Most people don’t enjoy conflict or feel comfortable about the way they may behave during a fight with someone they love. Couples can find themselves trapped in unwanted patterns of behaviour: criticising, blaming, becoming defensive, withdrawing into silence, avoiding issues or going over the same ground repeatedly but getting nowhere. Counselling can help you learn more effective communication skills and ways to resolve conflict - both of which are essential for a successful relationship.
Relationship counselling can also help individuals, including people who have difficulty finding a partner to have a relationship with.
Relationship Counselling
Couples may need to
examine how or whether to take the next “big step”, such as moving in
together, buying property, contemplating marriage or a commitment
ceremony, or having a child. Other situations that bring people to
therapy include marital distress, when one or both partners are unhappy
about aspects of their relationship or when couples are considering
separating. Counselling can also help people in relationships who would
like to attend on an individual basis rather than bringing their
partner.
Family Therapy
When one family member experiences
physical or emotional pain, it is liable, one way or another, to impact
on the family as a whole. As with couples, families may also end up
stuck in patterns of behaviour that lead to conflict. Through supportive
and respectful counselling, it is possible to change these patterns. All
families are different, as are the individuals within them. Therapy can
help people within families understand their own and other’s responses,
and create relationships they feel loved and supported in.
