Couples Therapy (Insurance Based)

Service Description

Couples Therapy: Couples therapy, also known as couples counseling or marital therapy, is a type of psychotherapy that focuses on helping couples of all types explore, recognize, and resolve conflicts in an effort to improve their relationships and interactions. Conducted by a trained therapist, typically a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), it provides a safe and neutral space for both partners to express their thoughts, feelings, and concerns. Methods and Approaches: Couples therapy may employ various therapeutic approaches, depending on the therapist's training and the couple's specific issues, including: *Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): Focuses on developing and strengthening the emotional bond between partners by addressing attachment issues. *Gottman Method: Utilizes specific interventions to improve respect, affection, and closeness, remove barriers that create a feeling of stagnancy, and create a heightened sense of empathy and understanding within the relationship. *Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps couples identify and challenge negative patterns of thought and behavior that are affecting their relationship. *Narrative Therapy: Encourages couples to narrate their relationship issues from a detached perspective, which can help in identifying solutions. Process: Couples therapy sessions typically involve both partners, though individual sessions may also be part of the therapy process. During these sessions, the therapist will work with the couple to identify specific issues within the relationship, with the aim of understanding the perspectives of both partners. Through guided discussion and exercises, couples can learn new ways to support and relate to each other.
