44: Couples Therapy as 2 Individually-Oriented Therapists

Dear Therapists, Couples work is not for everyone, we get that. Yet, it's nearly impossible to do individual work without considering our clients' relationships. Join us in this week's discussion as we discuss our perspectives and (at times, limited) experiences with doing couples work. Settle in as we navigate this type of work, especially as therapists, but also as humans in our own unique relationships. We cover topics such as communication, infidelity, outgrowing relationships, bias, and the mental load. Couples therapists, we tip our hats to you big time, the work you do is so valuable.
