I'd agree with kimmydawn. In fact, I thought most therapists saw people either for couples or for individual but not both. But I guess it varies. I think it'd be hard to do both with the same person because you might feel less free to discuss some things in individual therapy, especially if you wanted to discuss things that weren't going well in your relationship but that you weren't ready to work on in couples therapy. That's just me though. I couldn't stand the thought of my therapist interacting with another significant relationship in my life. I think I'd suddenly feel less free to talk to him.
