Understanding and Healing Relationships
One of the most significant issues couples face is the tendency to blame each other, which ultimately hinders communication and understanding. Effective communication is essential for the healing of relationships, as couples often approach therapy feeling misunderstood and distant from each other. The focus should be on fostering curiosity and empathy towards one another, as this can lead to deeper connections and greater appreciation of each other's perspectives. Techniques such as asking open-ended questions about feelings and desires can help couples navigate their differences and strengthen their bond.
