All of us got married expecting the best but from the statistics our hopes and dreams are falling short. Does it have to be this way? Of course not. As a licensed therapist in private practice for nearly 20 years and 45,000 hours of face to face time with couples I've learned relationships can thrive. I have also learned through training nearly 40,000 therapists who now provide approximately 31,200,000 hours of therapy annually we have the answers to couple's woes.
At the heart of every relationship is commitment. It's a term we hear every day but what does it actually mean for couples? It means, "I'm completely emotionally invested in this relationship and it's my journey for life." That is a vast statement but one that is attainable.
A commitment to small changes, with consistency, will make all the difference.
