Description

This episode discusses the importance of couple's therapy, dispels common myths like "your relationship has to be really struggling to choose couples therapy," and discusses how to broach the topic with your partner and what to do if they are reluctant. I will also review the different types of couples therapy, from the Gottman method to EFT to sex therapy and provide various resources to get started.
