Couples Therapy: Is it Right For You?

By 
Bryce Warnes

The aim of couples counselling is to strengthen and improve the relationship between two people. Some couples seek out a therapist because there’s conflict in their relationship, and they’ve reached an impasse they believe therapy may resolve. Others do so because ongoing counselling makes their relationship deeper, closer, or more stable. There are as many reasons to attend couples counselling as there are to attend individual counselling.

By 
Bryce Warnes
