In this day and age couples come in varying types and numbers

Relationship & couples counselling

Couples counselling is coming together to reset; to see where things took a turn and why? And what’s left, how has it ended up here? Working with an impartial, supportive and skilled relationship counsellor can help you see how you got to the position you’re in!
We can help you both understand, sexual or emotional indiscretion, stresses of work, life changing events/trauma; communication problems, or just not seeing life the same way anymore, drifting apart!.

Relationship issues we can help with

  • Marriage breakdowns
  • Infidelity / cheating
  • Mid-life crisis
  • Why do you feel this way?
  • Why have they done this to you?
  • What happened…

Life has a way of taking over and by the time you get chance to look up… years have gone by and your different people wanting different things…

Couples therapy focuses on creating a safe, non-judgemental space for people to freely express their own unique feelings and emotions and get a real understanding of what it is they want and letting go of the masks we all carry to be someone or something we are not, feeling we’re living someone else’s life… it’s about allowing yourself to understand who you are and saying what you want, together you will learn so much about each other and if it’s your choice you can try again from a new frame of reference, a new foundation to stand your relationship on.

Relationship counselling

We find that we are helping more and more people understand why some relationships they have can be at best challenging but at worst toxic. 

Coming together to look at the relationship from a new perspective and finding your voice with an impartial, supportive and skilled relationship counsellor in the room can help you understand what’s actually going on! With work we can rebuild a new respect/understanding for each other.
I can’t promise you will skip out of the office holding hands (that’s always the hope) but…
The hope is that you will gain a new found respect for the person and what they’re going through.

These can be ‘but not limited to’:
  • Fathers & Sons
  • Mothers & Daughters
  • Siblings
  • Family members
  • In-laws
  • Work colleagues

You will see what it is to Respond and not React
You will gain strategies to stop before it escalates
You will know how to ask “what are they trying to say”?
And say what you actually want to say… and feel like you’ve been heard.

Marriage Preparation Counselling

When people are coming together and contemplating/preparing for marriage it can be a little daunting. Whilst in the symbiotic stage (honeymoon phase) we are often just drawn along loving life our heartbeats and breathing synchronises, the body realises oxytocin and dopamine this level of intensity isn’t sustainable, this relationship symbiosis is normally replaced by the symbiosis between a mother and child but in this day and age we are finding it is hard even to hold on to it until then, in the fast moving over stimulated world.
We give little thought to what it is to actually live with someone? We can help you both learn to say what you need, to really listen to each other
Learn to contract with each other.
We can help you both understand, sexual or emotional indiscretion, stresses of work, life changing events/trauma; communication problems, or just not seeing life the same way anymore, drifting apart!.

Learning the expectations each other have of each other,

  • “My mum always cooked and cleaned and run my bath every night!” that’s your job now…
  • “Mum never complained when I went out every weekend with my friends” This is just me… you don’t love me if you’re trying to change me!!!

Unmet or unrealistic expectations are really bad at anytime but for new relationships they are disastrous.
We will work on creating a safe space (psychologically) for you both to have with each other so whenever you speak you feel you have been heard, we will work on active listening and how to say what you really want to say.
