When we experience relationship problems that we can’t solve, we can feel pain, loneliness and at times despair. Whatever relationship difficulties you are facing, couple/relationship counselling can help you understand why things may not be meeting your expectations.

For some, the suggestion of couples counselling is considered a "last resort" to save a relationship/marriage. While of course this is sometimes the case, you do not have to wait until things get that bad before experiencing couples counselling. Many couples use therapy sessions as a way to keep their relationship healthy and address any underlying concerns that may become conflicts in the future.

 

When we have been in a relationship or marriage for a long time it can be easy to fall into a trap of not listening to the other person or not communicating our needs clearly. Sometimes talking to someone with no connection to yourself or your partner is all it takes for you to gain perspective. What couples counselling offers here is the chance to speak to someone with no preconceived notions of who you are as a couple, with the added bonus of having skills and training behind them to guide you through your concerns.
