  both partners to communicate effectively. The
  communication should not be abusive and the
  partners should not ridicule each other
  especially when they are expressing their
  feelings. The therapist may provide instructions
  to the couple with the aim of helping them
  understand the type of communication that will
  cause more conflicts and the type of
  communication which is effective. The couple will
  also get a chance to learn more empathically and
