Couples Therapy
There is a range of ways couples can benefit from therapy and at Therapy1st I believe the most beneficial is understanding who you are as autonomous people then understanding who you are as a couple.
In order for you to understand yourself you need to understand your attachment style. This helps you identify your behaviour patterns, the patterns of those around you and that is where your therapy would begin.
In a world where saying no to others in order to put your own needs first is considered selfish, it's hardly surprising you become resentful and overwhelmed when you co-inhabit a space with someone who only seems to be looking out for themselves, or, is so over protective it becomes stifling!
Once you get to know why you view the world the way you do and why others view you the way they do your life becomes so much easier. You begin recognising the behaviours of others as well as yourself as survival strategies. This recognition is poweful stuff as it allows you to decipher what is personal and what is unintentional.
Expressing and choosing what you truly want as an autonomous person and as a couple becomes easier the more conscious you become of the others interpretation of the situation you are in.
So whether you're facing communication issues, trust issues, or other challenges, your therapy sessions together can help you and your partner achieve a deeper understanding and connection.
Having lived through some of the most difficult relationships and denied myself happiness within them I am passionate about promoting autonomy and wellbeing and providing the tools for healthy relationships. Reach out and start your journey towards a more fulfilling partnership and don't worry, if we identify an issue relating to trauma as well as the normal attachment patterns we are all subject to at one time or another, I can offer Havening Techniques® to deal with anything that is unresolved and we can quickly move on.
