Couples therapy in La Roca del Vallès: working through conflict with active listening and steadiness
Strengthen your relationship by working as a team with your partner, towards a deeper and more harmonious connection, in an open space without judgement.
Did you dream of the perfect relationship and now find yourself in a rut you do not know how to get out of?
If you feel you are in a cycle of monotony and disconnection, you will probably recognise yourselves in some of these situations:
-
Difficulty communicating with your partner
You cannot express what you feel, you feel your partner does not understand you, and you avoid important conversations for fear of an argument.
-
You would like to feel you make a good team with your partner
You are constantly looking for advice on improving your relationship and comparing yourselves with other couples who seem happier.
-
You fear being alone or losing control of your life
You avoid being alone with yourself, the idea of losing your partner frightens you, and you feel your life would make no sense without them.
-
You have lost your drive and do not feel valued
You want to live authentically, but you have lost your enthusiasm. At the end of the day you wonder whether this is the life you wanted.
-
You feel you have lost those intimate moments
The early magic and the passion with your partner have faded with time and daily responsibilities, leaving behind the passion that made you fall in love.
-
Arguments with your partner have intensified
The arguments are more and more frequent and intense, it is hard to stop in time and the distress ends up spilling over the relationship.
It is time to put on the table what you have not talked about in a long time.
Recover the relationship you want
I offer you a neutral space, grounded in my training and my experience, where we look together at what is happening to you. We will work on communication, handling conflict and each person’s boundaries, at a pace you can sustain.
From routines to plans
-
Manage your emotions
Learn to value your independence and to handle your emotions, easing the fear of being alone and of losing control of your life.
-
Understanding each other better
Work at functioning as a team that holds, including when you disagree, without comparing yourselves with other couples or depending on advice from outside.
-
Learn to communicate assertively
Learn to talk about what matters without it ending in an argument, saying what you feel and understanding what the other is saying.
-
Handling conflict effectively
Pick up tools for handling and reducing arguments, managing your emotions and keeping the distress from spilling over the relationship.
-
Get the spark back
Enjoy each other again. It is not about going back to the beginning, but about building what comes next.
Investing in yourself will always be worth it. Do not let this chance pass.
Couples therapist and sex therapist
David Puig
Hello, I am David Puig, a psychologist specialising in couples therapy and a sex therapist.
I work from the contextual therapies, with training in integrative couples therapy, Gestalt and EMDR. Beyond the training, my own experience has given me a close understanding of dependent attachments, and that lets me accompany people authentically.
From my practice in La Roca del Vallès, ten minutes from Granollers, I work with active listening, steadiness and calm, and without taking either side. Every case handled plainly and professionally.

What if we would rather not travel?
