Working with a therapist can help provide insight, support, and new strategies for all types of life challenges. Therapy can help address ongoing relationship challenges and teach you how to better do life together.
Therapy is right for couples who are interested in getting the most out of life by taking responsibility, creating greater self-awareness, and working towards change in their lives.
At Magnolia Counseling & Wellness, we follow the Gottman Method as we work with you to address your areas of concern and help you appreciate your relationship's strengths and to gently navigate through its vulnerabilities.
What is couples counseling like?
What is couples counseling like?
Our practice follows the Gottman Method as we work with you to address your areas of concern. Early in the assessment phase, you will be given some written materials to complete that will help us better understand your relationship. In the first sessions we will talk about the history of your relationship, areas of concern, and goals for treatment. In the next session, I will meet with you individually to learn each of your personal histories and to give each of you an opportunity to share thoughts, feelings, and perceptions. In the final session of assessment, I will share with you my recommendations for treatment and work to define mutually agreed upon goals for your therapy.
Most of the work will involve sessions where you will be seen together as a couple. However, there may be times when individual sessions are recommended. I may also give you exercises to practice between sessions. Gottman Method Couples Therapy consists of mostly 90-minute conjoint therapy sessions with you and your partner. Additionally, you will each participate in one individual session lasting 45-60 minutes.
