Couples Counselling

Couples counselling can help you to fully share your concerns, enable awareness, consider effects of attitudes and actions and discuss stratagies in moving forward.  My experience and approaches help you to work through any difficulties your relationship might be facing, whilst supporting your feelings of frustrations and anxieties throughout the process of therapy. 

Many relationships come under pressure causing complex behaviours and defence mechanisms to play out, affecting how we relate to each other. Loss of former ways of life, financial stress, extended family issues or mishearing, misunderstanding each other can cause tension that may escalate into crises point.

Sometimes socialisation can affect us as individuals,  permitting our thinking as truths.  Our beliefs and values can sometimes feel dismissed and not heard which can contribute to a break down in what once was a loving relationship.

Having a safe space to hear and understand each other, whilst gain a sense of what is affecting the relationship, can enable change and create awareness of each other's qualities.

Even if it is not dealing with any significant problems, rooted issues can lead to new problems. Sometimes it is just necessary to rediscover each others feelings with respectful understanding.

There are many reasons for couples seeking counselling such as:

• Life changing events
• Affairs
• Trust Issues
• Anger/abuse within the relationship
• Fear of commitment
• Intimacy issues & sexual dysfunction
• Difficulty in relating to each other
• Seperation
• Family difficulties/Illnesses
• Work related stress
• Control
• Over protectiveness
