Who Should Work with a Couples Therapist?
A lot of couples think, “We don’t need couples therapy, it isn’t that serious.” Here’s the thing: Couples therapy isn’t just for couples who have “serious” issues. In fact, it can prove beneficial to all couples, as couples therapists set out to help their clients improve every aspect of their relationship. Let’s consider a few examples: A newly engaged couple can benefit from premarital counseling, as they learn new tools for communicating and resolving future issues. Another couple, say two people who are newly dating, can benefit from couples therapy, as they get to know each other better with the help of their therapist.
