Our therapists provide couples therapy in Johnson City, TN

Relationship issues, while highly stressful, are actually not uncommon. This is especially true for couples that have been together for a considerable number of years. Relationship counseling can be helpful for resolving issues. The knowledgeable and compassionate mental health professionals at Thriveworks in Johnson City, TN are ready to talk with you and help you both take healthy steps forward in your relationship.

What Is Couples Therapy?

In couples therapy, partners meet with a marriage and family therapist in order to discuss persistent issues, improve communication and problem-solving skills, and implement other practices that improve the overall quality and health of a relationship. Marriage counseling and couples counseling are essentially the same, though one will be geared toward married couples rather than partners that are dating.

Partnering with one of our providers at Thriveworks in Johnson City, TN can open the door to professional insight and guidance as well as coping strategies and communication tools designed specifically for your relationship’s problems. Our providers can help you both to: 

• Establish healthy boundaries 
• Highlight the importance and need for compromise
• Rebuild trust after infidelity or dishonesty 
• Rekindle sexual intimacy together 
• Help both partners manage anger or anxiety 

Do I Need Relationship Counseling?

Deciding whether or not to receive counseling is a personal decision that you and your spouse or partner will need to make independently. However, we still believe that any couple, regardless of their relationship’s age or situation, can benefit from counseling or therapy services. 

In fact, couples therapy and marriage counseling at Thriveworks isn’t about being perfect or happy in our relationship all of the time. Instead, it’s about learning to be honest, open, and willing to compromise with our partners. If you’re in a relationship that’s suffering from unhealthy or negative dynamics, it’s possible that you’re experiencing: 

• Arguments that last for hours or days 
• Passive-aggressive or abusive behavior 
• Lack of respect for each other’s boundaries
• Cheating 
• Avoidance of physical touch or sex 
• Lying and other forms of emotional manipulation
