Who Can Benefit from Marriage Counseling?
There is no such thing as a cookie-cutter marriage or relationship. Every couple is different, and what works for one partnership may not work for another. Some couples do everything together. Others may spend most of their time apart, even sleeping in separate bedrooms, but they still find strength in each other’s love and intermittent companionship. And then there are couples who might face a very particular set of challenges and want a specialized therapist to help them. These include:
- LGBTQ couples
- Interracial couples
- Black couples
- Spouses with a significant age difference
- Long-distance couples
- Parents of special needs children
- Engaged couples
- Christian couples
Online and In-Person Counseling Options
Marriage counseling at Thriveworks in Minneapolis, MN offers convenient online therapy by video as well as in-person sessions. Choose which works best for you and your partner — in addition, work with your partner to find the right marriage or couples therapist for you.
Choosing a Marriage Counselor Together
Sometimes one spouse advocates for counseling while the other spouse drags their feet. But it can help if both partners are involved in the process of choosing a marriage therapist. Then the more reluctant spouse can feel invested in the process and have a greater sense of buy-in.
Before you approach the Thriveworks office in Minneapolis, MN to schedule a session, talk to your partner about what you’re looking for and what your concerns might be. If privacy is your husband’s biggest concern, then consider talking to him about online marriage counseling. If clinical credentials and a long success record are your biggest criteria, then propose a couples therapist with extensive training and experience. The important thing is that you agree on what you want. Though if you disagree, that might be good material to explore in your first couples counseling session!
Do I Need Relationship Counseling?
Any couple could find benefits in couples therapy — and seeking relationship help is not a sign that your relationship is on the rocks. In fact, it’s a sign of a healthy, committed relationship when you’re thinking about finding a marriage counselor to help overcome communication roadblocks and other common couples issues. Marriage therapists can help strengthen your romantic bond.
You may begin noticing one or a few of the frequent signs that you and your spouse could benefit from marriage counseling:
- Communication has deteriorated to the point where you’re not talking to each other.
- Communication always seems to be negative.
- You’re keeping secrets from each other.
- You’re having an affair or considering being unfaithful.
- You seem to have the same exact argument over and over.
