Great Couples Counseling in Richmond Heights, MO. Therapy to heal relationships.

When you enter a committed relationship, the assumption is that you’re supposed to know how to “do” relationships. But it’s not always that easy; we don’t learn relationships in school.

Lastly, I'll focus on assisting you in building a firm foundation for lasting intimacy that can continue for years after therapy has concluded.

Couples Therapy is often seen as different from psychotherapy, because a relationship is the focus of attention instead of one individual diagnosed with a specific psychological problem. Couples Therapy focuses on the problems existing in the relationship between two people, but these relationship problems always involve individual symptoms and problems, as well as the relationship conflicts.

What are the most common couples' issues? If you are thinking "communication, conflict, sex, money, child rearing" you are correct. However, most therapists will go after the symptom on each side of the couple fence thinking that the way to effective change is by getting each party to "work" on their respective "issue". Many times the parties don’t agree but comply. Imagine if you could align the unconscious brains of a couple and stop the "working on your issues" part that has become so popular in therapy settings?

Because Tyler's specialty is sexual addiction and affair recovery, couple work is an important aspect of therapy. Tyler has worked with many couples on communication issues, conflict resolution, rebuilding love and trust where it has been broken, and working through other family discord that may arise in families from time to time. Tyler also does premarital counseling.

Infinite reasons manifest themselves to the advantages of couples therapy. Frequently at times, a critical situation (such as a loss or affair) may start a phase of complexity in the connection. Some couples encounter a progressive shift over time and try to shift back to a closer relationship. Couples can also implement therapy as a preventative measure, understanding useful communication techniques and relationship framework principles to prevent complications down the road. Amy works with couples to improve their connection, reduce ambivalence and promote strong habits to maintain improvement over time.
