Relationship counselling may help if you experience:
- Recurring conflict or communication breakdown
- Trust issues, jealousy, or ongoing resentment
- Feeling disconnected, lonely, or misunderstood
- Life transitions creating tension (new baby, work stress, moving, etc.)
- Considering separation or needing clarity about next steps
You don’t need to be in crisis to seek counselling. Many people attend therapy to better understand what’s happening and to develop healthier ways of coping.
How counselling can help with relationship
- Improve communication and conflict skills
- Clarify needs, boundaries, and expectations
- Rebuild trust and emotional connection
- Support decision-making during difficult transitions
Therapists may use approaches such as CBT, integrative counselling, psychodynamic therapy, or mindfulness-based techniques, depending on your needs.
What happens in your first session
- Talk through what’s been happening for you
- Discuss what support you’re looking for
- Ask questions about counselling and next steps
There is no obligation to continue. Finding the right therapist matters.
