How Can Couples Therapy Help?
In most areas of life, we don’t shy away from asking for help when we need it—say, when we can’t find something at the grocery store or we’re lost and need directions. Or, even when we’re suffering physically, from an injury or illness. In these instances, we reach out and appreciate the help that we are given. But the same can’t be said when we run into relationship trouble. Instead of asking for a little help and guidance, we usually keep these problems to ourselves and insist on figuring it out with our partner and our partner only.
In reality, “any couple who believes they are encountering roadblocks for a healthy and supportive relationship should consider meeting with a couples therapist,” explains Oren Shtayermman, PhD, Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker at the Attleboro office. “The presenting issue may be work-related or about child-rearing and in most cases, it is grounded in communication, perception, and cognitive understanding of what the other person is saying. Meeting with a clinician can help sort any confusion or challenge in a supportive and healthy environment with no bias attached.”
