Co - Therapy

Combined treatment - healing together

CoTherapy with Sharona and Yoav

The combined treatment is an innovative approach to couple counseling. Instead of meeting one therapist at each meeting, you will meet together with both of us - Sharona and Yoav.

In these meetings you will receive the perceptions and support of both of us for the challenges and complexity of your relationship.

This double vision can create a more balanced environment for your consultation sessions, which promotes comfort and safety in the treatment room. Partnership care promotes effective change and long-term support that strengthens your relationship and provides a support experience for each and every one of those involved.

Why combined treatment?

As is also true when working with any of the AltCtrLife therapists.

Our integrated care approach where we demonstrate our transparency and personal experience to patients. The combined treatment is one of the ways in which we really stand behind this value.

Yoav and Sharona know firsthand the challenges of managing and maintaining a complex and intimate relationship. They draw on their personal experience as partners to help patients feel comfortable and confident in exploring their personal relationships.

In addition to increasing safety and comfort in the treatment environment for the patients, there are many advantages to treatment in partnership with Sharona and Yoav:

We don't just work hard to maintain a successful relationship - we work together every day, so we have the knowledge, experience and passion to help people build and maintain strong relationships.

We also understand how difficult it is!

For many, the approach of the combined treatment seems more balanced and natural. Partnership therapy promotes a sense of equality in the therapeutic relationship, allowing you to avoid a sense of competition for attention or someone feeling that they are in an unbalanced position.

Sharona and Yoav demonstrate effective communication together with you. See us not always agree and consider additional perspectives in real time, to serve your relationship.

This of course also includes bringing humor and playfulness into the room - because we believe in the importance of lightness as part of facing obstacles and improving relationships.

how does it work

We use the trauma-informed couples therapy approach and intimate communication. The treatment sessions focus on identifying and treating trauma and communication problems between couples. Each of us carries trauma from the past, and this can affect our communication and relationships. During treatment, we promote open and close communication to help couples connect and move forward together. We focus on identifying and treating trauma to help couples overcome their difficulties and start moving forward together. In addition, we promote closer communication and encourage openness and honesty to help couples connect and move forward together in the right way.

Couples counseling - couples therapy

Our integrative therapeutic approach is especially suited for couples who:

  • Feel "stuck" or that previous therapies haven't brought the desired change.

  • Experience deep communication difficulties, recurring conflicts, or emotional disconnection.

  • Seek a therapeutic environment that feels balanced and equally supportive of both partners.

  • Sense that personal struggles or past traumas are affecting their relationship.

  • Are looking for a dynamic, in-depth, integrative, and creative approach to relationship growth and healing.

  • Are open to learning and practicing new, connecting ways of communication.
