What is your go-to approach for couples/marriage counseling?

My go-to approach for helping people in couples/marriage counseling is to work on communication skills, conflict management, and empathy for understanding differences. I find that when they have these skills, couples will have the ability to feel connected and thrive in their relationship with each other.

What tools do you teach in couples/marriage counseling?

I teach the following tools in couples/marriage counseling:

  • Communication skills: Give you the ability to effectively and efficiently convey your thoughts and ideas by using your words, tone, and body language.
  • Conflict management skills: Learning skills to help you resolve conflict in an efficient manner.
  • Empathy: Ability to sense other people’s emotions, coupled with the ability to imagine what someone else might be thinking or feeling.

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in couples/marriage counseling?

I know a client is making meaningful progress in couples/marriage counseling when both parties are feeling more satisfied in their relationship, and are more able to handle the conflicts couples go through.

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement couples/marriage counseling?

Clients can supplement their time in couples/marriage counseling with dates, studying good habits of a healthy relationship, finding fun together, and learning ways to serve each other.

What should someone do to prepare for starting couples/marriage counseling?

To prepare for your first couples/marriage counseling session, you can come ready to be open with your struggles. I will guide you to the next steps.

Marriage Counseling in Orlando, FL—Marriage Counselors, Therapists

Although many people will instinctively choose to try and resolve their problems alone, professional help in the form of couples or marriage counseling can often prove advantageous for both partners. Many couples find that conflict resolution is easier to achieve under the guidance of a counselor who has no connection and no preconceived ideas about their relationship. Couples therapy or marriage counseling allows them to gain some perspective and become better communicators.

If you think that you and your spouse could benefit from some time in marriage counseling or couples therapy, consider reaching out to Thriveworks Orlando, FL. Our therapists and counselors can serve as that necessary third party, and they come uniquely equipped with tools and techniques that are proven to help couples work through their problems and improve their relationships. To schedule a marriage counseling or couples therapy appointment, just call our office. We’ll be here!

What Is Marriage Counseling?

Couples therapy or marriage counseling is a form of psychotherapy designed to help people involved in an intimate relationship improve their communication with each other and resolve their conflicts. Couples and marriage counseling sessions are typically designed for both partners to attend, although in some cases only one partner may choose to do so in isolation.

Most therapists will focus on teaching the participants how to…

  • Stay calm
  • Become better listeners
  • Negotiate with each other in a constructive manner
  • Avoid conflict escalation
  • And more!

It is important to recognize that couples and marriage therapy won’t offer simple solutions: a counselor is not there to tell partners what to do. The aim of therapy is to educate and allow the couple to reach suitable conclusions on their own. 

When Is It Time to Seek Marriage Counseling?

Many people will perceive couples or marriage counseling as a last resort scenario to save their relationship. The truth is that this type of therapy is often chosen by couples who simply want to keep their relationships healthy, work through any issues that could escalate into serious conflicts in the future, or even to prepare themselves for upcoming marriage. Whether you are in a troubled relationship or looking to develop an even stronger bond with your partner, couples or marriage counseling might be the right option for you.

At Thriveworks Orlando Counseling, our professional couples therapists and marriage counselors offer support to people at various stages of their relationships and with very different problems. Thanks to our extensive experience we understand how to best help our clients—we tailor our couples therapy and marriage counseling sessions to the individual needs of every couple.

Yeah, therapy is subjective so it's hard to rate a company based on one therapist encounter but I do have to include the company overall because it's essential to my comprehensive review. My therapist tried, was friendly and accommodating but just didn't work for me. The company overall is disjointed and maybe a little too big for proper management. You call a central number to get set up but when it comes to quitting the therapist it is up to you as the patient to do it all. Any attempt to log into the site gets redirected to an email link. The latest CSR I had unfortunately had a thick accent and was not really listening to me and my responses.

Hi I was a prior supervisor for Margaret in California where she did her post degree internship. She was a very skilled clinician who had many kids that were high-risk and lived in low-income families. Her relationship and interactive approach was very successful with these children and families. I was impressed with her skill and abilities. I would highly recommend her. Vicci
