It warms my heart when couples make the effort to openly share their feelings in counselling.
Marriage creates a new family unit and is one of the most intimate relationships, demanding mutual commitment and faithfulness. For couples to grow together, it’s essential to establish healthy boundaries and a strong relationship.
While every marriage aims for a strong, happy, healthy, and loving bond, research identifies several key causes of marital issues:
- Partners’ personalities or characteristics
- Communication styles and relational stances
- Conflict resolution skills
- Personal values and belief systems
- Relationships with influential family members
- Financial stability, which can cause mental and emotional distress
- Presence of a ‘third party’ or addictions
To benefit from therapy and improve their marriage, couples need to recognize unhelpful coping patterns and beliefs. They should work constructively, avoiding blame and shame. Addressing past and present issues, particularly underlying pain and anger, is crucial for healing.
Rebuilding respect, trust, and love is a process requiring calm resolve, patience, sensitivity, and attentiveness. This approach helps address root causes, enhance relational skills, and better understand each other.
