Starting Marriage counseling in Mt Pleasant

What is marriage counseling?

Marriage counseling, also known as couples therapy and relationship counseling, helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. Thriveworks marriage counseling in Mt Pleasant, SC 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 Marriage counseling include:

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

How does marriage counseling work?

Marriage counseling 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 marriage counseling 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 marriage counseling conducted in person or online?

Marriage counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.

How long does marriage counseling last?

On average, couples attend marriage counseling for 12 weeks. However, marriage counseling may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress. Marriage counselors and therapists at Thriveworks in Mt Pleasant, SC work with their clients to create goals, decide on ideal timelines, and establish treatment plans.

Marriage Counseling in Mt. Pleasant, SC—Counselors and Therapists

There was a time when you couldn’t imagine life without your spouse. You committed nights, weekends, and early mornings to being together and building your relationship. But over time, as the pressures of everyday life mounted and the energy you dedicated to your marriage diminished, your partnership may have suffered. This is more common among marriages than you may think. You want your marriage to work and your commitment is strong, but it’s become hard to ignore the issues facing your relationship.

Thriveworks of Mt. Pleasant is here to help you navigate this delicate time in your marriage.

Pleasant, you’ll find the support and tools you need to move forward in your marriage. Reach out today to get the support you need. We’re here to help.

What Causes Marriage and Relationship Problems?

There are many reasons why couples experience difficulty in their marriage. There are the demands of work and parenting. There may be financial trouble, an inability to communicate, or a lack of interest in resolving conflict. Maybe there’s a lack of intimacy. Or maybe infidelity has replaced happiness and love with a lack of trust and feelings of shame.

Every committed relationship is unique, however, and these are just some examples of the reasons couples seek marriage counseling from Thriveworks in Mt. Pleasant. We know that marriage requires hard work, trust, dedication, communication — and the opportunity to reflect on what works and what doesn’t. We’re here to help you navigate the difficulties you’re experiencing in a safe space. We work with you to renew your commitment to each other, and plan for a stronger, healthier future together.

At Thriveworks of Mt. Pleasant, our marriage counselors help married couples make lasting changes that bring them closer together and strengthen their relationship.

When Is the Right Time to Seek Marriage Counseling?

Timing is one of the most critical elements in determining whether marriage counseling will work. Couples tend to wait too long to reach out for help in repairing their marriage because they don’t know who to turn to, or they feel like there isn’t time in their schedules for therapy. We know that your life is busy. We understand that you have to juggle too much as it is, and your marriage only makes things more difficult to manage.

I am very pleased with Susan Jillson as my provider. The referral to her was a great match for my needs. She quickly grasped my issues, cared enough to ask me what I wanted from her, shared her ideas about a starting approach to help that I'm excited to try, and already gave me helpful information in the first two sessions with her. She is professional, knowledgeable, relatable, and funny at times. She was prompt and the hour flew by. I like that she thinks outside the box and is open to referring me to someone else for matters beyond her expertise, while still taking an interest in those specialties. Lastly, I feel comfortable and safe with her.
