Description

When two brains (and the people they belong to of course!) come together in a relationship, it's no surprise that challenges arise. These can often be worked out together but, there are times when a 'bump in the road' can grow into a mountain that can feel impossible to climb. 

In the midst of conflict, grief, intimacy challenges, adjusting to parenthood and countless other reasons that put pressure on a relationship, it can be incredibly isolating and overwhelming. Particularly when communication breaks down. 

In this episode Dr Jodi talks with therapist Marie Vakakis who explains everything we need to know about couples therapy. Marie shares everything from what to expect in the first few sessions, to the many reasons why couples come to therapy, to how to suggest couples therapy to your partner, to the powerful ways couples therapy can strengthen relationships and so much more. Couples therapy isn't just for the 'big stuff', and seeking therapy together, early, can be life changing.
