HOW DO NATURAL COUPLES COUNSELING AND COUPLES THERAPY ACTUALLY WORK?

1)  THEY BRING GREATER AWARENESS AND NEW WAYS:

The natural approaches of couples counseling and marital therapy, pre-marital counseling, marriage counseling and family therapy include becoming aware of and then learning how to give up old, automatic and destructive viewpoints and substitute creative and positive ways of behaving and communicating.

One of the main aims of a natural and holistic psychotherapist, couples counselor, marriage counselor, sex therapist or family therapist is to help each person achieve inner emotional balance as well as balance in one's interactions with others.

NEW WAYS OF RELATING

In natural therapy, most couples and families with relationship problems - even the most severe and distressing - learn how to make actual positive changes in their interactions, how to actually develop new ways of relating to each other: 

They learn why it is always important to be both honest and kind to each other!

And in order to be able to achieve such interaction, they learn how to consistently:

 Communicate clearly, calmly and honestly

and

Regularly (i.e. 24/7) be loving and be kind to each other!

2)  NATURAL COUPLES THERAPY ALSO INCLUDES RESOLUTION OF PERSONAL ISSUES:

Emotionally charged, personal issues that may interfere with good interactions can also be explored through individual, personal psychotherapy sessions, in addition to the joint couples or family sessions.  For such individual therapy sessions please click here.

In natural and holistic couples therapy or pre-marital counseling each person learns how to develop new perspectives and enhance constructive styles of living with each other. 

In this very positive and practical treatment of relationship problems each person learns how to maintain her or his individuality while moving from the concept of just "I" to the new concept of "We."

Couples start to give up, often constant, fighting and arguing and learn how to substitute calm communication and productive problem solving.

Each learns how to take the perspective of the other and enhance the capacity to make joint, practical decisions that consider and respect one's own desires as well as the desires of the other.

And also, on matters that concern both partners, unilateral decisions are abandoned as rational, creative and integrative joint decision-making becomes the regular way.

3)  THE FOCUS IS ON THE PRESENT AND ON THE ABSENCE OF BLAME:

In natural holistic therapy couples find out - often, for the first time - how liberating it is to give up regret, blame and emotional outbursts.

They learn how to become truly honest and intimate with each other:  how to relate to each other lovingly and calmly in the here and now: 

Without emotional regrets over a past that cannot be changed, worry about a future that is always unknown, or adherence to an ideal that is unrealistic.

They learn to give up perfectionism and actually not to worry at all when they make mistakes.

In fact, they start to discover the benefits of learning from mistakes, rather than becoming upset by mistakes.

And most important, they learn to welcome awareness of mistakes and faults in oneself or one's partner, since such awareness is always an opportunity for constructive change and growth.

By engaging in this very positive treatment of their relationship they learn how to focus on and actually practice positive and mutually satisfying actions in the present.

They practice stopping three habits that have caused them so much suffering: regret, worry and blame of self or others.

As a result of natural therapy's emphasis on not expecting perfection in themselves or their partner, as well as on being loving and empathic in the present, they discover how they can actually attain and maintain a loving, intimate, and erotically enriching and exciting relationship with each other.
