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 a notable increase in divorce filings following the holiday season. Nevertheless, Therapy Group of Charlotte is encouraging community members to shift their focus from separation to reconciliation, unveiling a new array of resources aimed at simplifying the journey of marriage counseling in the Queen City.
Studies reveal that couples typically wait an average of six years after issues emerge to seek assistance. By this time, feelings of resentment have often taken root. To address this delay, the South End-based practice is clarifying what occurs during therapy sessions, with the hope of alleviating the apprehension that prevents partners from making that initial appointment.
The newly released materials outline what transpires in 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 disputes by the third week.
Many couples worry that therapy will devolve into a referee scenario or, even worse, that it will prove ineffective. However, statistics present an encouraging narrative. The practice wants couples in Charlotte to understand that couples therapy boasts a 70% success rate when both partners are actively engaged. Success is not solely defined by staying together; it also encompasses breaking the silence and resentment that can undermine emotional connection.
The practice employs evidence-based approaches, including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and the Gottman Method, to assist couples in navigating challenges ranging from infidelity to the pressures of adjusting to life in Charlotte.
For those aiming to prioritize "relationship wellness" as their New Year's resolution, Therapy Group of Charlotte provides comprehensive marriage and couples therapy services at their South End location and through telehealth options.
