What to expect in couples in recovery therapy
1. Initial Assessment: The therapy process begins with an assessment where you and your partner will discuss the history of your relationship, the impact of addiction on your dynamic, and your individual goals for recovery and the relationship.
2. Building Communication Skills: Effective communication is key to any successful relationship. In therapy, you will work on listening skills, expressing emotions, and resolving conflicts in a healthy way.
3. Addressing Trust and Intimacy: Addiction can take a toll on trust and intimacy in a relationship. In therapy, we will work on rebuilding trust, setting healthy boundaries, and creating a deeper emotional and physical connection.
4. Relapse Prevention and Coping Skills: We will help you both develop strategies for handling triggers, preventing relapse, and coping with stress in ways that strengthen your relationship, not strain it.
5. Ongoing Support: Couples therapy in recovery is often an ongoing process. Regular check-ins, goal setting, and therapy sessions will ensure you both stay supported throughout your recovery journey, and your relationship continues to grow in a positive direction.
