we take most major forms of insurance, which means that many of our clients only pay $0-$50 co-pay per session. However, there are also self-pay options that sit around $200 per session, depending on the service and location, for those who are out-of-network.

Relationships Are Built One Step at a Time

A healthy and loving relationship is something almost everyone desires. We all want to feel that bounce in our stomachs when we hear the voice of someone we care about. We all want to feel that thrill when we receive an email or letter from our sweetheart. Couples counselors and therapists in Pflugerville TX know that to have a healthy relationship, you need to find a place where you:

  • Have someone to rely on and confide in
  • Have someone standing with you and supporting you
  • Have someone you can dream and share ideas with
  • Have a companion who comforts you during tough times

When you find someone like this, the natural desire is to spend more time with them, to build a relationship.

The conversations, emails, phone calls, time spent together and shared experiences, all of these things work together to build on your initial attraction. This investment of your time, and your partner’s, demonstrates to each of you that this is something worth developing. If the two of you continue to work together, to communicate and share, you can see your relationship grow around you.

Work Together to Maintain Your Relationship

Our therapists know that no relationship is free from trouble. Thriveworks couples counselors understand that maintaining a strong relationship requires consistent work from both you and your partner. All relationships experience the occasional storms of stress and conflict. When you have challenges in your life, your relationship doesn’t have to suffer. These occasional issues don’t have to cause your relationship to collapse. We can provide proven strategies that have worked in the past and may help. Let our couples counselors work with you to develop the blueprint for an exciting and satisfying relationship that overcomes these rough patches of life.

Couples Counselors Can Provide the Right Tools

Our therapists and counselors are relationship experts, licensed professionals who have been trained in various types of counseling to help couples. We tailor our approach to both individuals in your relationship, and help you address the specific issues you and your partner may be facing. This customized strategy can often help you make progress in a relationship you might have felt was permanently stalled.

Thriveworks provides counseling for couples to help you smooth out those rough spots in between you and your partner. Our therapists work with both of you to inspect the various areas of your life together, both inside and outside of the home. You can be confident this work is done in a caring and supportive manner, without being accusatory. Once we’ve begun to identify any weaknesses that exist, we can help you begin shoring up those areas.

Schedule Your First Visit

If you’re willing to work on your relationship, we can provide you and your partner with the tools to make it better. Our couples counselors and therapists have the knowledge, experience, and skills to help. More importantly, they have a desire to help you develop the satisfying life you want.

I have used many different counselors in different cities/states and I have had a phenomenal experience with Deissy Rosenbaum. She has helped with a broad range of issues from cultural assimilation to ADHD to reprocessing childhood trauma through a unique method of EMDR therapy. Because I had her support, I not only made it through a tough year (2020) but am thriving and have made progress in so many areas of my life.

I have been seeing therapists for about 20 years now, with little success. Until I met with Deissy Rosenbaum. It is obvious to me that Deissy deeply cares about my well-being; she combines complex techniques that I have never seen before, resulting in remarkable success. I have been able to remember things from my youth that were long suppressed, and feel much more whole inside. She is very humble, but her talents are quite impressive. I would describe her as patient, soft-spoken, and sensitive to my feelings. I could particularly see her working well with children, and in reality, getting in touch with my inner child was part of what really helped me. She is very easy to talk to, and I’m really happy I found her.

Words cannot express how awesome Grichell is!! I’ve seen a few therapists in my life, and by far she has been the only one to quickly figure out a way to explain things to me that make sense. There’s never any judgement, only direct advice and counsel that has helped me so much. I actually enjoy and look forward to my time with her! If you are told she has no openings, just know, she is well worth the wait in line.

I had the pleasure of using Alison Riley for my councilor. She's absolutely wonderful! She made me feel comfortable right away, which isn't the easiest thing to do. I was able to see things that I had closed myself off to for the longest, and she was even willing to have some of people I needed to talk to there so it was a neutral environment. I truly appreciate all the support she's provided. I feel like I'm much calmer now and much less anxious. Thank you so much, Alison!

I've had the privilege of working with Veronica and I'm truly grateful for her. It was the first time I felt accepted for who I am and comfortable to speak my truth. She has a very warm and accepting spirit that makes you feel at ease. The atmosphere is inviting and calm that's filled with a sense of peace. I will always recommend Veronica at Thrive Works and thankful for this experience!
