Couples therapy

Some Topics

  • Revitalising sexuality, pleasure and joy
  • Intercultural relationships (culture, expectations, language, dynamics)
  • Communication problems (misunderstandings, concealment)
  • Opening or closing a relationship (romantic and/or sexual)
  • Attachment and autonomy in the relationship
  • Life projects (real estate planning, marriage, parenthood, opening a business)
  • Dealing with hurtful experiences (cheating, separation or divorce, loss, mistrust)
  • Empathy and understanding (for myself and for my partner)
  • Violence or aggressiveness

How does it work?

1) At the beginning I want to get to know you; your wishes, your concerns and what you believe is happening in your relationship

2) At the end of the second session I will tell you the outcome of my assessment. This includes an explanatory model of your situation

3) I define with you three main goals and a plan to achieve them. We will adapt this during the treatment to best fit your needs

4) At the end of treatment, we summarise what we have learned and decide if you feel ready to end our work together or if you need further support

Conditions
