How does relationship therapy work?

 

Understandably, people often want to know what the therapeutic process involves and the skills that will be learned along the way.  We start with understanding what state the relationship is in, and then find a pathway to recovery (if that is desirable for both parties).

 

Identifying pattens and unhealthy behaviours is key to understanding what could improve. Often, emotional regulation and self-soothing needs to take place so that each person can approach the situation a little more mindfully. Focusing on one's owns needs and then being able to articulate these is important.

 

Building a robust system for friendship and appreciation is key to laying the groundwork for a positive, enduring relationship that will stand the test of time. And even when this is working and in place, an alertness to one's tone and language in communication is key to maintaining good relationships.

 

The good news is that all this realistic and achievable with a reasonable level of commitment.

Transforming habits

Though each relationship is unique, unhealthy relationships tend to show the same patterns of unproductive behaviour. In the presence of these unhealthy behaviours, a relationship cannot prosper or fulfil its potential. Feelings of anger, resentment, upset or hurt can cloud everything else.

 

Read about 11 telltale signs you may need couples therapy here.

Fortunately, these patterns can be observed and modified with the help of a skilled counsellor. Think of these behaviours as ingrained habits that create an unproductive emotional climate. But with the right intentions and commitment, these habits can be transformed allowing much greater positivity to surface.

A specialist marriage and couples counsellor will help you unravel what is happening in real-time, make skilful interventions, and enable self-reflection. It can be a huge relief to know that happier times are within reach.
