Marriage & Relationship Counselling
Every marriage and relationship runs in to difficulty at some point. Some periods of time are more difficult for a couple than others.
External factors such as children, financial pressures, infidelity, and family stress can drastically alter the dynamic of a couple.
Even more importantly are the historical experiences of each partner. Previous events shape us all, creating conditions for any future relationships and sexual encounters.

How Couples Therapy Helps
Working in tandem with a professional couple’s therapist can help to identify and articulate difficulties in a relationship.
Couples counselling is not about introducing a judge or referee. Neither is it to attempt to keep a couple together relentlessly.
Instead, the aim is to acknowledge and work on emotional difficulties experienced in a relationship. Moving couples forward in whatever way they can.
Although the ideal situation is to meet your couples therapist in person, we also offer online couples therapy for people who might find it more difficult to meet in person.
