In addition to regular couple therapy, I offer Couple Day – a full day for one couple with exercises, time for reflection and new knowledge. The couple day can be used by the new couple with several failed relationships behind them. It’s for the brave and mature couple who now want to clear the skeletons out of the closet in order to have a good and healthy love relationship with each other. Or the more established couple who feel that the conflicts are becoming more difficult and the distance is growing. In some cases, there are many conflicts, you can barely feel or reach each other, but you don’t want to break up because there are children, a life and occasionally a glimmer of hope for the desire for life together. When so much distance has been created, a Couples Day, Parterapi Valby, is part of an actual couple therapy programme to take the necessary seven-mile step back on the right path.
What is a Couples Day?
A Couples Day is a whole day just for you. A day of alternating between teaching, immersion through small exercises and your experiences of yourselves in your relationship. For the best effect, however, it is necessary for me to get to know you through a small preliminary process.
The day will be organised in advance, based on the information I have about you, your relationship, how you met, what did you fall in love with, what drove or drives the relationship to develop into a love relationship? But also your individual attachment history is important for my organisation of the day’s content and exercises.
The programme for the day will give you the opportunity to gain greater insight into what is happening in each of you at the deeper emotional levels, i.e. the more non-conscious memories that are expressed through fixed patterns of thought and action. This is knowledge that can be difficult to access through ordinary conversations, and at the same time knowledge that, when made into a shared experience, has a huge impact on the way we interact with each other. Quite simply, we gain new knowledge about ourselves and our partner.
