This is for anyone considering attending couples counseling and you are unsure of what to look for or perhaps you are hesitant about going because you don\u2019t know if it will be effective.\n\nThis is also for if you are in fight loops and your conflicts are not being solved and things are being heightened. If you find that you are both throwing out intense ultimatums and yet both staying in the relationship, it\u2019s definitely worth trying \u2013 and also shopping for the right person who brings out the deeper emotional truths in both of you. If you haven\u2019t done it before \u2013 this is my opinion as a married person: Why you\u2019re doing it as well as what happens while you\u2019re there.\n\xa0\nI also think a lot of people believe, \u201cI\u2019m doing everything right and my partner is doing everything wrong.\u201d And they go to couples counseling not knowing what the goal is or expecting the counselor to tell their partner, \u201cYou are wrong and you should listen to everything your partner is saying.\u201d And so I wanted to give you my two cents on how to approach couples counseling in the hopes that it will allow you to get something better out of it. So this may help you identify a goal for yourself in therapy \u2013 with your partner, so you can curate that result.\n\xa0\nI think of a couples counselor as a translator in many ways. They are also containers for the deeper feelings to be revealed so that both can shift behavior toward love and or decisions that are loving. Take what helps and leave the rest! Sending love.\n\xa0\nFor more of my work you can head to YayWithMe.com xo!\nLearn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
