THE FYX 160: How to Make Strong Relationships Stronger with Jessica Holton of Ours Couples Therapy

We're no strangers to understanding health from a holistic approach here on The FYX, so this week we're diving even deeper into relationship health--and bringing you an innovative voice in the world of couples therapy with CEO and Co-Founder of Ours Couples Therapy, Jessica Holton. Our is a virtual couples therapy platform on a mission to reduce the stigma around relationship wellness and make the counseling process engaging, straightforward, and even enjoyable. Jessica became interested in the space when she and her then-boyfriend, now-husband, were seeking out a couples therapist--but kept running into barriers along the way. Jessica wanted to create a new, modernized view of couples therapy that was easy to access (logistically and conceptually), and could meet couples exactly where they were at--whether to strengthen an already thriving bond, or address pain points.
In this episode, Krysta and Jessica discuss:
-The benefits of proactively seeking couples therapy--before there is specific tension or friction in the relationship
-How the person you spend your life with is one of the biggest indicators of physical, financial, and emotional well-being and success
-How to word and ask different types of questions to your partner to avoid resentment and improve communication
-Some of the challenges associated with traditional methods of finding a therapist who is the right fit for your needs
-How Ours approaches couples therapy with different tools that makes the experience more fun, like card decks for couples to complete together
-How Ours ensures a high quality experience for couples in a world where some virtual therapy experiences are less-than-stellar
