Strengthening Relationships Through Couples Therapy

At Mid Hudson Addiction Recovery, we understand that addiction doesn’t just affect the individual—it impacts relationships, marriages, and families. Our couples therapy services provide essential support to help partners navigate the challenges of addiction recovery while strengthening their relationship.

Effects of Drug Addiction On Family Members

The Role of Couples Therapy in Addiction Treatment

Couples therapy—also referred to as relationship counseling or couples counseling—is designed to help partners improve communication, rebuild trust, and support each other in the recovery process. Addiction can create significant relationship distress, leading to disconnection, emotional turmoil, and broken trust. Our licensed therapists offer structured therapy sessions to address these challenges and foster positive changes in relationships.

What to Expect in Couples Therapy Sessions

At Mid Hudson Addiction Recovery, our couples therapy sessions are led by experienced couples therapists trained in evidence-based approaches such as:

  • Gottman Method – Focuses on enhancing intimacy, managing conflict, and improving emotional connection.
  • Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) – Helps couples create a deeper emotional bond and navigate difficult emotions together.
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – Addresses negative thought patterns and develops healthier ways to cope with relationship issues.
  • Family Therapy – Engages both partners and, when appropriate, other family members to rebuild a support system.

Who Can Benefit from Couples Therapy?

Couples therapy is beneficial for those facing:

  • Addiction-related relationship issues
  • Emotional disconnection and communication breakdowns
  • Struggles with rebuilding trust and intimacy
  • Family stressors or transitions affecting the relationship
  • The need for problem-solving strategies in recovery

Whether you are engaged, married, or in a committed partnership, couples therapy can help strengthen your relationship while providing the tools needed for a healthy relationship and a wellness-focused future.

Online and In-Person Couples Therapy Options
