If you are in a committed relationship or marriage and find that you and your partner are arguing often, can’t trust each other, or feel emotionally disconnected from each other, but still have love for each other and a desire to stay together, then couples therapy may be right for you. While you may seek to improve your relationship/marriage at any time, I recommend starting couples counseling before the issues you are experiencing in your relationship become too difficult or reach a breaking point. The best time to work towards the longevity of your relationship is now.

It’s true that in long-term and committed relationships, bumps along the way are expected. Relationships can naturally move into new phases, but this doesn’t mean the relationship is over. Rather, it can provide a chance to grow as a couple and elevate the quality of your relationship. Learning more about each other can make your relationship deeper and more fulfilling than before.
