Therapy Group of Charlotte Addresses "Divorce Month": A Roadmap for Relationship Rescue
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - January is frequently referred to as "Divorce Month" by legal experts due to an increase in divorce filings following the holiday season. However, the Therapy Group of Charlotte is encouraging community members to shift their focus from separation to healing, launching a new collection of guides that clarify the journey of marriage counseling in the Queen City.
Studies indicate that couples typically wait an average of six years after issues arise before seeking assistance. By this time, feelings of resentment have often taken root. To address this delay, the South End-based practice is unveiling what truly occurs during counseling sessions, with the aim of alleviating the anxiety that prevents partners from making that initial appointment.
The newly released resources outline the dynamics of the first 3-5 sessions of couples counseling, detailing how therapists transition from "relationship mapping" in the first week to pinpointing the "negative cycles" that lead to conflict by the third week.
Many couples worry that therapy will devolve into a referee scenario or, even worse, that it will be ineffective. However, the statistics present an encouraging narrative. The goal is for couples in Charlotte to understand that couples therapy boasts a 70% success rate when both partners are actively involved. Success is not merely about remaining together; it encompasses breaking the silence and resentment that erodes connection.
The practice employs evidence-based approaches, including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and the Gottman Method, to assist couples in navigating a range of challenges, from infidelity to the pressures of acclimating to life in Charlotte.
For those aiming to prioritize "relationship health" as their New Year's resolution, Therapy Group of Charlotte provides comprehensive marriage and couples therapy services at their South End location as well as through telehealth options.
