Couples therapy and marriage counseling, also known as relationship counseling, helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy and marriage counseling include:
The types of therapy used in couples and marriage counseling include:
At Thriveworks, Couples/marriage therapy is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples.
The Gottman Method of couples therapy is a research-supported approach designed to enhance relationships by bolstering the bond between partners, resolving conflicts, and fostering shared meaning in their relationship through comprehensive assessments and tailored interventions that improve communication, trust, and the overall health of the partnership.
If you’re facing persistent relationship problems, communication breakdowns, or unresolved conflicts that are impacting your emotional well-being and happiness, Couples/marriage therapy may be beneficial for you.
While marriage and couple’s counseling is typically recommended for couples who are experiencing persistent or severe relationship issues, any relationship can benefit from attending these sessions.
Marriage and couples counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend marriage and couples counseling for 12 weeks. However, couples & marriage counseling may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.
Poor communication is one of the most common issues in many relationships, including romantic ones. Without effective communication, your relationship may not last. Working with a couples therapist can assist in improving communication and address your other concerns in a healthy and productive manner. Couples therapy or marriage counseling can give you the tools to work through problems together long term.
At Thriveworks Counseling in Lexington, KY, our licensed marriage and family therapists are here to support you and help you address relationship dilemmas both big and small. If you’d like to see how couples therapy can improve your relationship, call our office to schedule an appointment today.
Many people consider couples counseling a last resort for a relationship that’s seemingly beyond repair, but licensed marriage and family therapists will tell you otherwise. You can benefit from couples therapy or marriage counseling for many reasons beyond repairing a deteriorating partnership.
Couples therapy sessions with a mental health professional can serve as an opportunity to improve your relationship and further understand the person you love. Here are some subjects you can discuss with a couples therapist:
Life will frequently send challenges your way. Sometimes, relationship issues are purely circumstantial. Other times, relationship issues persist from past traumas, infidelity, and unresolved conflicts.
In couples counseling, a licensed professional will take the time to learn about your backgrounds and perspectives, along with your individual relationship concerns. Your therapist or counselor will treat you as a couple and as individuals and provide tools to address and resolve withstanding issues.
Working with a couples counselor may yield the following benefits:
Relationship issues are not always indicative of a mismatched partnership. Sometimes they’re a reminder that you’re both human – we all go through changes and make mistakes sometimes.
If you and your partner are both open to participating in couples counseling, consider working with one of our mental health professionals. Couples therapy and marriage counseling can help you repair, rebuild, or improve your relationship at any stage.
Your relationship and your feelings matter and our providers will work to ensure you both feel understood, respected, and heard. When you’re ready to take the next step in improving your relationship, call Thriveworks in Lexington, KY to connect with an experienced couples therapist. We offer evening and weekend sessions and same-week appointments, accept most major insurances, and offer additional benefits to our clients.
