Starting Marriage counseling

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

Common Relationship Issues

All relationships will experience highs and lows over the years. Regardless of how much love you have for each other, you will not always see eye to eye. In addition, stress from work, raising children, and arguments with family can all put an even bigger strain on your relationship:

  • Job loss or financial strain
  • Having different opinions on raising children
  • Struggling with communication with extended family
  • Experiencing loneliness or resentment
  • Going through major life changes
  • Struggling with anger or communication problems
  • Different political or religious views
  • Infidelity from one or both spouses
  • Trouble fulfilling individual goals
  • Coping with addiction or substance abuse

Have you ever run into any of these problems? Have you been searching for Troy therapy to get help with your marriage? If so, a marriage counselor at Thriveworks Troy in Oakland can help you address, work through, and find peace with any of your marital challenges. No problem is too big or too small to get help with. Reach out when you are ready.

Marriage Counseling: What You Can Expect  

Depending on what you and your spouse’s individual needs are will determine how marriage counseling works for you. Your therapist will first assess your marriage, taking into consideration both of your specific needs and goals. Based on the information they gather about your relationship, they will create the best possible treatment plan that is unique to you both.

We understand that opening up with your counselor can be hard. They will be able to help guide you through conversation and even help you make tough decisions. In some cases, despite their best efforts, some couples come to the conclusion that their marriage isn’t going to work. Your therapist can help facilitate healthy communication and give you the support you need to make these tough decisions. With the right support, you can minimize stress and look forward to your new future.

While many of us don’t want to admit it, marriage can be hard. It’s better to take the necessary steps to try and resolve conflicts when they come up rather than pretend like everything is okay. If you and your spouse are struggling with an issue that you can’t seem to overcome, no matter how big or small, reach out to a marriage counselor at Thriveworks Troy Counseling. We have psychologists who are ready to help you work through anything that may stand in between you and your happiness.

Rosemary has been nothing short of exceptional. She is so compassionate and clearly cares about her work. Rosemary has made me feel seen as a person, and provided a comfortable space for me to feel safe being vulnerable and open. She's compassionate in the way she speaks while simultaneously helping me to be more honest with myself so that I can get better. I could not think of a better provider to have helped me in the way Rosemary has!

This has been my first ever experience with therapy. My first phone call to get started I was treated with so much kindness and validation. My introduction session was also such a huge relief. I absolutely brag about my therapist. I feel so safe and so heard and understood. I have recommended thriveworks to a friend who got started and has had positive feedback as well. I am so grateful for every session. I've learned a lot about myself and feel so encouraged to continue to become a better version of myself.
