Couple counseling

Couple counseling

I help you with targeted relationship work to redesign your relationship.

Why a couple consultation?

There are phases in a partnership in which
  • the communication and/or the desire are missing,
  • the proximity is missing or 
  • recurring conflicts emerge and are seemingly insoluble.
Often couples do not notice until very late when contact with each other is lost. In everyday life, one suppresses the knowledge for a long time and at some point stands in front of an insurmountable wall.

Therefore, in certain cases a preventive couple counselling is useful, a kind of "couple hygiene", so that there is no loss of communication or proximity to each other in the first place.

I am often approached with topics like these:
    • Communication problems
    • Being parents - staying a couple
    • different understanding of relationship.
    One of the partners usually suffers more obviously from the established relationship and expresses his dissatisfaction. It is not uncommon for couples to lose themselves in mutual reproaches and incomprehension. The different goals and needs seem irreconcilable and frustration and despair come to the fore.

    All this can be the beginning of the end of a couple's relationship or the chance for clarification and a new beginning.
    Together we look for new solutions and new ways out of the crisis.

    Goals of a couple therapy

    Through targeted relationship work in a couple therapy/couple counselling you can clarify many things and redesign your relationship.

    Even if it costs a lot of courage, effort and strength in the beginning, many couples have experienced couple therapy as an important step towards a happy future. Sometimes in this process old injuries have to be worked on and common perspectives have to be sought.

    Depending on the concerns and course of the process, it can be useful to supplement the couple's discussions with individual appointments, because sometimes it is necessary to answer the questions about "Who am I?" and "What do I want?".

    Couple therapy offers you help, among other things, if
    •  your everyday life is determined by disputes and conflicts
    •  speechlessness and lack of feeling prevails (loneliness)
    •  your communication is disturbed
    •  you feel constricted or controlled (jealousy)
    •  you feel rejected or betrayed (cheating)
    •  you are thinking about a separation/divorce
    • Sexuality and physical closeness hardly take place anymore (lust)
    • anxiety about commitment is an issue
    • external circumstances cause problems in your relationship, e.g. unemployment, illness, lack of time
    • cultural differences create tensions between you
    • your relationship and love should become more intense again
