Marriage Therapy in Newark, DE—Therapists and Counselors in Newark

Marriage is the natural next step for many couples. Two individuals have grown their love for the past several years or their love has developed fast; either way, they’re convinced they want to spend forever together. The couple becomes increasingly excited as they pick their venue, as the bride says “yes” to the dress, as they send out the invitations. What they don’t anticipate, though, is all that comes with marriage—while they’re prepared to vow their commitment to each other “through the good and the bad” and “in sickness and in health,” they don’t fully realize that there are likely challenges ahead.

“A happy marriage is about three things: memories of togetherness, forgiveness of mistakes, and a promise to never give up on each other.” –Surabhi Surendra

There’s nothing wrong with arguing or running into trouble now and then with your spouse. In fact, it’s normal and healthy to experience conflict—and getting through this conflict actually strengthens a relationship. But the catch is that some couples struggle to communicate effectively about an issue and/or to resolve a given conflict. That’s where marriage therapy comes in.

Marriage therapy is designed to help spouses work through the issues that plague their relationship, from parenting disagreements to financial strife, infidelity, and much more. If you and your partner could use professional help and support, consider working with a marriage therapist at Thriveworks Newark. The providers at Thriveworks Newark have an impressive set of skills and experience to back them up. They can help you strengthen your marriage and live an ultimately happier life together. Call (302) 724-6662 to schedule an appointment.

Common Topics Discussed in Marriage Therapy

Life can get crazy and hard to balance: With work, chores, and other responsibilities crowding the picture, many of us put our relationships on the backburner. You might even have days where you barely say a word to each other because you’ve both been busy on the go. While this is totally understandable, it’s also crucial that we give our spouse the regular love and attention they deserve. Even if it’s a quick text reminding your spouse that you’re thinking of them or you can’t wait to see them.

The above depicts a common problem: time management. There are other issues that arise in marriage and that are discussed in marriage therapy, including:

  • Lack of intimacy
  • Jealousy issues
  • Infidelity/adultery
  • Disagreements in parenting
  • Ineffective communication
  • Money struggles

Do you and your spouse argue about the above? Are you struggle to “agree to disagree” or move forward happily with your relationship? If the answer is yes, consider working with a marriage therapist at Thriveworks Newark. We have marriage therapists who are ready to step in and help immediately. They can assist you in working through the above issues (or issues that did not make this list) and provide the necessary support.

Great scheduling team!

★★★★★
I called to make an appointment for my daughter and Kenyata was SO friendly and helpful. She answered all of my questions and was so easy to talk to. Scheduling as a first-time patient is always so difficult, but this was so easy and accomodating. If the scale is 1-5, 5 being the best, I'd give my experience a 10!

The right kind of help when I needed it

★★★★★
Dr Thompson provides great support and advice. She helped me through a rough time in my life and gave me the right kind of help when I needed it. I learned a ton about myself, cleaned up some past baggage that was weighing me down, and got my life back on track. I still use the skills she taught me in my relationships, at work, with my kids and I feel in control of my life. I’m not happy go lucky 100% of the time, but I’m much more relaxed and open and confident that I can handle whatever comes up. Big thanks to Dr Thompson!

Caring, competent therapists,

★★★★★
When Dr Thompson announced she was opening a Thriveworks office in Newark, I was thrilled. Over the past 20 years, I have referred many clients to Dr Thompson and found her to be sensitive, caring, ethical, and highly skilled with a wide range of clients. She was able to connect with folks who’ve had difficulty finding a good fit with other clinicians, and she seemed to know just the right approach with some of my clients who’d tried therapy in the past, but didn’t really feel at ease. Her compassion, experience, and excellent clinical skills make her my first choice when referring out; I would send my own family members to Dr Thompson.
