Marriage counseling, also known as couples therapy and relationship counseling, helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. Thriveworks marriage counseling in Atlanta, GA is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples. Some examples of common focuses within Marriage counseling include:
Marriage counseling works by helping couples identify and better navigate their unique challenges. Following an initial assessment of the couple in terms of strengths and needs, the therapist would then discuss their therapeutic goals and any possible approaches or ways of working together as therapist and couple.Couples attend sessions together, whether they meet in person or by video. In addition to regular marriage counseling sessions, each partner may also be asked to attend a few individual sessions to supplement their progress. This will allow their counselor to get to know each individual better, assess each of their personal needs, and develop the very best treatment plan moving forward.
Marriage 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.
On average, couples attend marriage counseling for 12 weeks. However, 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. Marriage counselors and therapists at Thriveworks in Atlanta, GA work with their clients to create goals, decide on ideal timelines, and establish treatment plans.
Couples or marriage counseling is a type of talk therapy which aims to encourage better communication and equip spouses or partners with the tools that will allow them to improve their relationship. It is strongly encouraged that both partners attend the counseling sessions – only then can they work together towards finding a solution to their problems.
A successful marriage or couples therapy won’t provide one with ready-made answers – on the contrary, the aim of the therapy is to allow the couple to reach conclusions of their own. A counselor is an impartial arbiter who is there to foster constructive communication, teach partners to negotiate, listen to one another and better understand each other’s feelings and views. If you and your partner could benefit from couples therapy, reach out to Thriveworks Atlanta to get scheduled.
Relationship counseling is often seen as a last resort solution for those couples who are on the verge of getting a divorce or separating. However, one doesn’t have to wait until things get so bad before seeking professional help – many couples, in fact, choose to join therapy to prevent future conflicts, to work towards an even healthier and happier relationship or to get ready for their forthcoming marriage or parenthood.
On the other side of the spectrum there are couples who are facing serious difficulties – infidelity, conflict over financial issues, lack of agreement over core values and life expectations (e.g. having children) or loss of passion and interest in one another, for example. In these cases, couples or marriage counseling might be of particularly great benefit – allowing partners to settle their conflict or, at times, to part ways in a peaceful manner.
Identifying the right moment to seek professional help is not simple – every relationship is different and some couples might be more successful than others at dealing with their problems alone. Ultimately, it is down to both partners to decide when it is necessary to start marriage or couples counseling – although specialists note that once partners feel that the situation has reached a dead end and no progress can be made, it might be the right moment to do so.
The Gottman Method is an effective approach to couples therapy that involves a detailed evaluation of one’s relationship as well as research-backed mediations. If you and your significant other choose to pursue Gottman Method Couples Therapy, you can expect it to follow this structure:
You can also expect to tackle the following with the help of your couples therapist: 1) build love maps to better understand your partner’s stressors, worries, hopes, and more, 2) grow affection and admiration for one another, 3) better understand each other’s needs, 4) improve problem-solving skills, and 5) better manage conflicts.
