Relationship & Couples Counselling
We take a positive approach when helping you with your relationship problems
It can be difficult not to feel negative about your relationship when you are experiencing many problems with it.
An important part of our couples counselling is to give each of you the opportunity to share the problems and issues for you in your relationship.
In helping you to resolve these problems, we find it is important for our approach to be as positive as possible.
We do this by focusing on a number of things:
We help you look at what dynamics you as a couple may have unwittingly fallen into, which can help take away the sense of blame that is easy to attribute entirely to your partner, so instead, the two of you can form an alliance in working on it.
Additionally, quite early in the process, we have you create your positive want list based on your issues, and in doing this, we are able to work with what you are wanting that will make your relationship great for you, providing a positive repairing of your relationship.
We also show you how to communicate more honestly and openly, encourage and nurture your romance, identify your love languages, make quality time together, and celebrate improvements together.
As you progress, good will and a deeper understanding between you and your partner can begin to grow, allowing you to rediscover a mutual appreciation of each other.
It is easy to feel hopeless when you are experiencing the negativity of relationship problems. We can show you that there IS hope for the future of your relationship.

Common Problems We Can Help You With:
