Couples therapy is a form of therapy that helps partners improve their relationship. It can also be referred to as relationship counseling or marriage therapy. Therapy St. Albert, Psychotherapy St. Albert, Therapist St. Albert
Both partners will attend sessions together, where they can discuss current issues in the relationship and work on resolving conflicts or struggles with the help of our trained therapists.
The goal is to help couples better communicate with each other, and to develop healthier, more effective ways of dealing with problems in the relationship.
The new skills you learn from attending therapy sessions will not only you build a stronger, healthier, and fulfilling relationship, but your individual happiness and satisfaction will grow as well.
One of the biggest benefits you will take away from couples therapy is how you can communicate more effectively with your partner. We tend to speak more than we listen, which can often leave partners feeling unheard and frustrated. You will learn skills such as active listening, how to properly express both your needs & feelings, and how to resolve conflict in a healthy and productive way.
With better communication and listening skills, you will naturally gain a better understanding of your partner and ability to empathize with them. You will gain a deeper appreciation for their perspective and feelings, and learn to see situations from their point of view.
When you combine benefits such as improved communication, understanding, and empathy - with the ability to work on these in a safe and supportive environment like our clinic, you will start to build the foundation for a strong and secure relationship.
Our therapists will provide you the tools to become more resilient as partners, develop a deeper bond, and lead a happier more fulfilling life both in your relationship and as an individual.
We approach couples therapy from an Emotionally Focused and Attachment-Based approach. We also use the Gottman method, which has been proven to increase marital communication, intimacy, and satisfaction. Using a conjunction of these methods, each practice is custom built to fit needs and goals of your specific relationship.
