Couples Counseling for Miami, OK: When One of You Is Unsure About Therapy
Updated: 2 days ago
Wanting couples therapy and wanting to attend couples therapy are not always the same thing. You can want your relationship to improve and still dread sitting in a room discussing it with someone you’ve never met.
If you’re in Miami, Oklahoma, and considering the trip to my office in Webb City, Missouri, it’s reasonable to want a clearer idea of what you’re signing up for.
I work exclusively with couples. My approach is Emotionally Focused Therapy, which means we look closely at how you get caught in conflict or distance and what makes it difficult to reach each other. Both of you need room to describe your experience, including concerns about therapy itself.
Perhaps you’re worried that your partner will do all the talking, that you’ll be blamed, or that difficult conversations will follow you home. Those concerns belong in the conversation. You don’t have to pretend to be enthusiastic to participate.
You also don’t need to agree about everything before coming. We can begin with what each of you hopes will change and what makes trying feel difficult.
Sessions are in person in Webb City, near Joplin, and cost $180 for 100–110 minutes. I don’t take insurance. Before arranging the drive, you’re welcome to call or text 417-768-9089 or email shira@radicalrelationshiptransformation.com to ask about appointments.
