A Series Of Appointments With A Naples Psychologist Helps Couples With Marriage Counseling Solutions

By Donna Beley


If one partner in a marriage is not happy, she may want to discuss it. Her spouse may disagree. By speaking with a Naples psychologist, they can begin to improve the relationship by recognizing the existing problem.

A problem that is ignored will only get worse. It may be a simple misunderstanding. Counseling can help both partners to understand each other and accept that some discord is inevitable.

If one is unwilling to attend counseling sessions, the other can still benefit from counseling. A psychologist usually prefers to see both spouses. At some point each one may have a session alone.

Before any issue can be addressed, the marriage counselor works to help them admit their part in creating the problem. He will understand them through questioning and body language. A psychologist can gauge how long it may take to resolve their issues.

There may be a sensitive situation that is difficult to discuss. There may be an intimacy issue. Sex should be an integral part of a marriage, but, that is not always easy to manage.

There may be an aspect of intimacy that is desirable to one and abhorrent to the other. Healthy physical intimacy will then depend on their ability to compromise. If one partner has a health condition, it may affect his or her ability to enjoy intimacy.

A counselor can make it easier to uncover a hidden reason for lack of sexual contact. Through counseling, that reason can be confronted. The sexual incapacity can be resolved when it is understood.

A childhood incident of sexual molestation can result in the inability to enjoy sex. The spouse may not know about the abuse. When it is revealed, the other partner may be more tolerant.

An accidental injury or physical health problem is another possible cause. If one partner takes medication, that may lead to a lack of libido. But, the major barrier to sexual intimacy is the inability to communicate with each other.
