Relationships can get to the point where there seem to be endless difficulties, stress, and dissatisfaction putting a strain on our emotional and physical health. Some common relationship issues are:

• Sexual difficulties and dysfunction

• Feelings of inadequacy

• Secretive behaviors

• Hurt feelings and withdrawal from connections

• Fear of commitment or premarital jitters

• Anxiety or depression

• Arguments or constant disagreements

• General unhappiness with your partner

Just as you would with any other important part of your life, your relationships need continual attention. When you are considering couples counseling you have gotten to the point that you cannot simply leave things to work themselves out or believe that “love must be enough” to get you through rough patches.

 
 

Couples Relationship Psychologists and Counselors Near You | Sex Therapy Westfield

Many of our clients come to us after dealing with unhappy relationship stresses for a prolonged time. Often, couples therapy is thought of only as a last resort to save a failing relationship, but the truth is, therapy is much more effective when incorporated as part of a general health routine for couples. So many of us don’t have a solid understanding of how to maintain a healthy, happy relationship with others – physical, emotional, or otherwise – simply because we have not been taught about relationships. Our only example for most of us has been our parents...

We frequently share our daily activities and successes with others – especially in the day of social media – yet we seldomly discuss the work, understanding, and personal growth that goes on behind the scenes that lead to our successes. As with every other aspect of our lives, maintaining a successful, happy relationship takes dedication to its health.
