Couples counselling is variously referred to as couples therapy, marriage counselling, or relationship counselling. We see couples, whether married or de facto, in heterosexual or same sex relationships.
Couples counselling tends to focus on communication and negotiation. The therapist mainly works by slowing and deepening communication so each member of the couple fully understands the other's point of view. In couples counselling the therapist will invite you to address areas of conflict and dissatisfaction in your relationship and help you both to understand and resolve mal-adaptive behavioural, emotional, psychological and communication patterns.
