Couples Therapy


Introduction


Couples therapy is a type of psychotherapy in which a licensed therapist helps people involved in a romantic relationship gain insight into their relationship, resolve conflict, and improve relationship satisfaction utilising a variety of therapeutic interventions. 

Most couples come away from therapy with greater knowledge of their relational patterns and with the necessary skills to effectively communicate and problem-solve with their partners.


Although the practice of behavioural couples therapy may vary, all couples therapy tends to involve a focus on a specific problem, active participation on the part of the therapist in treating the relationship itself, rather than each individual separately.


You can be rest assured that at Skooc, you and your family are in good hands.


Symptoms


Keep a lookout for some of the following signs:


If you notice recurring instances of a few of these symptoms, we at Skooc recommend a formal evaluation.


Diagnosis


At Skooc, we help you better understand what you are going through. Typically, the first couples therapy session begins with some standard interview questions regarding the history of the relationship as well as deep-diving into each partner's family-of-origin, values, and cultural background. The therapist might use the initial sessions for crisis intervention if necessary. The couple's therapist will then assist the couple in identifying the issue that will be the focus of treatment, establishing treatment goals and planning a structure for treatment for each counselling session.

Next Steps and Intervention


Our team of professional psychologists at Skooc can help you by providing the necessary interventions. During treatment, the therapist will help the couple gain insight into the relational dynamics creating the problem and guide both partners to understand their roles in the dysfunctional interactions. This will help them change the way they perceive the relationship and each other. To aid changing behaviours, couples therapists will often assign partners homework to apply the skills they have learned in therapy to their day-to-day interactions.


At Skooc, we use the following methods of behavioural therapy:

"My daughter lost 11 kgs across the Skooc program which was more than 10% of her body weight and has stayed in the healthy range of BMI since then. She now makes the right decisions regarding her foods and is aware of the effect of what she eats and her exercise on her weight.

Skooc has helped my daughter get into a great shape physically and mentally. She has lost more than 15 kgs and has improved her health metrics enough that she is no longer at risk of chronic diseases. The program worked with my daughter and me to help us understand how to correct what we were doing. Very importantly, Avi and I no longer fight over what she eats and what she does not.

My son has lost 15 kgs and I lost 10 kgs through the Skooc program. It was easily paced and did not ever restrict my child from eating anything that was essential. He had a balanced meal everyday and he and his counsellor agreed on a schedule that was easy for me to cook too. From a child who watched TV all the time and ate junk food, Ayaan is now an active child and a healthy eater who is very happy and confident with how he looks.

Ria was teased very badly in school for being fat and would be very embarrassed about even going out. When we went to the doctor we were shocked to find out that she was very overweight and had high cholesterol. We joined Skooc and both she and I have dropped our extra weight and even after finishing the full course are able to stick with the habits we learnt at Skooc. We are both very happy with our new healthy bodies.

My son suffered from constant digestive issues and obesity. He found it very difficult to run and play due to his thighs being very fat and also he suffered from pains in his knees, hips. He also had trouble breathing after even walking a small distance. We joined Skooc because we had tried to put Jay on a diet before and it had not worked. At Skooc, he dropped 24Kgs and is now a teenager who was healthily and works out everyday. I personally dropped 16Kgs and now we are both very close to entering our ideal weight zone
