There is a reason that romantic comedies are incredibly popular. Love and relationships make up a significant part of our human existence and can bring us great joy and fulfillment. It’s deeply satisfying to have a laugh while watching a couple find their happy ending.

What you may not see in many romantic comedies, however, is the hard work that goes into maintaining a relationship over a long period of time. This isn’t as easy as many people think it will be in the beginning. Challenges and difficulties along the way are normal. If you’re feeling distant from your partner lately or like your relationship is missing its spark, you’re not alone.

Many couples encounter problems they simply don’t feel like they can work past on their own. This can range from intimacy and communication issues to trust, infidelity, and so much more. Some couples who seek out therapy don’t even realize that many of their arguments stem from a core issue from the past that was never effectively addressed. Having the outside perspective of an experienced relationship counselor can be incredibly helpful in working through these problems collaboratively.

You have the power to nurture your relationship into one of strength, passion, and happiness. However, this requires the proper cultivation and care. A licensed professional counselor at Thriveworks in Irving, TX can help you work through your problems, build a stronger bond, and develop a newfound appreciation for each other.

When To Seek Out Couples Therapy and Marriage Counseling

All couples argue from time to time. Every relationship goes through natural ups and downs. After all, it’s hard to be with someone intimately for an extended period of time without some kind of issue or disagreement cropping up.

However, it’s important to realize when you have crossed over from a healthy disagreement or run-of-the-mill problem into more hurtful territory. Communication can make or break a couple. The way you feel about each other afterward often has more to do with how you responded and less with the issue itself.

While therapy is helpful for couples working through difficult conflicts, it can also be of use to couples getting through a life transition or a bump in the road. Many otherwise-healthy couples encounter stressful situations related to career changes, financial troubles, major life decisions, or a death in the family. These are not easy situations to traverse and relationship counseling can make for a smoother experience.

Premarital counseling is also common for couples about to tie the knot. Even if you feel like your relationship is otherwise healthy, dealing with marriage can be a stressful transition. Speaking to a relationship counselor can offer helpful insight into the challenges you may be facing.

Couples seek out counseling services for many reasons. Several include:

  • Communication issues
  • Intimacy and sex issues
  • Unresolved disputes
  • Behavioral issues
  • Substance abuse or addictive behaviors
  • Infidelity and unfaithfulness
  • External stresses such as family, friends, or career
  • Parenting issues
  • Financial stressors
  • Ending a relationship
  • Navigating non-traditional relationships

If you want to improve your relationship and open up lines of communication, the licensed therapists at Thriveworks Counseling in Irving, TX are standing by.

The Advantages of Couples Counseling

If you’re experiencing trouble in your relationship, it’s important to realize that you are not alone. Many people have felt this way and that is exactly why our couples counselors are here to help.

During talk therapy sessions, a licensed couples therapist will get to know you both and understand the problems you are facing. Couples therapy offers a safe space where you can express difficult emotions and receive guidance from a trained professional who has helped many other couples in similar situations.

Therapy sessions can help you navigate a specific crisis but they can also teach you tools to prevent future conflicts and communicate more effectively. After therapy, many couples find that they have a better understanding of each other and why they fell in love in the first place.
