What is couples/marriage counseling?

 Couples/marriage counseling, also called couples therapy, helps couples — married or not — understand and resolve conflicts and improve their relationship.

 Counseling gives couples the tools to communicate better, negotiate differences, problem solve and even argue in a healthier way.

 Couples/marriage counseling is often short term. You may need only a few sessions to help you weather a crisis.

 Or you may need counseling for several months, particularly if your relationship has greatly deteriorated.

 As with individual psychotherapy, you typically see a couples/marriage counselor once a week.

 Couples/marriage counseling can help you rebuil your relationship and help you understand your relationship better and make well-thought-out decisions.
