I'm currently a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, licensed to do Psychotherapy in New York State. My view of therapy tends to be nonconventional. I do not believe in the "Diagnosis" as much as I believe in helping people find a meaningful way of approaching their lives and being able to "sit" with their emotions rather than thinking of themselves in terms of a "mental disorder".
Modern Medicine and Insurance companies are "Quick to label" clients, leaving the individual with a "Text-Book" definition of their struggles. Fortunately folks are more than a "text-book definition", and have their own personal life stories which play a major role in defining who they are and how they got to the place where they are at. I believe spiritual issues can play a part in emotional healing.
A good match between client and therapist is essential if psychotherapy is to have a beneficial outcome. I have been in private practice for over 15 years. My approach is individualized and I frequently meet for an initial consultation so people can get a feel for what therapy is all about.

Becoming critical of my partner, and worse yet, describing him or her in not so lovable terms, i.e.
Avoid becoming a "controller".
Being a "control freak" might work in guiding your own life, bet when if one attempts to control their partner, things become problematic.
Try loosening the reigns, and see if your partner doesn't respond in a positive way.
Being open and transparent with your partner is the essence of a relationship and what love is built upon.
Probably one of the best predictors that the relationship is moving off course is when we start "keeping secrets" from each other.
