Couples therapy?

Has anyone tried couples therapy with your partner or spouse? If so, how did it go? I am currently a few months in CT with my partner and I’m not exactly getting productive results.

it has become more of a sounding board for him to complain about certain things around our home, or in our life and continues to distract from addressing the real issues we have in our relationship

@Blueandthegrey Like any kind of therapy, it only works if the therapist is skilled, and paper qualifications are no guarantee of skill. It sounds like trying a different therapist might be more useful than continuing this distraction from the real issues.

@Blueandthegrey

Completely agree with @RarelyCharlie finding a good fit is hard and I have always heard 4 to 1 bad experiences vs good ones.
