If your partner isn’t open to counseling right now, it can still be very helpful to start therapy on your own.
Couples Counseling for One
It’s common for one partner to hesitate, sometimes waiting for proof that change is possible before agreeing to attend sessions. When one person begins therapy on their own, it often becomes the catalyst for meaningful change in the relationship. By working on your own emotional patterns, communication habits, and personal responses, you can begin shifting the dynamic between you and your partner—even without their direct participation.
We offer teletherapy across Washington State as well as in-person sessions at our Seattle office in South Lake Union. If you're ready to move forward on your own and explore how therapy can help your relationship, we’re here to support you.
