Couples therapy is the place for those of you who want help to take better care of your relationship with each other, whether you’re in a crisis, want to prevent the difficult or are somewhere in between. Our couples therapists and couples coaches can support you in recognizing both negative patterns and resources that you may have become blind to, while guiding you towards deeper conversations and new ways to approach your challenges. We always set aside one and a half sessions for couples counselling, as it’s important to ensure a space where you both feel heard.
We draw on professional knowledge about communication, conflicts and the typical patterns that couples get trapped in, and are therefore also equipped to take leadership in the conversation and offer ideas for change.
Being in a relationship often comes with a rush of happiness and meaningfulness. You can get the feeling of being whole, of being fully understood. It often creates a sense of connection on a deep, deep level.
For many, this is what we ultimately strive for, for ourselves.
But it can also drain our energy so that we can’t stand our partner or ourselves. Filling us with difficult emotions we have no idea what to do with. We can feel completely abandoned and left to our own devices to the point where nothing matters.
When we enter into close relationships, especially as partners, our early patterns, dynamics and survival strategies are activated to a degree similar to what we experienced as children in relation to our parents. This can create huge frustration in our relationship with our partner and ourselves.
As rewarding as it can feel to be in a relationship, sharing each other in such a way can feel (and later become) all-consuming. Nurturing a happy and healthy relationship takes daily work.
The most significant factor for relationship development is that both parties agree to work on it.
Sometimes you can do the work yourself, and sometimes you get to the point where you want help to move forward.
Couples counselling and couples coaching at Parterapi København can be meaningful if you want to maintain an already well-functioning relationship, but perhaps also find it difficult to be together in the way you each want. Or if you feel challenged by the same repetitive patterns in your interactions.
Many people also find it meaningful to go to couples counselling when they want to end a relationship in a proper way.
Here you can find important insights and great understanding and care for your partner and not least yourself.
