Relationships and Couples Counselling
Holistic counselling for couples ready to create lasting changes together.
Counselling for couples who want to transform their relationship
Does your relationship need help?
Couples seek counselling support for many reasons.
You might be:
- having recurring arguments that never seem to resolve
- feeling disconnected or that you’ve lost touch with each other
- struggling with differences around parenting
- navigating a major life change or illness
- trying to rebuild trust after a betrayal or difficult experience
- wanting to communicate and understand each other better
You don’t have to wait until your relationship is in crisis to seek support.
Sometimes it’s just enough to have a vague feeling of unease, sensing that things just don’t feel “right”.
We see the world through the lens of our own experiences
Often what you think you’re arguing about is actually triggered by earlier unhealed wounds, often coming from childhood .
Using Process-oriented Psychology (Processwork), I help you to slow things down, explore what is happening in the moment and understand the hidden patterns that may be getting in the way of your connection.
My role isn’t to take sides or decide who is right. I offer a facilitated space where both of you can be heard, understood and supported to see the world from each other’s perspective.
My relationship work is informed by Gottman Method training, attachment-based training and relationship work with Terry Real and Thomas Hubl.
This is supported by more than 20 years of studying how our early development can have an impact throughout life.
How we work together
Your first session is usually 90 minutes, giving us time to get to know each other, understand your relationship and explore what has brought you to counselling.
I usually suggest following this with several ongoing sessions, where we can continue to process concerns raised in your initial session.
Subsequent sessions usually focus on a particular issue that couples bring with them, often something that has surfaced since the last visit.
Couples often find that 3 or 4 sessions are enough to start with, returning from time to time, when something new arises.
Following counselling, couples usually find that:
- their relationship deepens over time
- they feel closer and more aligned
- are able to support each other more fully
- they communicate better
- are able to resolve conflict more easily
Couples and Relationship Counselling sessions are available in person in Moruya on the NSW south coast, and online Australia-wide.
