Relationship or Couples Therapy
A romantic relationship is one of the most intimate and powerful experiences we can have. Choosing a partner and staying together through life's ups and downs is rarely simple. Loving someone doesn’t mean you love their responses or behaviours.
Everyone finds themselves in occasional conflict in their relationships. We depend on our ability to communicate our thoughts and feelings, in order to express ourselves and negotiate the way through. Whether you’ve lost the fun element in your relationship, fund yourself regularly bickering or having intense arguments, are unfaithful yourself or find out your partner is unfaithful in some way - it’s natural to start to question one’s commitment to the relationship.
Everyone’s instinct is to try and work through the problems alone and in complete privacy. However, often it is exhausting and overwhelming, and ends up with couples experiencing even more conflict, sadness, fear and anger. It can be incredibly reassuring and helpful to seek professional support from someone who is accustomed to dealing with all kinds of challenges and life events in peoples’ lives. The therapist will have the skills to help all individuals feel safe, heard and valued, whilst managing the presenting problems and crises.
