Couples Therapy / Relationship Counselling
Couples therapy is a type of psychotherapy that supports romantic partners in resolving conflicts, improving communication and strengthening their relationship. It offers a neutral space where both individuals can express concerns, explore issues and work together toward healthier patterns and understanding.
Couples therapy helps partners identify unhelpful dynamics and emotional triggers. With the therapist’s guidance, they learn effective communication skills, conflict resolution strategies and ways to rebuild trust. The aim is to foster empathy, mutual respect and a deeper emotional connection.
Couples therapy is for any couple seeking support, whether experiencing conflict, struggling with intimacy, or navigating life changes. It can help married or unmarried partners, those considering separation, or couples simply wanting to strengthen their bond and grow together.
In a typical session, both partners share their perspectives while the therapist facilitates balanced, respectful conversation. The focus is on understanding emotions, exploring relationship patterns and developing practical tools for change. Sessions may also include exercises to practise at home between meetings.
