40 – Prenuptial and Couple Counseling in Nice: What Could Be Improved in Your Life?

Introduction

In a relationship, we often focus on the other person — what they should change, what bothers us in their behavior, what would be better “if only they would…”But what about ourselves? That quiet part of us that asks to be heard, soothed, transformed — or even revealed?

Prenuptial and Couple Counseling in Nice invites you to turn your gaze inward — not to judge yourself, but to recognize what, in your personal or relational life, needs attention and growth.Not to fit an external standard, but to rediscover inner peace, balance, and coherence.

CASE STUDY 1 – Clara and Ali: Always in the Noise

Clara loves when everything feels alive — loud music, parties, laughter, constant messages.Ali, more introverted, feels overwhelmed and drained. One day, during a session, he says:— “I need silence, Clara. And I’m afraid that’s incompatible with how you live.”

Clara is surprised. She realizes she has never learned to be alone. Noise and movement have become ways to avoid her own thoughts.She begins to understand that it isn’t Ali who needs to change… but her relationship with herself.

🔹 Lesson: Identify what, in your lifestyle or coping habits, prevents you from connecting deeply with yourself and others.

CASE STUDY 2 – Jonas and Lila: Wounded Self-Esteem

Jonas never feels “good enough” — not strong enough, not smart enough, not funny enough.Lila loves him but feels exhausted constantly reassuring him.— “You know you’re wonderful as you are, but if you don’t believe it yourself, there’s nothing I can do.”

Through therapy, Jonas realizes that this insecurity stems from his childhood, when more was always expected of him.He decides to start working on himself — not for Lila, but for his own peace.

🔹 Lesson: Improving your life isn’t about fixing a flaw to please someone else. It’s about turning your wounds into growth.

CASE STUDY 3 – Nadia and Pierre: Giving to Exist

Nadia is always there for others — helping, cooking, listening, organizing.But deep down, she’s exhausted. She gives to be seen, hoping that one day someone will care for her with the same intensity.The truth is, she never takes care of herself. She gives without refilling her own cup, and frustration slowly grows.

During counseling, she realizes she expects others to provide what she denies herself: rest, kindness, and tenderness.For her, change means learning to choose herself without guilt.

🔹 Lesson: When you forget yourself to be loved, you don’t really give — you drain yourself. True love includes self-care.

CASE STUDY 4 – Mathieu and Angel: Waiting for Motivation

Mathieu dreams of changing jobs, getting back into sports, learning guitar… but he never starts.He keeps postponing things, waiting for his partner to motivate or push him.Eventually, she grows tired of always being “the engine” of the couple.— “I love you, but I can’t want things for you.”

During counseling, Mathieu realizes he’s waiting to feel supported like a child who needs encouragement.He understands that true emotional maturity is to become the initiator of his own movement.

🔹 Lesson: Waiting for your partner to stimulate you keeps you stuck. Taking initiative brings you back into your own power.

Psychological and Theoretical Analysis

Carl Rogers, founder of person-centered therapy, emphasizes that unconditional self-acceptance is the foundation of lasting growth.We don’t change because we reject ourselves, but because we accept ourselves with gentleness.

Albert Bandura’s theory of self-efficacy shows that believing in your ability to change is essential for transformation.When people believe they can improve their lives, they engage more fully and persist longer.

Philosopher Michel Foucault described self-work as an act of freedom. To change is not to yield to pressure, but to align more closely with one’s authentic self.

Practical Exercises to Identify What Needs Improvement

Each week, write: “What bothered me about myself this week — and what does it reveal?”
Take a short “relational pause” to observe your habits and emotions outside the couple.
Ask your partner: “What do I do that hurts you or creates distance?”
Choose one small habit to transform (e.g., complaining at night, procrastinating in the morning, eating poorly).
Visualize your ideal self six months from now — what does that version of you already practice today?

Conclusion

Improving your life isn’t about perfection. It’s about getting closer to what makes you feel alive, present, and at peace. In a couple, this personal work is a quiet but powerful act of love.

Don’t let your unhealed parts steer the relationship.Offer your partner — and yourself — the most aligned, free, and peaceful version of who you are.
