Couples Counseling
Why Do Couples Attend Therapy?
Couples attend therapy because:
- They are repeating negative cycles of criticism and withdrawal. The more one partner pushes; the more the other seems to pull away.
- Deep worries about being abandoned or controlled are pulling them apart.
- Many couples and partnerships are fighting about sex.
- Partners are wanting to explore alternative relationship styles like polyamory, consensual non monogamy, or other dynamics.
We know it can be difficult to admit the need for help in your partnership. Unfortunately, this anxiety often keeps partnerships avoiding for far too long before getting the help they deserve. Couples therapy can reconnect you to the love and partnership you crave!
