As “intimacy junkies,” therapists can move too fast into intimacy while ignoring daily life battles that need to be cleaned up before the couple can go deeper. Related, we need to be aware with hard work, in some sessions, we can facilitate intimate interactions between the spouses, but rarely does that flow back to their regular life if we have not attended to basic inclusion issues in their relationship.  They have a sugar high that doesn’t last, but we can be fooled into think that something lasting has occurred.
