Couples Counselling

Most couples reach points where they feel stuck, distant, or caught in the same arguments. Whether you are dealing with communication problems, a loss of intimacy, a breach of trust or infidelity, or simply feeling that you have grown apart, counselling gives you a calm, neutral space to understand what is happening and to relate to each other in a way that works better for both of you.

​

WHAT COUPLES COME TO SEE ME ABOUT​

​

• Is the communication with your partner difficult?
   

• Are you wondering if you are right for each other, or that you may have grown apart?

​

• Are you thinking you might have grown apart over the time?
   

• Has there been a lack of intimacy and/or sex?
   

• Is either of you attracted to someone else?

​

• Is your partner attracted to someone else other than you?
   

• Are you concerned about issues of control (physical, mental, emotional)?
   

• Do you not agree with your partner's parenting style?
   

• Does your partner seem "married" to their work or hobby, leaving you feeling neglected?

​

THE MOST COMMON ISSUE IS COMMUNICATION​

​

• The number one reason couples seek counselling is communication. Usually it is not about talking too little, but about feeling unheard, dismissed or misunderstood. A large part of our work is helping each of you feel heard and understood again.

​

WILL YOU TAKE SIDES?

​

• No. My role is not to decide who is right or wrong. It is to help both of you see the patterns you are caught in and find a way forward together.

​

DOES COUPLES COUNSELLING WORK?

​

• The evidence on couples counselling is encouraging, and most couples report meaningful improvement, especially when they start sooner rather than later and both partners engage honestly. Even if you come on your own, you can still make real changes to how a relationship feels.
