Q: What if my partner doesn’t want to come in, but I think we need relationship counseling?

A: This is a common concern. At Individual & Relationship Counseling Associates, we often see one partner hesitant about couples therapy. Our advice: come in anyway. It’s a myth that both partners must attend to create change. When one person engages in therapy, their growth can positively shift the relationship dynamic.

We also suggest inviting your partner to just one session. This low-pressure approach lets them experience therapy firsthand, often making them more open to continuing.

Our therapists tailor the work to each couple’s unique needs. Even if your partner is reluctant, we support you with strategies to navigate the process. Our goal is a safe, constructive space where both partners feel truly heard.
