Your couples counseling sessions will begin with your counselor asking a series of questions to figure out where your relationship is.
[substeps] Your counselor may ask you, " how do you feel about our friendship? " or " how do you see our relationship changing? " you should also clarify your perspective so that a counselor understands where you're coming from. For example, " my partner is busy with work, and our friendship has become more serious. Be prepared to say a lot about your relationship with this person, but also let him/her know why you want to take the time to discuss your relationship. [substeps] The answers will work best if you know your counselor on a first come, first served basis. Your counselor will ask about your history as a couple, why you sought treatment, and other questions to see where you are as a couple. [substeps] Make sure you get everything out on the table about your relationship. Without being judgmental, consider how effective your sessions might be at removing naysayers.
