It is common for at least one of the parties to be highly ambivalent about seeking cohabitation therapy. Whether couple therapy can help just you is strictly a only way to find out.
Since couples therapy has been proven to help so many couples, it makes sense to give it a try. Ambivalence to the process is something we can discuss openly in the first hour. You quickly get a sense of whether this could be something to proceed with.
Clarify goals
In couples therapy, we start by clarifying goals and visions for the relationship. Secondly, to take a common position on the process.
2. Mapping of dynamics
Furthermore, there is a mapping of which dynamics get in the way of the good contact before we work out some strategies to change the stuck patterns.
3. Break the automation
The next step is to break down the automatics we typically see where couples end up in self-reinforcing circles. Starting to recognize and break this automaticity often gives an immediate boost.
4. Deeper understanding
After a while, as we manage to change the worn out record that has been playing, there often comes a phase where you can gain a deeper understanding of each other.
5. Marriage counseling
Couples therapy at its best makes it possible to not only find each other again but maybe even find each other again. This is why marriage counseling can be so valuable.
What do you get out of couples therapy?
For some, it does not take much to find a new course. Some couples just need a little advice from a couples therapist. For others, more fundamental changes are required. The bigger the upside can be - finding back to each other has an infinite value.
How much you will get out of cohabitation therapy depends a lot on the collaboration we are able to establish. You will quickly find out if there is something for you.
There are so many normal psychological traps for couples to fall into. Life is sometimes difficult, and so is the relationship.
Many people who seek couples therapy do so a little late, after the problems have developed into fairly cemented patterns. You can often end up blaming a lot of what is difficult on your partner. Or one gets stuck in patterns to relate to each other that act mutually reinforcing, in negative spirals.
A crisis in the relationship is often the breaking point needed to start a constructive process with cohabitation problems that have often simmered for a long time. It is not uncommon for such crises to occur in connection with transitional phases, when one party considers a break-up of cohabitation, or through infidelity.
After infidelity is about how to overcome infidelity, find forgiveness and regain trust after infidelity. This often requires a lot from both parties. When thinking about a break-up or divorce, it is often a challenge that one party has come much further in the process than the other.
It has often built up a distance over time. Often new things can happen when both parties are updated on the inner processes of the other. In the many transitional phases of life, the set patterns in the relationship are often challenged. This can be utilized in a positive way. Crises and change are often unpleasant, but they also represent a great opportunity for growth and development.
We will do our utmost therapists to assist you in using the current crisis as constructively as possible. In some cases, it is about helping the parties through a breach in the most orderly way possible.
