It can boost intimacy
Even if just you go to therapy and not your partner, you’re doing some heavy lifting for your relationship that you can both benefit from. The SuperDrug study found that couples in which at least one person has gone to therapy rate intimacy as good or excellent.

Imagine the benefits when both individuals frequent therapy.
