Deep dives
Couples struggle to understand each other
Many couples lack true understanding of each other, causing issues in their relationships. This lack of understanding can be detrimental, and if the wrong partner is chosen, it can be difficult to repair the damage. It is common for couples to seek therapy to resolve these issues, but it is also important to start with the right partner from the beginning.
Therapists seeking therapy themselves
Even therapists need therapy, as there are certain things they cannot do on their own. They cannot perform surgery on themselves, sail a 50-foot yacht alone, or do therapy on themselves. A couple of therapists realized this and sought therapy to address their own relationship issues, acknowledging that therapists are human beings who also struggle in their personal lives.
The importance of effective communication in therapy
In a therapy session with two therapists, the importance of effective communication and open dialogue becomes evident. The therapists encouraged the couple to express their feelings and thoughts openly, allowing for deeper understanding and exploration of their issues. The therapists emphasized the need for the couple to name and address the specific problem they were facing in order to make progress in their therapy.
