Starting Couples therapy in League City

What is couples therapy?

Thriveworks Couples therapy helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. It is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy include:

  • Jealousy
  • Trust issues
  • Infidelity
  • Opposing values
  • Different visions for the future
  • Disagreements in parenting
  • Lack of trust
  • Financial distress
  • Sex issues

How does couples therapy work?

Couples therapy works by helping couples identify and better navigate their unique challenges. Following an initial assessment of the couple in terms of strengths and needs, the therapist would then discuss their therapeutic goals and any possible approaches or ways of working together as therapist and couple.
Couples attend sessions together, whether they meet in person or by video. In addition to regular couples therapy sessions, each partner may also be asked to attend a few individual sessions to supplement their progress. This will allow their counselor to get to know each individual better, assess each of their personal needs, and develop the very best treatment plan moving forward.

Is couples therapy conducted in person or online?

Couples therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.

How long does couples therapy last?

On average, couples attend couples therapy for 12 weeks. However, couples therapy may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.

Does Couples Counseling Really Work?

  • Communication 
  • Conflict 
  • Anger and rage
  • Grudges
  • Substance abuse 
  • Extramarital affairs
  • Negative sexual cycles

Common Couples Therapy Goals

Partners may arrive at Thriveworks couples therapy with individual goals they’d like to bring up in sessions, such as:

  • To feel more loved.
  • To feel more appreciated.
  • To model a healthier relationship for children.
  • To reconnect emotionally or reignite a spark.
  • To resolve conflict and stop repeating the same fight.
  • To have better sex.
  • To see where one partner may need additional support (perhaps through individual therapy for depression or addiction counseling).
  • To learn how to express feelings and desires.
  • To create a “safe zone” where partners can talk honestly. 
  • To stop feeling stuck or stagnant.

What Are the Types of Couples Therapy?

Couples therapists at Thriveworks in League City, TX might enlist a number of different established perspectives to help couples heal and grow. For example, marriage counseling often utilizes the following approaches:

  • Emotionally-focused therapy, which looks at attachment and connection, and can help strengthen emotional bonds. 
  • Gottman method, which employs love maps to help couples increase their respect and admiration for each other.
  • Interpersonal therapy, which looks at how relationships can affect mental health.
  • Narrative therapy, which can achieve psychological insights by asking clients to tell and retell stories.

Reconnect with Marriage Counseling at Thriveworks in League City, TX

It’s not unusual for married couples to feel a diminished sense of friendship or “spark” over time. Healthy relationships require frequent check-ins and maintenance.
