Marriage counseling FAQs

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 Philadelphia, PA 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 Philadelphia, PA work with their clients to create goals, decide on ideal timelines, and establish treatment plans.

I absolutely love working with Christina. She makes me feel good after every session. She is super thorough in her techniques and clear with communication. I also love that she takes notes throughout our session and is able to pick up on things that I say so we can discuss more about them and why I said it. She gives me confidence in my mental health.

I have seen many mental health providers the last 15 years. No one else I have seen has been as patient, knowledgeable, nor cared as much. I feel as though I have grown more in the last year than I have across my whole life.

I appreciate how patient Christina is. She doesn’t rush me, but she’s also not afraid to give me a gentle push when I try to bottle up. She’s helped me so much and the people around me can see the progress I’ve made!

I appreciate availability the most. Whenever I’m in need of service my therapist is an email or call away. There have been times when I was in immediate need because of serious life circumstances, she always made time for me and for that I’m eternally grateful.
