FOR COUPLE’S THERAPY, DO WE HAVE TO ATTEND ALL SESSIONS TOGETHER?

Once you have made the decision to undertake relationship therapy, there is no obligation for all sessions to be undertaken together. In fact in many instances, it can be more beneficial for partners to attend their sessions separately. This can be useful if one partner is more comfortable talking to the therapist alone, or if there are particular issues that one partner may want to discuss in private. 

Before making any decisions, it is important to discuss these plans with your therapist. They will be able to help you understand the pros and cons of attending sessions together or separately and will be able to make recommendations based on your individual needs. 

It will be up to you and your partner to decide on whether or not you attend all your sessions together, or perhaps decide to do some together and some separately. There is no right or wrong answer, and ultimately the best option for you will depend upon your individual circumstances.
