Of the various marriage and couple therapies and models I have studied, I gravitate to the behavioral and emotion-centered approaches namely: Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy (EFT). In terms of the behavioral approaches, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and its “spin-offs” provide a wealth of applicability and contextual viability. In addition, I am attracted to this approach as a practitioner due to its high level of empirical validation.
Relationships are one of the hardest thing we have to deal with in life. We have to build a life together with someone else with their own set of values, beliefs and character defects. We each bring or own challenges and past family experiences. Though therapy you will learn to communicate more effectively, learn to respect each other even during conflict. Make sure to reach out to a therapist before things get too bad. Sometimes people reach out to therapy way too late and forget that receiving help early in the process can save your relationship!
