Couples therapy, also known as couples counseling or marriage therapy, is a form of psychotherapy designed to help couples address and resolve conflicts, improve communication, and strengthen their relationships. It is typically conducted by psychologists or therapists who are trained to work with couples experiencing various issues in their relationships. Couples therapy aims to create a safe and supportive environment for partners to explore their concerns and  work together to achieve healthier and more satisfying connections.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a widely practiced and evidence-based therapeutic approach that can be effectively applied in couples therapy. CBT focuses on identifying and modifying negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to emotional distress and relationship problems. By applying CBT techniques in couples therapy, individuals and couples can gain insight into their relationship dynamics, learn to address issues more effectively, and ultimately build stronger, healthier relationships. This approach is particularly effective for couples facing conflicts related to communication, trust, intimacy, and various relationship stressors.
