About

Relationships are hard – it's simple and yet so complicated. We are drawn to connection and belonging - it‘s in our DNA to seek out relationships as relational beings. Relationships can be a site of love, connection and joy; as well as a place for conflict, disconnection and discontent. Every single person will go through hard and tough challenges in their relationships. It doesn’t mean you don't have a good relationship or that you’re doing it wrong; it means you’re human. Couple’s counselling is aimed at supporting the relationship to navigate life’s changes and challenges – to create connection and safety within the relationship regardless of sexual orientation or marital status.  


It’s during these challenging times in relationships that can leave the people in the relationship feeling emotional discomfort, grieving, rejection, loneliness or fear, leaving you feeling overwhelmed, worried, anxious and depressed.

How does it work?

The goal of counselling is to help you get through the challenges you're currently facing while engaging in healthy coping skills. Some approaches and tactics that therapists use to support you not only through the hard transition but also to equip you for future challenges are: 

  • Identify values and remain connected to the values that are vital to you 

  • Begin to understand that change is life giving – change can be a positive experience  

  • Identify and express feelings  

  • Create meaning of your experiences 

  • Reframe your thoughts so that you feel empowered in your life 

  • Increase your window of tolerance for life’s discomfort 

  • Set boundaries and speak your truth 

  • Create realistic expectations  

  • Process your change in a safe and confidential space
