It is true that couples, over the course of their relationship, can go through crises or moments that may be difficult to overcome. That is why it is advisable to see a specialist in couples therapy. If not resolved properly, these could entrench the way the relationship works, often suffering from a lack of communication, problems of understanding, arguments, lack of desire, etc. It is often routine and a lack of care in the couple's relationship that can end up deteriorating and wearing down this union, almost without noticing it. A deterioration in the relationship can generate contradictory feelings and intense distress in both members of the couple, causing a series of relational dysfunctions that can become toxic for the health of the couple: indifference, manipulation, distrust, possessive appropriation, jealousy, fear, insecurity, the instrumentalisation of the other,… Many couples cannot understand how they used to fit together perfectly and now feel like two strangers under the same roof. In this situation, communication in the couple's relationship becomes a fundamental aspect that must be cared for in every sense so that the relationship can be sustained in a healthy way. When the couple, despite their efforts, cannot solve their problems, couples therapy offers us the best solution for resolving their difficulties.
What does couples therapy consist of?
The couples psychologist will analyse the personality traits of each member of the couple, as well as the relational dysfunctions detected within it. In couples therapy we treat the relationship from a positive and constructive approach, understanding each of the realities that make up the couple. Carefully, we analyse all those relational aspects that prevent the couple from developing effectively, seeking points of meeting and union that allow us to strengthen their own resources. In addition, through communication and conflict resolution techniques, therapy also offers the opportunity to create a safe context for the relationship, fostering trust, commitment and respect between both members of the couple.
