Couples & marriage counseling in Pearland, TX

Meet with a local Thriveworks provider -- we accept insurance & provide personalized, high-quality care.

 

You might be familiar with relationship counseling; perhaps you’ve seen it in a televised drama, or heard offhand about it signifying the end of the road for the people who seek it. It might even be hard for you to imagine yourself or your partner ever needing to seek help from a therapist to resolve the differences between you: After all, it’s your relationship right? 

The truth is that while the relationship certainly is your own, there could be harmful habits and insecurities that you and your partner are attached to. This doesn’t mean that you don’t love each other, but being vulnerable takes a lot of bravery, and often we do our best to maintain a layer of defenses to avoid getting hurt.

Relationship counseling can be beneficial for establishing the importance of vulnerability, and while talking to a counselor about your private life can seem invasive, it might actually be a way for both of you to feel more comfortable being vulnerable and open with each other. Though it’s possible that some of these defense mechanisms have been helpful for you both to get to where you are in life, sometimes our habits from the past have to change to meet the needs of the present. Signs that you and your partner might have issues that could be resolved through relationship counseling include: 

  • Arguments that escalate quickly and aren’t resolved 
  • Passive-aggressive behavior that inhibits communication 
  • Hurtful comments or actions that aren’t addressed
  • Infidelity 
  • Feeling emotionally distant 
  • Lack of interest in physical intimacy, or anxiety about sex 
  • Lying or manipulation 

If you’ve experienced any of these signs, it’s possible that both of you could benefit from seeing a relationship counselor at Thriveworks in Pearland, TX. 

Do We Need Relationship Counseling? 

Deciding to seek counseling for your relationship or marriage can feel like a sign of defeat. As we’ve said before, it’s not. Being vulnerable with a relationship counselor can establish new ways for both of you to connect and having a third party with no stake in your relationship can help, too. Relationship counseling can assist partners to: 

  • Establish healthy boundaries for communication 
  • Rebuild trust after infidelity or dishonesty 
  • Rekindle sexual intimacy 
  • Regulate their anger or stress 
  • Highlight the importance and need for compromise in their relationship

Sometimes, only one partner is interested in seeking mental health services to assist them. Loved ones can be resistant to relationship counseling for a variety of reasons, one of them being that they’re worried about being blamed or judged by the relationship counselor. It’s essential to understand that the relationship counselors at Thriveworks aren’t trained to pick sides or pass judgment on their clients. Their mission is to put both of your mental health needs first and work with you to find the coping methods and strategies you need to enjoy a better relationship with your partner.
