A recent op-ed in The New York Times titled "The Futility of Couples Therapy" has sparked a lot of conversation. Maybe that's because we all know a couple who have tried therapy, or maybe we've even been that couple.
纽约时报最近一个名为“徒劳的夫妻治疗”的专栏引发了广泛讨论。也许是因为我们都认识一对接受过治疗的夫妻,或者甚至我们自己就是这样的夫妻之一。
We also know that while some unions are strengthened through some time on a therapist's couch, others fail. The author of the op-ed, Melissa Fletcher Stoeltje, was in the former category: Her marriage survived. And yet, the very title of the article suggests that the years she and her husband spent in therapy don't deserve credit for the fact that she and her husband are still together.
我们也知道尽管通过一段时间的治疗一些夫妻关系加强了,也有另一些失败了。专栏的作家Melissa Fletcher Stoeltje属于前者,她的婚姻被挽救了。但是她的文章却写道,她和她丈夫花在治疗上的时间并不值得赞扬,因为他们还依旧在一起。
Fletcher Stoeltje isn't the only one with mixed feelings. There have been numerous other articles debating the efficacy of couples therapy, including this one from 2017, and this one from 2005, which states that 25 percent of couples were worse off two years post-therapy than they were when they started, and that 38 percent of couples had divorced four years post-therapy.
