Couples Counselling

When difficulties arise in intimate relationships, it can be helpful to talk things through with a counsellor who is skilled in working with couples. In addition to providing confidential support at a time of enormous strain, a counsellor can help individuals and couples identify the pressure points in their relationship(s) and work through these in a safe setting.

Often, current relationships are affected by our experiences in the past and old patterns of relating that can be replayed with the most important people in our lives now. Sometimes outside factors like work, family values, finances and lifestyle can also affect close relationships.

Complex and painful experiences of betrayal, jealousy, lack of communication, sexuality and trust can likewise throw us off balance and push us away from the ones we love.

A couples counsellor will help you talk through past and present hurts, help to identify where things are going wrong, and work to enable you to face challenges in a more open and constructive way.
