What is couples therapy?

Couples therapy, also known as marriage counselling, is a form of psychotherapy that focuses on improving the relationship between partners. It involves a trained therapist who works with couples to resolve conflicts, establish more honest communication, and strengthen their bond. At It's Complicated, our team of experienced therapists specialises in providing couples therapy to address various relationship challenges. The practice of couples therapy will vary depending on the therapist’s approach, but oftentimes couples therapy involves a focus on a specific problem (e.g. jealousy, sexual difficulties, infidelity) and change-oriented interventions early on in the process. It's Complicated offers couples therapists with many different approaches and backgrounds such as behavioural couples therapy, psychodynamic, CBT or Jungian.

How couples therapy works 

Couples therapy at It's Complicated utilises evidence-based techniques to promote effective communication and collaborative problem-solving. During a typical couples therapy session, the therapist creates a safe and supportive environment where both partners can openly express their thoughts and feelings. The therapist helps the couple identify behaviour patterns, explore underlying emotions, and develop strategies for constructive conflict resolution. Through structured sessions, couples will over time learn to communicate more effectively, rebuild trust, and deepen their connection. Our built-in video tool allows sessions to occur between the couples therapist and two participants in different locations, facilitating therapy for long-distance relationships or partners who are currently separated.
