What To Expect When You Go To Relationship Therapy
What To Expect When You Go To Relationship Therapy
Life Coaching and Therapy (LCAT) is an individual, relationship therapy, and sex therapy practice that transforms our clients lives through our flexible, multi-technique approach and pleasure skills training provided by licensed systemically-trained psychotherapists.
It’s time to do some reassessing on the relationships in your life and decide what kind of relationship you really want with your romantic partner. If not, you may end up in relationship therapy when it’s too late.
Relationship therapy can help those with communication issues, desire discrepancy, and those who have a willingness to learn more.
So…maybe you want a traditional, equal, or open, or kinky relationship? We know that there are a variety of relationship styles, yet how do you attain the type of relationship that you desire?
Relationship therapy is a great place to begin, because it is discreet, confidential, and balanced.
How do you go about determining what type of relationship you want?
Where do you fall on the spectrum above?
Compare with your partner(s).
This will provide valuable information.
Once you know what type of relationship you desire, and if all partners are interested in creating that, you can begin to envision piece by piece the steps to get there.
Some of the plans you can consider, if you don’t want to go to relationship therapy would be a systemic approach (mind, body, feelings, and soul).
As a couple, it is important to continue to make relationship goals for yourself – that you accomplish as a team! Parenting is one example of how many couples accomplish relationship goals as a team. However, it isn’t quite as specific as relationship therapy for the parts of you that desire erotic and romantic connection.

- Understand how culture, cultural identity, and intersectionality are related to your behavioral health and your relationship

Often, relationship therapy is a solution that can provide valuable advice for this relationship, or the next if you have to consciously complete (end) the relationship.
