Our Love Story, Q&A for Couples
Are you and your partner facing challenges in your relationship and considering couples counseling? It's a big step, and finding the right counselor can make all the difference. In this video, Katie and Dyanna dive into what you should look for in a couples counselor, important factors to consider, where to search and what to expect from the process.
Qualifications and Expertise:
Look for a counselor with proper credentials and training in couples therapy. A licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) or a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with specific training in couples counseling is a good start.
Compatibility and Connection:
A strong rapport with your counselor is vital. You should feel comfortable discussing sensitive issues, so consider whether their personality and communication style align with yours.

Confidentiality and Professionalism:
Ensure the counselor follows ethical guidelines and maintains confidentiality. A professional demeanor creates a safe space for open dialogue.
Reviews and Recommendations:
Read reviews and seek recommendations from friends, family, or online forums. Real experiences can give you valuable insights into a counselor's effectiveness.
Where to Search for Counselors:
Look online on platforms like Psychology Today, BetterHelp, or local therapist directories. Referrals from healthcare providers can also be reliable.
Initial Consultation and Assessment:
Most counselors offer an initial session to discuss your concerns and their approach. Use this time to gauge their understanding and see if it's a good fit.
Frequency and Duration of Sessions:
Discuss the frequency and expected duration of sessions. Some issues might require short-term intervention, while others could need more extended support.
Cost and Insurance Coverage:
Counseling costs vary. Inquire about fees, payment options, and whether they accept insurance. Don't let financial concerns deter you from seeking help; some counselors offer different options.
Homework and Active Participation:
Counseling often involves homework and exercises to practice between sessions. Active participation from both partners can accelerate progress.
Realistic Expectations:
Couples counseling isn't a magic fix; it requires commitment and effort. Understand that it's about growth and healthier communication, not immediate resolution.
Conclusion and Final Tips:
Finding the right couples counselor is crucial for your relationship's well-being. Take your time to research, ask questions and trust your intuition. Remember, seeking help is a sign of strength, and with the right counselor, you can navigate challenges and build a stronger, more fulfilling partnership.
