Relationship counselling services

Personal to you

Just as everyone is individual and unique, so is each relationship. Perhaps you and your partner have been together for decades, or maybe you’re just in the early stages of your relationship. Any relationship can need outside guidance and advice at some point along the road. It might be that one of you is going through a particularly difficult period, which is affecting your relationship. Or maybe you feel that you have grown apart after many years together, and want help rekindling your love. An experienced marriage and relationship counsellor can help you navigate through any challenges that you’re facing. Find a professional counsellor who can offer the support and guidance that you need.

Family counselling

Often, difficulties in one relationship can spill over into others. It's not unusual for issues between a couple to affect the relationships with their family. It might be that you're going through a divorce or separation. Or maybe you're going through a difficult time as a family, such as in times of grief. You and your partner could be experiencing a breakdown in your relationship, which is affecting your children and loved ones. Marriage and family counselling can help you to navigate through these challenging periods. A professional relationship therapist can assist every family member in talking about and reflecting upon how they're feeling, helping everyone move towards a positive end result.

Trusted professionals

When you’re looking to improve or rescue the relationships that mean the most to you, you’ll want to receive advice from the best. Talking to a relationship or marriage counsellor allows both parties to voice their feelings and any concerns that they have in a safe and neutral space. They will provide an outsider perspective on the problems that you’re experiencing, helping you to move forward and agree on practical solutions. Whatever your reason for seeking relationship guidance, your therapist will be able to provide you with expert advice.

How often do your clients have therapy sessions?

It depends entirely on the client and the type of therapy session that they want. For example, it’s normal to have telephone or online counselling sessions more frequently, say once a week. Whereas face-to-face counselling sessions might be less often, maybe every two weeks or once a month. If they wish, clients can use a mixture of counselling session types. This is a good way to get the benefits of each type if they cannot fit in a weekly face-to-face session. Normally, a weekly session is recommended at first. But the sessions can become less frequent as the couples work through their problems.

How many sessions are recommended?

Again, it’s different for each relationship. Some people only need a few sessions to resolve their issues. Whereas for some couples who may be married and have a family together, it could take longer. This is because there are other people to consider. Each talking point may have different implications for their family, so can take longer to work through. Normally, I'll complete six sessions with my clients before doing a review. This is when we'll discuss whether they feel the need to continue with the sessions or not.

Do both parties need to be in the session each time?

It’s not essential that both parties are present at every session. If each person has their own issues which are affecting their relationship, then individual sessions can be really useful. But for the most part, it's best if both parties attend every time, as it's the best way for them to work through their issues together. Coming to the sessions together often encourages people to listen to each other in a calm and proactive way. This can have a really positive impact on their everyday interactions with each other.

Erica has been my counsellor for 3 and a bit years. I have received so much guidance as a man. From growth and development to maturity and wisdom. I have had problems with self esteem and guiding myself through everyday challenges, Erica over the years has given me the appropriate tools to help me become more stronger and have better confidence. It goes to show you just need the right one to understand you and get you from the beginning. Very grateful and I still take sessions with her when I can. I would recommend her as a counsellor for any person of any situation. She even has created her own book too.

Levi was excellent at helping me understand what I was thinking and experiencing, and in giving me practical ways to make sense of things. I really appreciated his calmness, clarity and perspective, and I highly recommend him.

We'd gone from being really nice to each other to complacent to ambivalent to actually not nice to each other. I couldn't even remember how long it had been like that. It felt like we were just tolerating each other, and a lot of resentment had built up over time from both sides that had been left unspoken. I'd come home and see his car there and feel like, oh. He would never ask me how my day was, even if I'd ask him. I was confused as to how I felt about him. Everything felt really topsy-turvy, even though nothing major had changed or happened; there was no event or anything. It was just, this isn't doing it for me anymore. The moment that stuck with me was realising what I actually wasn't getting in my relationship: someone who would actually listen to me and be interested in what I was doing, even the most benign thing, someone who genuinely wanted to know more and was so supportive. I've gotten to know myself so much better, all the different bits of me and what makes me different, and realising that everyone else is different too. I just thought everyone was like me. We would always talk about how I need to be cherished and put on a pedestal. Now he'll just come up to me, give me a big hug, and be like, "I love you so much." I feel so much more drawn to him now, and I'm looking forward to our next holiday. This work illuminates all the things you know, deep down, that have been simmering under the surface, and it releases a lot of the shame. Needing to be cherished felt so ridiculous and stupid to admit. Turns out, no, I do like to feel like that, and that's okay.
