If you find one of the above statements resonates with you, then therapy can be the vehicle that you use to identify solutions. When we take the time to discover each other’s emotional needs we can also learn how to empathize and understand our partner on a deeper level. As our roles shift and we take on various life transitions (caring for older relatives, changing careers, etc.), with therapy we can adapt to these transitions with flexibility. This ensures that the relationship grows alongside you as opposed to behind you.
At each stage of a relationship, we have an opportunity to develop healthy conflict-resolution skills. Fighting fair with our partner allows us to get to the root cause of the issue while maintaining a strong emotional connection. Therapy can be the glue to help strengthen your bond as a couple, because learning and using proactive communication and understanding, leads to a happier pair.
Regardless of the life transition; be it a new career, moving your home or selling a home, chronic health issues or newly diagnosed health concerns, financial troubles, parenthood, empty nest syndrome or retirement, caregiving or loss of loved ones – with the skills that therapy provides, most couples can weather life transitions with dignity and strength. If you are able to build a strong alliance with one of our therapists, there is an ability to dive deep within the relationship and address core concerns that may have been present since the beginning. Building trust with a therapist, as a couple, takes hard work but can pay off in the long-term.
