Emotion-focused couples therapy helps couples recognise and express the deeper feelings behind conflicts. Instead of assigning blame, the focus is on connection, vulnerability and emotional security. This creates space for genuine connection and healing.
Couples therapy Vienna 1140: for greater connection
For a secure, strong bond
A relationship should be like a safe base camp – a place of comfort, warmth, understanding and shared experiences. A space where both partners can recharge their batteries so that they can go out into the world feeling stronger and more connected. In couples therapy, I help you not only to cope with life’s challenges, but to overcome them as a team, consciously and with emotional depth.
My therapeutic approach is mindful, resource-oriented and supportive – so that you both feel seen, understood and strengthened at every step of the process.
Emotional attentiveness
Learn to deepen moments of genuine connection by engaging with emotional presence and openness.
Emotional flexibility
Learn to be emotionally flexible, to treat others with inner balance and to respond with genuine empathy.
Emotional Commitment
Learning to trust and become trustworthy in order to deepen connection and emotional security in relationships.
How does couples therapy help?
Couples therapy Vienna 1140: When relationships become challenging
Couples therapy in Vienna 1140 is aimed at couples who find themselves in emotionally stressful situations – for example, due to recurring conflicts, communication problems, hurt feelings or the feeling of growing apart. Unlike relationship coaching, the focus here is not on refining a stable relationship, but on working through relationship injuries, breaking stressful patterns and restoring emotional security.
Therapy creates a safe space where even difficult topics such as withdrawal, fear of commitment or old wounds can be addressed. The aim is not only to understand, but also to experience new emotions that enable a deeper connection.
I work with an emotion-focused and hypnosystemic approach that takes both conscious and unconscious processes into account. In doing so, I support you in recognising your inner reaction patterns, understanding your attachment needs and working together to find new ways to better reach and support each other.
Couples therapy is not a sign of failure – it is a courageous step towards reconnecting as a couple and growing together.
Couples therapy Vienna 1140 – Focus groups
Couples therapy in 1140 Vienna is aimed at couples who find themselves in stressful or deadlocked relationship situations and long for a deeper emotional connection. It offers a safe space where problems can be discussed and feelings can be heard and understood.
Unlike relationship coaching, which is primarily resource-oriented and future-focused, couples therapy deals with emotional wounds, long-standing conflicts and inner relationship patterns. It helps couples not only to understand each other better, but also to feel each other again.
🧩 Couples in crisis
If your relationship is characterised by constant tension, withdrawal or escalations, couples therapy can help you recognise underlying emotions, desires and old patterns. It creates space for honest conversations in which pain and hope can coexist – for example, after a breach of trust, when considering separation or in cases of emotional alienation.
🗣️ Couples with communication problems
Misunderstandings, accusations or the feeling of not being heard put a strain on many relationships. In couples therapy, you will learn to reflect on your communication and express your emotions and needs more clearly and confidently. This will restore a dialogue that creates connection rather than distance – even if your conversations have previously been fruitless.
😟 People with commitment issues or fear of loss
When closeness causes anxiety or loss is imminent, we often react by withdrawing, controlling or adapting. Couples therapy provides a space to recognise these fears and develop new relationship patterns together – with the aim of providing mutual security and allowing genuine closeness.
🔄 Couples in transitional phases
Life changes such as parenthood, moving house, career changes or retirement often put relationships to the test. At my couples therapy practice in Vienna 1140, I help you consciously shape these transitions – with emotional clarity, mutual understanding and the courage to grow as a couple.
The topics I cover in couples therapy in Vienna 1140 are diverse. In addition to the topics in the image above, there are also many other relevant topics, such as closeness and distance; conflicts and escalation; trust and hurt; sexuality and intimacy; thoughts of separation; who is allowed to make which decisions?
Couples Therapy vs. Relationship Coaching – What’s the Difference?
Relationship coaching is particularly suitable for couples who want to actively shape and strengthen their relationship – for example, through better communication, greater intimacy or clarifying shared goals. It is solution-oriented and forward-looking.
Couples therapy, on the other hand, is recommended when the relationship is strained by underlying conflicts, emotional wounds or recurring patterns. It provides professional support in working through and changing these issues – with a focus on emotional security, connection and healing.
Couples Therapy Vienna 1140 – My Approach
Whether you are in an acute crisis, have grown apart, or want to consciously develop your relationship further, my approach to couples therapy will help you reconnect with yourself, your partner, and what makes your relationship alive.
Emotionally focused and hypnosystemic
In my couples therapy practice in Vienna 1140, I support couples using a hypnosystemic and emotion-focused approach. This means that I work with both the conscious and unconscious levels of the relationship – with what is said and what can be sensed beneath the surface.
I see couples therapy as a space where both partners are welcome with their individual experiences, inner images and emotional needs. It is not about who is “right”, but about what touches us deeply – and how this can lead to a new connection.
What distinguishes my approach:
🔑 Emotionally focused
Feelings such as hurt, longing, anger or fear are often the key to deeper understanding. I support you in perceiving, expressing and exploring these emotions together.
🌀 Hypnosystemic work
I incorporate unconscious processes, inner images and resources – for example, through imagination exercises, changes of perspective or mindful body awareness.
🌐 Systemic perspective
Every relationship is embedded in a larger whole – families of origin, stages of life, role models. These contexts are incorporated into the work.
🛡️ Safe space for both partners
I make sure that both partners are heard and seen equally – even if the topics are painful or complex.
🌱 Solution-oriented with depth
Change does not come about through pressure, but through new inner movements. I will accompany you in developing sustainable steps that feel right for you.
