Couples Therapy:

Whether you are married, dating, or living together, you and your partner can benefit from couples therapy. Couples therapy uses psychotherapeutic techniques to address a couple’s dynamic in both individual and couple sessions.

Any couple can benefit from couples therapy. It is a common misconception to think that only couples on the edge of a breakup need this form of therapy. Many perfectly healthy couples attend couples therapy so that they can proactively work on maintaining balance and happiness in their relationship.

Family Counseling:

When a family wants to work on improving communication and the ties that bind them together, they often turn to family counseling. Family counseling never focuses one one person, but rather the group dynamic as a whole. Patients can participate in group family sessions as well as in individual sessions that address the family dynamic. Family counseling is typically strengths-based, meaning it focuses on the assets of each family member rather than their deficits.

Family counseling treats a number of things, including:

• Mental health disorders or addiction in a family
• Traumas such as death or chronic illness
• Divorce
• Incarceration
• Conflict
• Developmental delays
• Blended families

Our expert physicians provide in-network therapy and psychiatry services, covered by insurance, through both Telehealth and In-person appointments.

Couples Counseling:

Every couple has highs and lows in their relationship. That loving communication, appreciation, and understanding are more easily described than carried-out in real life. When couples find themselves off-track, it does not mean the relationship is over. It often means that the couple just needs a little help. When trust has been lost, partners may be able to rebuild it. When couples are pulling in different direction, they can re-evaluate their priorities. When intimacy has been lost, that spark can be reignited. Couples therapy is not a magic formula to save a relationship, but it often helps. Skilled therapists can often turn challenges into opportunities for partners to grow closer to each other.

That is why Thriveworks San Antonio offers couples therapy. Many partners who want a better relationship do not always know how to improve their connection. Our therapists have helped many couples learn how to improve their relationship.

Family Therapy:

Whether or not you and your family need to see a therapist depends on your situation and personal opinions-it's a consensus you’ll need to reach together. However, it may be helpful to keep in mind that there are several indications of negative family dynamics that you can watch out for, including:

• Undiagnosed mental health conditions or disorders
• Alcohol or drug addiction
• Physical or verbal abuse
• Feelings of resentment or hostility
• Unruly behavioral issues in children or teens
• Persistent anxiety over financial issues or relationship difficulties
