Clinical psychology is a field within psychology that teaches practical skills such as psychological testing and counseling, as well as attitudes and behaviors (competencies) for the psychological profession in order to help people with mental problems recover.
Clinical psychology has foundational theories (behavioral, cognitive, systems, etc.). Therapists support clients' recovery by applying appropriate theories to competencies depending on the client's situation.
Couples therapy is a therapy aimed at improving and repairing problems between partners, such as married couples and opposite-sex or same-sex lovers. While " marriage counseling" is well known in Japan, couples therapy is available to couples in all types of relationships, including dating, engagement, and marriage.
In other countries, couples therapy is used by many couples in the same way as one-on-one counseling.
Taking the couples therapy approach is not just about sorting out the situation between the two of you.
Talking about emotional experiences with trusted others can help people feel connected and secure. Thus, talking itself can alleviate one's own distress. By observing the facts and empathizing with their own and their partner's feelings from such a psychologically safe place, it is easier for the client to gain a deeper understanding and insight into the problem, leading to essential problem solving.
In both couples and individual therapy, the therapist uses competency skills such as assessment and intervention to help the client resolve issues through dialogue. In the process, the client typically follows the following psychological and behavioral processes
Until self-acceptance is complete, you may experience emotional instability. Please do not hesitate to tell your therapist if you are in distress. Also, the process is not a linear progression; it may go back and forth between back and forth steps.
