Can a couples therapy app help you?
The answer is both yes and no so keep reading to understand why? Not every couples therapy app is created equally and therefore not all are going to have a positive effect on your relationship.
Does a couples therapy app capture your attention or promote connection?
Did you know that there is one key ingredient to every successful psychological intervention that has stood the test of time over decades and decades of research? There is and it is called the “therapeutic relationship”. What this implies is that a key ingredient to change is a strong supportive relationship. How does this relate to a couples therapy app? Let me explain. If the couples therapy app you are using does not bring you and your partner together and facilitate authentic connection you are unlikely to get any positive outcomes. For example, if you are sitting around independently on your couples therapy app answering quizzes and doing games any change is likely to be short lived and superficial. In the My Love Your Love couples therapy app you have to work together to complete the journey. The My Love Your Love couples therapy app prompts users to interact face to face strengthening the relationship bond and creating the base for change.
What is the theory behind the couples therapy app and who has created it?
You might be surprised to hear that some creators of couples therapy apps are not clinically qualified or trained. Some creators want to share their relationship advice based on their own life and others consult psychologists and then claim the app is based on “psychological theory”. As such there may be no real theory behind the interventions or why their couples therapy app may or may not work. The My Love Your Love is created by Shahn Baker Sorekli and Helen Robertson who are a married couple, both are qualified Clinical Psychologists and both are couples therapists. There is theory and reason behind every intervention in their couples therapy app. Shahn and Helen are seasoned in their field and they have utilized all their clinical experience and the field research as both individual and couples practitioners to help couples create the changes required for lasting bonds across the lifespan. You might be thinking – well okay, but what is their theory behind the My Love Your Love app? You don’t have to wonder. You can learn about the theory behind My Love Your Love by reading their book The 8 Love Links. In fact, we highly recommend it! Because reading The 8 Love Links and digesting the theory is a great way to start your journey into individual and couples insight and growth.
