Couples Therapy - Boston
If you and your partner are arguing more, avoiding each other, or often feeling tense when you're together, it may be time to seek couples therapy. Boston is fortunate to have a large number of effective counselors. Another reason you and your partner may decide to seek couples therapy is to strengthen your relationship and gain a better understanding of each other. Marriage counselors also work with couples who plan to be married. This is called premarital counseling.
Boston - Marriage Counseling
What is the difference between a couples counselor and a marriage counselor?
The terms couples counseling and marriage counseling can be used interchangeably. Most therapists who provide this form of therapy will work to help you and your partner meet your goals, whether you want to stay together or to separate amicably. However, some therapists, called marriage-friendly therapists, support the idea of marriage and encourage partners to stay together and work through their differences.
Most couples who seek couples counseling report that they would like to learn to communicate more effectively with each other. Other common concerns that couples bring to couples counseling in Boston include problems related to parenting, infidelity, finances, partners' families, blended families, substance abuse, sexual difficulties, cultural differences, infertility, retirement, and same-sex issues.
