Save Your Relationship

A failing relationship can bring suffering and unhappiness to all concerned. Unfortunately, most people do not have the tools or knowledge to repair their relationship and rekindle their love and passion. The result is all too often unhappy lives and broken homes.

You can save your marriage and restore your love and happiness. 

Marriage Counseling

Marriage Counseling (also known as Marriage Therapy and Couples Counseling) can help you fix your marriage or relationship. The goal of a trained and experienced Marriage Counselor is to give you the guidance and tools you need to save your relationship and restore happiness to you, your spouse and your family.

Having helped marriages for more than three decades, Daphna and her team have the knowledge and expertise to help you bring back to your marriage the love, passion and happiness you desire.

What Does Marriage Counseling Solve?

Marriage Counseling will be started in an attempt to accomplish certain, predetermined goals such as:

• Develop communication skills between partner

• Teach the tools partners need to stop arguments and fights and resolve their differences through discussion

• Address and try to resolve infidelity and restore trust

• Work to resolve financial problems and irresponsibility

• Improve problem-solving within the relationship

• Determine and agree upon relationship responsibilities

• Constructively work on life changes that may have altered the original course of the relationship

• Address differences in belief systems

• Help to overcome differences in opinion regarding ethics, morality, integrity, virtue, etc.

• Figure out solutions to problems with the couple’s whole family

• Identify and agree upon life goals and future plans

As far as the duration of Marriage Counseling, it depends on the needs and wants of the couple, the severity of their issues or differences and how the initial sessions go. This is to say that some instances of Marriage Counseling or Couple Counseling may last as short as four sessions or for as long as several months and over a dozen sessions.

The Benefits Of Marriage Counseling

The main idea behind Marriage Counseling or Couple Counseling is that marital partners who get into a situation that they cannot resolve or work through, experience a sort of an impasse or a dead end. Every time they attempt to resolve their issue or issues, they end up with fights and upsets that get them absolutely nowhere. By entering Marriage Counseling, the couple is bringing on the help of a third person, and not just any third person. They are bringing on a professional who is knowledgeable, well-trained and experienced in the field of helping couples to overcome whatever issues they might be struggling with.

Once counseling has begun, the couple’s approach changes from arguing and fighting to constructive efforts to address their problems. That is not to say that there will never be heated moments in a counseling session. However, there will be an experienced professional in the room to help partners sort through any disorder or chaos that may come to the surface. Both of you will have a chance to communicate your concerns and upsets regarding the relationship to each other and to your counselor. This back-and-forth communication is a way to constructively and positively discuss issues that were unresolvable before, simply because your partner and you would grow too upset and argumentative to get to the core of the issues and reach a resolution. The main focus and goal of Marriage Counseling is to address those relationship problems you could not resolve on your own, with the help and guidance of an expert.

When Is Marriage Counseling Used?

Studies show that couples do not usually seek help until about six years after problems begin, which is unfortunate because the more time that passes since the inception of a problem, the harder it is to address that problem. Generally speaking, there are four different scenarios under which a couple will seek outside help or Coaching to address their relationship:

1. The couple has been married for some time, has had a problem or problems in an area or areas of the relationship, and has been unable to resolve them on their own. This is probably the most common scenario in which couples seek Marriage Counseling.

1. One other scenario is when a marriage is on the rocks yet the couple has not given up and seeks help to salvage the marriage and keep the family together. Marriage Counseling is then used to clear up the trouble and save the marriage.

1. Finally, there is the scenario of a marriage that is at a point of no return. The couple is seeking divorce but wishes to separate amicably and respectfully. They may also need to coparent and do so in a way that best serves their children. To accomplish that they may seek Marriage Counseling.

With Marriage Counseling by Daphna Levy and her team, a successful, thriving and happy marriage can become a reality.
