Couples Therapists in Hampstead, NC—Therapy and Counseling

The perfect relationship does not exist. Every single couple experiences challenges—small and large—that they have to overcome together. It’s human nature to argue and disagree, as we all have our own values, opinions, and goals. That said, it’s easy to forget that the challenges we come across in our relationship are normal and beneficial even. And sometimes, instead of working through these challenges, we throw in the towel.

You might find that a particular person or relationship isn’t right for you. However, if you do find a person and relationship that you love and want to maintain, you don’t have to throw in the towel. You can learn to work through the challenges at hand and come out stronger than ever. Some couples can do this on their own. Others, though, find that working with a couples therapist is beneficial and the component they’ve been lacking.

Who Should Receive Couples Therapy? 

Many of us maintain the following mentality: “They need counseling, but I (or we) don’t.” In other words, we see that therapy benefits others but we have a hard time accepting that we could find value in it, too. Here at Thriveworks, we strongly believe that everyone can benefit from working with a counselor or coach. That includes couples!

Deciding to work with a couples therapist is not “admitting to a failed relationship” as some people believe. Instead, it’s taking initiative and putting in the work to create an extremely successful relationship. Part of this success is working through the challenges you and your partner face. Common challenges for couples include:

• Financial strain
• Intimacy
• Differences in parenting
• Jealousy
• Infidelity

• Mental illness
• Addiction
• Grief and loss
