'Paartherapie' (couples therapy) is made up of 'Paar' (couple) and 'Therapie' (therapy). The base word 'Therapie' (therapy) shows that it involves professional treatment, which here is intended for a couple.
Das Paar hat sich gemeinsam für eine Paartherapie entschieden.
The couple decided to go to couples therapy together.
Common collocations include 'eine Paartherapie beginnen' (to begin couples therapy), 'eine Paartherapie machen' (to undergo couples therapy), and 'eine Paartherapie in Anspruch nehmen' (to seek couples therapy). 'Zu einer Paartherapie gehen' (to go to couples therapy) is also a common sentence pattern.
Nach der Krise wollten sie eine Paartherapie beginnen.
After the crisis, they wanted to begin couples therapy.
'Paartherapie' (couples therapy) usually refers to a longer process, so verbs such as 'beginnen' (to begin), 'fortsetzen' (to continue), or 'beenden' (to end) are often used with it.
Nach mehreren Monaten konnten sie ihre Paartherapie erfolgreich beenden.
After several months, they were able to successfully end their couples therapy.
