What is Couples Therapy?

Couples therapy is a type of relationship therapy designed to help two people work through their issues in a structured, supportive environment.

Common Issues Addressed in Couples Therapy

At Hue Therapy, Kerimé works with couples experiencing a wide range of relationship issues, including:

• Communication breakdowns: When partners struggle to understand each other or feel misunderstood, it often leads to frustration and resentment. Therapy can help improve effective communication by teaching new skills.

• Trust issues: Whether due to infidelity or other betrayals, trust issues can be incredibly difficult to overcome. Therapy provides a structured space for rebuilding trust and strengthening the emotional bond between partners.

• Power struggles: In many relationships, partners find themselves locked in a battle for control, often around topics like finances, decision-making, or even parenting. Therapy helps couples recognise potential conflicts and resolve these power struggles.

• Lack of intimacy: Emotional and physical distance is a common challenge for couples. Therapy can help partners address the underlying issues contributing to a lack of intimacy and work towards reconnecting on a deeper level and regaining an intimate relationship.

• Conflict resolution: All couples argue, but when arguments turn into constant fights or lead to emotional hurt, a bad habit is formed. Therapy teaches couples how to resolve conflicts in a healthy, respectful manner.

• Significant life events: Significant life events can create disconnection and distance. Often leading to a need to rebuild or form new relationship connections. As individuals navigate their own adjustment or processes, they may emerge as new versions of themselves. In therapy, couples can explore this new dynamic together, providing a supported space for rediscovering and recreating their partnership.

Our Approach

There are many different therapeutic approaches that can be used in couples therapy, each tailored to the specific needs of the couple. At Hue Therapy, Kerimé utilises several evidence-based approaches for couples to work through their challenges.

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is a highly effective approach to couples therapy that focuses on helping partners understand and manage their emotional reactions. EFT helps couples develop a deeper emotional connection by creating a safe space to express vulnerabilities and learn new ways of responding to each other. 

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is another approach used in couples therapy at Hue Therapy. CBT focuses on identifying and changing harmful thought patterns that contribute to relationship issues. Through CBT, couples learn to recognise and challenge negative thoughts and behaviours, replacing them with healthier, more positive ones.

The Gottman Method

The Gottman Method is a research-based approach that helps couples improve communication, manage conflict, and build emotional intimacy. By focusing on the dynamics of the relationship, this method offers practical strategies for addressing common problems like trust issues and lack of intimacy.

Systemic Therapy

Systemic therapy looks at the couple’s relationship in the context of their larger social system, including family dynamics, career, and other external pressures. This approach is particularly useful for couples who are facing family issues, such as balancing child care or dealing with the impact of extended family.
