During relationship counseling (also called couples therapy) a licensed therapist can help you and your partner with a range of relationship issues during a face-to-face meeting, from problems communicating or resolving conflicts to infidelity, parenting concerns, sexual difficulties, and more. Your therapist can help you better understand each other’s actions and motivations, and learn skills for better communicating and resolving conflicts. Relationship counseling is for adults of any gender who are in an intimate relationship. If your partner doesn’t want to participate, you can have a relationship counseling session on your own. With the Amwell web or mobile app, you can receive relationship counseling online in your home with complete confidentiality.
