I think therapy is great because in large part it does teach you to communicate and perhaps not rug sweep valid thoughts and emotions.
However, part of evolving in therapy also means growing as person and gaining tools to resolve your conflicts internally. For example, if you suffer from low esteem, then therapy is not so your girlfriend can work around your esteem better, it is for you to learn how to let go of low self esteem.
Im not saying get over it or anything like that, but you go to therapy for you, not for your girlfriend.
