What exactly is a couple? The most popular answer would be: two people involved in a romantic relationship. However, that “romantic” label eliminates many non-romantic couples who are also in relationships. It’s normal to assume that couples therapy is only for romantic couples, but there are others who might also benefit from the experience. These people can be coworkers, cofounders, writing teams, bandmates, best friends, sisters, brothers, roommates, and other people involved in relationships who, while not the traditional client base for couples therapy, can also be in need of and benefit from the work and approach of traditional couples therapy.
