Friendship Therapy

Friendship therapy is a specialized form of counseling focused on improving relationships between friends. It provides a supportive and confidential space for friends to address conflicts, enhance communication, and strengthen their bond.

Friends Having Fun
At BSTC, we offer friendship therapy sessions tailored to address various challenges, including:

Unresolved conflict: friends may experience conflicts that remain unresolved, leading to tension and distance in the relationship. In therapy, we help friends identify the root causes of conflicts, explore different perspectives, and work towards finding mutually satisfying resolutions.


Working through conflict: conflict is a natural part of any friendship, but learning how to navigate it effectively is crucial for maintaining a healthy relationship. Friendship therapy sessions focus on developing conflict resolution skills, such as active listening, expressing emotions constructively, and negotiating compromises.


Improving communication styles: effective communication is essential for building and maintaining strong friendships. Therapy sessions offer opportunities for friends to practice and improve their communication skills, including assertiveness, empathy, and
setting boundaries. By enhancing communication, friends can deepen their understanding and connection with each other.


Through tailored sessions lasting 45 to 60 minutes, our friendship therapy sessions offer a structured and supportive environment for friends to address their concerns and work towards positive change. These sessions are not covered by insurance, but they provide an opportunity for friends to invest in their relationship and well-being.


Our therapist utilizes evidence-based techniques and a compassionate approach to guide friends in navigating challenges and fostering a more fulfilling friendship. Whether you're facing conflicts, seeking to strengthen your bond, or addressing past traumas, friendship therapy offers a proactive and collaborative approach to support the growth and resilience of your friendship.
