Is Relationship Therapy the
same as Couples Therapy?

The terms "relationship therapy" and "couples therapy" are often used interchangeably, but they do not necessarily mean the same thing.

Couples therapy is a type of therapy that specifically focuses on the dynamics and issues within a romantic relationship. It can address communication issues, infidelity, trust, conflict resolution, and other common relationship challenges. On the other hand, relationship therapy may also refer to therapy or counselling for any kind of personal relationship such as familial relationships or friendships. It may also include individual therapy aimed at improving one's overall approach to relationships in their life.

In short, couples therapy tends to be more targeted towards resolving specific issues within a romantic partnership while relationship therapy can encompass a wider range of interpersonal dynamics and relationships. Both types of therapy can be helpful in addressing difficulties within personal relationships and improving communication and connection.

Relationship counselling isn’t just for couples

Relationship counselling is not just for couples - individuals of any relationship status can benefit from implementing its strategies and principles.

Couples may seek counselling to address specific issues in their marriage or partnership, but individuals can also benefit from working with a therapist on their relationships with friends, family members, and even colleagues. Relationship counselling can help individuals learn effective communication skills, set boundaries, and work through conflicts. It can also aid in improving self-esteem and becoming more assertive in relationships.
