Problems and disagreements in the couple can occur for a variety of reasons, including lack of dialogue, family pressure, sexual dysfunction, chronic illness, intimacy problems, lack of sexual interest, loss of trust and unfaithfulness, separation, problems with children, and professional problems, among others.
How can couples therapy help?
Couples therapy allows the exploration and reflection of the love life, the expectations of both partners and the couple’s problems, in a confidential and neutral environment. The exploration facilitates conscious decision making regarding the life of the couple and each individual, overcoming disagreements and creating opportunities for joint reflection, towards the development of a healthy and satisfactory experience as a couple.
