Razzleberry,

My H and I see my T together for couples therapy now. However, it is clear that the goal is for us to be focused on strengthening our relationship.

We do not discuss "My" issues seeking another point of view. At first I was very reluctant to have H in the room but so far so good. (It's only been one time as an official couples session!)

So, yes the couples work does benefit me because I feel better about my relationship with H. But it's not like he walks in and we begin talking as if it were an individual session. In fact, there is almost no similarity between the two.
