Couples in conflict as well as couples who have lost their tension can find more balance in couples therapy. <strong>In couples therapy, couples develop new strategies, goals and interaction patterns together and thus achieve greater satisfaction in their relationship.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Differences in a partnership always lead to misunderstandings, conflicts or a lack of understanding. <strong>The aim of couples therapy is to improve communication so that both parties are better able to deal with differences.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Mental illness is a particular challenge for couples.<\/strong> Studies show that couples therapy can be just as effective as individual therapy in achieving an improvement in depression, for example (Angelo Barbato et al. 2018). As a rule, we recommend couples therapy in addition to individual therapy in the case of mental illness. The illness not only puts a strain on the person who is ill, but also on the relationship and therefore on the partner. <strong>Caring is easier if the sick person reacts gratefully and empathetically.<\/strong> However, anyone suffering from depression cannot give emotional feedback (Klaus-Thomas Kronm\u00fcller 2019). Without dealing with the specifics of the illness, the partner may give advice and support that is inappropriate or even harmful. <strong>Couples therapy is advisable to ensure that mutual support has the desired effect<\/strong> (Cornelia Faulde 2022).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Couples therapy offers the opportunity to develop understanding for each other, to revise negative patterns in the couple relationship and to discover new, satisfying interactions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2565,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2567","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Couple dynamics and depression &#8211;
