Following through on setting up a first couples therapy session with your partner can be tough. Everyone gets there differently. Sometimes you both don’t know what else to do and signing up together is easier. When only one of you feels that the relationship needs guidance it can be harder.
Many times people go to individual therapy because of their relationship. With most of those cases, unless someone is trying to break-up, participating in the couples work together would be more beneficial.
If you feel you need more support, let your partner know. That’s it. You need support in your experience and you want your partner to be there. Getting this support now would be better than letting something turn into a crisis later.
