During an <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>earance on <em>This Morning<\/em> Wednesday, the<em> Veronica Mars<\/em> alum expressed how important it was to the pair to be open about their relationship issues, expressing:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe\u2019re more just honest, like it felt very inauthentic to pretend like it\u2019s easy because it\u2019s not. It is so hard.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Speaking on the need to get outside help in order to get past a \u201cturbulent\u201d couple of years, she continued:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe met, we fell in love, we\u2019re both very stubborn people and year one and two were turbulent, and we thought we need outside opinions. We need a bigger toolbox. Everyone\u2019s born with a little toolbox. So we went to therapy and learned how to disagree but still love each other.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Related: What?! Dax Shepard Dated Ashley Olsen Before Kristen Bell!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Love that!<\/p>\n<p>As for what went down during their sessions? Dax went on to explain that when they went for the first time, the therapist quickly discovered an \u201cembarrassingly simple\u201d reason for all of their problems:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThis gentleman listened to us arguing for six minutes, and he goes: \u2018Okay I know exactly what\u2019s going on. You\u2019re an ex-dirtbag. You always think you\u2019re in trouble. You get quiet with depression, and when you\u2019re quiet, he thinks he\u2019s in trouble, and the whole thing blows up.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Kristen then admitted that they also wanted to \u201cplease\u201d their therapist at the time:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI think also our desire to have this particular therapist tell each of us that we\u2019re right. We were looking for vindication, both of us. We were like, \u2018Well, he\u2019s just going to finally tell him what he needs to know.\u2019 And the therapist listened to us, and the therapist went: \u2018Woah do you guys hear yourselves? Oh my god,\u2019 and we were both so offended and asked for notes, like how do we improve. We\u2019re really striving to please the therapist.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The <em>Armchair Expert<\/em> podcast host agreed, saying:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe wanted the therapist\u2019s approval.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>When hosts<strong> Phillip Schofield<\/strong> and <strong>Holly Willoughby<\/strong> applauded the two for being so honest about seeking help for the issues within their marriage, Dax said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI wanna say we are ten years ahead just simply because ten years ago, people didn\u2019t talk about it openly then, but our thing was people hashtag on <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social media<\/a> #relationship goals, and we were afraid someone will think they\u2019ll meet their Kristen Bell and it\u2019s just gonna be easy. So we wanted to say it\u2019s awesome but requires daily work.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The 41-year-old actress then noted that a successful marriage is a lot like trying to work for a \u201csix-pack,\u201d explaining:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIt\u2019s like going to the gym. If you want to go to the gym if you want a six pack you have to do the work. I personally, I am not at all embarrassed to go to therapy. I almost feel if you\u2019re not in therapy that\u2019s embarrassing.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Despite what may go on inside their home, Dax revealed elsewhere in the interview that when it comes to working together on set, it is quite \u201charmonious\u201d between them:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThe marriage is a disaster, but when we work together its harmonious. In truth, we fight over what we\u2019re having for dinner, but when we\u2019re shooting a movie together or anything together professionally, we have the exact same goal, which is rare. Most couples don\u2019t get to have the exact same role. For us, it\u2019s awesome.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Okay, we know Kristen and Dax don\u2019t like the term \u201crelationship goals,\u201d but we cannot deny that they have been such a great example for other couples, thanks to their vulnerable conversations about marriage and therapy like this!
