A. Couples sessions are a great way to improve and build a healthy relationship with your partner. Your therapist will likely want to meet with each person in the relationship individually to establish trust and a connection with each person, as well as to understand the situation from each person’s point of view. Following this, the therapist will bring both partners together to talk about the problems in the relationship as a group. The therapist will encourage you to talk with your partner in the session to practice new ways of expressing yourself as well as helping you to problem solve the issues driving the conflict in your relationship. The therapist will likely offer suggestions for you and your partner to role play during the session as well as exercises to try with them at home.
