“Speak in such a way that others love to listen to you. Listen in such a way that others love to speak to you.” Dale Carnegie

Good communication helps you express your thoughts, feelings, needs, and desires to one another. This creates mutual understanding and helps you emotionally bond through shared experiences.

One of the barriers to good communication is the lack of a shared language. Partners may have years of history together, not realizing the meaning they attach to their experiences is different from the other’s. At times, they may sense the differences, and wonder how to bridge the gap in perspective and background.

Your couple’s therapist will give you practical tools and help you:

Your therapy may include conflict resolution, trust building, emotional connection, clarifying expectations, increased empathy and understanding, strengthening bonds, preventing resentment, adapting to change, crucial conversations, mutual growth, values work, and sharing joy and happiness.
