What is Couples Counselling?

Couples counselling, also known as marriage or relationship therapy, is a specialized form of counselling designed to help couples navigate the challenges and complexities that can arise in intimate relationships. It provides a safe and supportive environment where couples can explore their issues, communicate more effectively, and work together to create positive changes in their relationship.

How Couples Counselling Works

The process of couples counselling typically begins with an initial assessment, during which the therapist gathers information about the couple’s history, current challenges, and goals for therapy. This assessment helps the therapist to tailor the treatment plan to the specific needs of the couple.

Couples then attend sessions together, where they engage in open and honest conversations under the guidance of the therapist. The therapist facilitates communication and helps each partner to express their thoughts, feelings, and concerns in a constructive manner. Through active listening and empathy, the therapist fosters a safe space for both partners to be heard and understood.
