What is your go-to approach for couples/marriage counseling?

I teach communication skills and help them to engage with each other. I also try to remind them of the value of their relationship, as they got into it because they found this person exciting/attractive/caring and wanted to pursue him or her.

What tools do you teach in couples/marriage counseling?

I teach the speaker/listener technique, decision-making, value assessment, and future goals.

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in couples/marriage counseling?

One of the clients will often verbalize how they believe the relationship is going. You can see the progress or lack thereof in the verbal or nonverbal communication between them.

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement couples/marriage counseling?

Clients are making progress when they are planning places they want to go in the city or larger for quality time. This sometimes is restaurants or walks in the park. It is not about the specific place, but the person you are with.

What should someone do to prepare for starting couples/marriage counseling?

Think of your goals for your relationship and you as a person in that relationship.

I love my Dr Odu-Onikosi. But I have had several very bad experiences with the appt makers and supervisors over the appt making ( if there are any supervisors ....as no one has ever called me back ) The mis information they provide is gross and straight up not correct. You are probably losing patients over this as if I didn't like my Dr so much this second instance would have made me stop using Thrive for my needs all together.
