How to Communicate More Effectively as a Couple
Updated: Feb 24
Struggling With Communicating as a Couple? You are not alone!
Communication is key to a great relationship.. how many times have you heard this? But you also know by now that it’s easier said than done. In fact, a study revealed that 67.5% of marriages ended primarily because of communication problems.
Similar to most things in life, relationships come with ups and downs. Sometimes we need support to help navigate these fluctuations, but who do we turn to when our partner is as lost as we are? As it does for individuals, therapy can help couples navigate their lives.
Just as we believe no two people are the same, we believe no two couples are the same, and therefore each couple requires unique support. At The Holding Space, we welcome couples into a warm and accepting environment where we offer a tailored, individualized approach to their specific needs. Whether you and your partner are dealing with life transitions, communication difficulties, sex and intimacy issues, parenting struggles, all of the above, or none of the above, speaking with a therapist could be the first step to making positive change.
This is not to say that couples therapy is a wholly positive experience; it can be difficult, confusing, and, at times, heartbreaking. However, it can also lead to understanding, growth, and healing for the couple as a whole, as well as for its individual members. If you’ve been thinking about getting started with couples therapy, reach out to The Holding Space today!
