What if my partner doesn’t want to go to couples therapy?
What happens when only one member of a relationship wants to go to couples therapy? Here are several steps that can be taken.
Marriage Counseling vs. Couples Counseling: Is there any difference?
Marriage counseling and couples counseling are closely related therapeutic approaches aimed at addressing relationship issues. They do, however, differ in their scope, goals, and methods.
Is there a difference between Couples Counseling and Couples Therapy?
The terms couples counseling and couples therapy tend to be used interchangeably. They are both used to improve romantic relationships, yet there are distinct differences between their objectives, approaches and therapeutic methods.
Couples Counseling: Is it more effective than Individual Therapy?
Both couples counseling and individual therapy are indispensable when it comes to mental health support. If the primary goal at hand is to build up and strengthen a relationship, couples counseling can be a much more effective use of energy, time, and money.
When should a couple seek therapy?
Couples therapy can be a valuable resource for a relationship. Recognizing when to start this process is crucial for furthering a healthy partnership.
What is the role of a couples therapist?
The role of a couples therapist is an essential one. The couples therapist acts as trained guide as couples navigate the complex landscape of their relationships.
What should I know about couples counseling?
Couples counseling can help improve the health and longevity of a relationship. During counseling, couples engage in therapy sessions and work with a trained therapist to address and resolve unproductive issues within their relationship.

11 Lessons from Telehealth
Telehealth has reminded me that when I let go of the things I fear losing, I allow them to transform themselves and me. In this context, I am letting go of my closely held model of therapy and my self-protective need to feel good at it.
