Strong relationships can help us thrive, don’t they? Think about how much better you feel and how your confidence seems to soar when you’re in a positive relationship. The sun seems to shine perpetually.

Of course, life doesn’t always work like this. Strong relationships may last, but their great moments can come and go. We will sometimes get angry with our partners and argue about a range of issues, from dirty dishes and laundry loads to overworking and lack of intimacy.

What happens when the arguments continue and the good parts don’t return? Maybe you and your partner have become so distant or detached that you can’t find your way back. You want to restore the laughter, the affection, and the love but you aren’t sure how.

If your relationship has reached a crossroads, consider making a couples counseling appointment at Thriveworks in Arnold, MO. By speaking with one of our licensed marriage and family therapists, you and your partner can learn to understand the issues causing those cracks and work on repairing them.

Situations That May Prompt Relationship Counseling

Why is your relationship struggling? It’s likely not for just one reason. Perhaps a long-term disagreement resurfaces from time to time. Or maybe a life event has caused stress or separation.

If you’re facing conflict, one or more of these situations might sound familiar:

  • Parenting disagreements
  • Infidelity
  • Substance abuse
  • Financial worries or disputes
  • Lack of intimacy
  • Distrust
  • Feeling unsupported
  • Jealousy or resentment
  • Lack of communication
  • The sense that you’re drifting apart

When these issues cause your relationship to suffer, you don’t have to give up hope. Consider seeking marriage counseling or couples therapy services at Thriveworks in Arnold, MO. Our counselors and therapists can help make your relationship bloom again.

How Does Marriage Counseling or Couples Therapy Work?

You might be confused about why your relationship has changed or how you got to this point. If so, a couples counselor can help you get to the bottom of your issues and guide you through certain techniques or types of talk therapy to strengthen your relationship.

The Gottman Method, for instance, helps partners manage their conflict rather than seeking to resolve it completely. Couples who use this form of therapy also learn how to communicate more effectively and increase affection and respect.

Your couples therapist might also employ narrative therapy, in which you and your partner share stories to understand and embrace each other’s experiences. This can be helpful in relationships where judgment has become a negative force.

With emotionally focused therapy, a counselor will guide you and your partner on a path of positive change. This form of therapy focuses on the way you interact and seeks to strengthen the bonds of your relationship. Meanwhile, with relational life therapy, couples can work toward defining their relationship outside the traditional gender roles of society.

Couples counseling can take many forms. Which treatment plan is the best for you? To find out, make an appointment with a couples therapist at Thriveworks in Arnold, MO.
