Couples Doing Better

Labeling couples as “bad communicators” is clinically convenient, and often inaccurate.

What looks like a skill deficit is often a protective response — rooted in fear, past hurt, or unresolved relational injury.

If therapists intervene only at the level of technique, they may reinforce the very pattern they are trying to change.
Depth precedes skill.
