Move Towards Your Best Relationship with Couples Counseling in Chicago

Relationships are hard. It gets complicated trying to navigate intimacy, sex and conflict, plus all of the usual day-to-day stuff. Growing up in different homes with different families and rules can lead to unspoken assumptions that sabotage happiness. A thoughtful, nonjudgmental therapist can help you to reconnect, communicate your needs to each other, restore your relationship goals, and find a way to a better future.

Relationship Counseling at Best Therapies

EXPERT HELP FOR YOUR RELATIONSHIP

Our professional team of licensed doctors helps you clear the air, opens the doorway to communication, and sets skills in place that’ll continue to benefit your romantic or family bond long after relationship therapy.

WHEN TO REACH OUT FOR RELATIONSHIP THERAPY

As disagreements become more frequent, communication and transparency can lessen and build a barrier between a couple. This barrier leaves things unsaid, and without the proper outlet, the tension and miscommunication could lead to a breakup, separation or divorce.

That’s why reaching out to a relationship or marriage therapist upon noticing concerns and miscommunication in your love life is key to restabilizing your physical and emotional partnership and setting you on the path to a more intimate and rewarding connection.

COMMON RELATIONSHIP ADVICE FOR COUPLES

Couples counseling can happen at any relationship stage, whether premarital or cohabitating, during a stressful engagement, or after years of marriage. Many seek professional relationship advice for couples as a preventative method to help improve communication and empathy between partners.

Whatever the cause or reason, relationship counseling teaches skills that sustain the spark and build lasting mental and emotional connections. Benefits of couples counseling include:

  • Examining the positives in the relationship, such as irreplaceable memories, outstanding qualities in one another, and traits that improve emotional growth.
  • Acknowledging negative or unproductive behavior that leads to constant fights and finding alternative means that’ll create positive changes.
  • Rekindling the spark by taking the time to infuse romance, thoughtfulness, care and support back into the relationship.

Taking positive steps toward a brighter future with your significant other leads to a lifetime of understanding and selfless love. That’s why we don’t stop at couples counseling. We recommend relationship-building and enlightening couples therapy books by numerous best-selling authors, including The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work by John M. Gottman, Ph.D., and Nan Silver.
