Relationship counselling can provide a safe space to explore and voice difficulties you may be experiencing as a couple. Often, effective communication has broken down, and couples therapy can work towards restoring this connection. My couples counselling training is based around the Gottman method, which focuses on strengthening relationships by improving communication and managing conflict effectively. Together, we can work through any areas of built-up resentment and work towards repair. This allows you to take away new skills to work through any future issues as a team.
