Communication

The best and most loving relationships, and those with so much potential for the future, can be unnecessarily strained, or even much worse, be unnecessarily ended if a couple cannot communicate adequately about both matters of daily living and their deepest emotional concerns.  Communication is never perfected in a relationship, but is something we all need to improve upon.  Indeed, part of communication is clarifying where we mis-communicated!  Communication problems arise out of faulty learning, emotional struggles, and/or never learning effective ways of communicating.  There are several important matters to assess when a couple presents for therapy, including:

  • Assess the history of relationships
  • Determine current communication patterns and difficulties
  • Evaluate both relational and individual issues
  • Distinguish between skills that will be needed vs. emotional challenges
  • Based upon these factors, formulate a plan to work together on improving the communication in your relationship
