Relationships can be quite the rollercoaster, filled with ups and downs that test even the strongest bonds. As a professional relationship counsellor, I can help you navigate the challenges, while assisting you to both re-discover each other and rekindle that spark that brought you together.
I am committed to assisting couples like you
in discussing concerns, overcoming tensions, and ultimately strengthening your partnership. Through my couples counselling services, available online or over the phone, I can help you address and resolve various concerns, including:
Certified in Level 1 Gottman Method Couples Therapy and actively pursuing a Masters of Counselling with the University of New England, you can feel confident engaging with an experienced professional.
Seeking help from a highly experienced marriage counsellor, such as myself, can bring about numerous benefits that can truly make a positive impact on your relationship. These include:
I can provide a safe space for you and your partner to express yourselves openly and honestly. Through guided conversations, you'll learn effective communication skills that can help you understand each other better and express your needs and concerns more clearly.
Every relationship faces conflicts, but knowing how to resolve them in a healthy way is crucial. I can teach you constructive conflict resolution techniques, helping you address disagreements while maintaining respect for each other's feelings.
Intimacy goes beyond the physical; it's about emotional closeness too. I can guide you in exploring ways to strengthen your emotional connection, reigniting the intimacy that might have faded over time.
Sometimes, you might get caught up in the same patterns and dynamics. As your relationship counsellor, I can bring an unbiased and outside perspective, helping you see issues from new angles and offering insights you might not have considered.
Through relationship counselling, I can help you and your partner identify areas for personal development, leading to a more fulfilling and well-rounded life.
You can expect a safe and confidential space to discuss your concerns, emotions, and experiences. I will guide you through conversations, provide insights, offer practical tools, and help you develop healthier patterns of communication and interaction.
The duration varies depending on the unique needs and circumstances of each couple. Some couples may see progress in a few sessions, while others may benefit from longer-term therapy. Get in touch today to determine the appropriate timeline for your counselling journey.
It is recommended that both partners attend relationship counselling sessions. This allows for open and honest communication, understanding from both perspectives, and collaboration towards resolving issues. However, individual sessions can also be beneficial in certain situations.
It's common for one partner to be hesitant initially, so it’s important to openly communicate your intentions and the potential benefits of counselling to your partner. Encourage them to attend an initial session or seek individual counselling to address any concerns or reservations they may have.
Discrepancies in relationship goals are not uncommon. Counselling can help facilitate open dialogue, explore individual desires, and work towards finding common ground or compromise. Honesty and active participation from both partners are crucial in this process.
If you're experiencing difficulties, conflicts, communication breakdowns, or simply feeling disconnected from your partner, marriage counselling can provide valuable insights, tools, and support to address these challenges and foster a healthier relationship.
Whether you are experiencing difficulties in your relationship, or you just want to improve your communication skills, Ocean Crest Counselling can help. Reach out today to book online marriage counselling.
