Strategies to solve Couple conflict

with Couple Therapy

Nancy Carbone overcomes couples communication breakdown in couples counselling services,  assisting partners  to communicate their inner feelings, so they do not defend against them with becoming angry. In Couple Therapy in Perth, the escalating partner learns the strategies to see what happens for them, in an argument with their partner. As a reflective listening skill, in the ‘here and now’ moments of the couple session, couples begin to process, slow down and reflect before reacting, so they get in touch with what happens for them. In couple counselling, partners find ways to communicate what they are feeling underneath their defences, to overcome couple conflict.
As a Perth counsellor for couples, Nancy has found that slowing down and processing what is underneath the defensive reactions allows couples to speak calmer and listen each other, as an effective tool to express themselves, to manage couples conflict. Reactions are usually defences and also elicit a defensive reaction in the other, so it blocks communication.

 Couples Therapy helps couples the communication skills to relate to each other. Partners process how they hurt each other with   their fights and trigger emotional wounds, by their defensive actions. At Counselling in Perth, Therapy for couples  is designed to create a safe space which prevents this from happening, so they can  repair couple conflict.

When couples arrive to  therapy they recognize is it hard to stop in the heat of the moment, because these feelings are too much to handle, resulting in couple discord.  If you are too caught up in your reactions, you will not have the space to respond to your partner or hear them.  As a effective communication method, when you slow down you may also start to notice what is happening for your partner and gain resolution for marital conflict.

If you find it difficult to not react, one way to talk is try to find a suitable time to express your difficulties, preferably once you have reflected on what came up for you. Couples who have difficulties communicating  obtain couple therapy to overcome escalating fighting.

As a tecqhnique to overcome couple difficulties and conflict, do not assume your partner is ready to talk when you are,   you need to check they have the space to listen.  You could ask, “ do you have a moment?”,  “when are you free?” or “ Is it OK if I say something?” Your partner will feel more included. Pick a moment to talk when you are both less reactive. They will be more able to hear what you have to say and not distracted by other things.
