Scenario

When therapist couples get trapped in analyzing instead of feeling together

My wife and I are both therapists and we thought that would make us great at working through our own relationship issues, but instead we keep analyzing each other and using therapeutic language to avoid actually feeling things together. We're stuck in our heads about our marriage and I don't know how to just be present with each other anymore.

More people experience this than they realize.
