Marriage Counselling

There is a lack of communication: Insufficient communication can lead to a wide range of other issues. When couples stop sharing how they feel, resentment and unspoken struggles can build up under the surface resulting in bickering and fighting. You may then find it hard to communicate without the conversation having a negative tone. Therapy sessions can give you a safe space to share how you feel, and our therapists can teach you strategies to enhance your communication.

You want different things in life: People can change over the years, and you may find that you no longer agree on topics as initially in your relationship. Discussing your values and goals is an ongoing conversation that should be open to change. If you find yourself constantly disagreeing with your partner over issues such as having kids, how to raise kids, religious views or your lifestyle, you may benefit from marriage counselling with our Brisbane professionals.

You experienced something difficult together: Individuals deal with setbacks and struggles differently. Whether you’re facing a financial crisis, health issue, or a sudden significant life change, experiencing a challenging event can change the dynamic in your relationship. Our counsellors can support you through these difficult times.

Recovering from an affair. When trust is broken as the result of infidelity, commitment, communication and connection are also lost. For both partners, there can be a sense of shame surrounding infidelity, with neither party knowing how to move forward. Our therapists are trained in a Gottman-approved process that involves ‘atonement,’ ‘attunement’, and ‘attachment’, where there is space to express pain, address disconnection, and identify the root causes of the couple’s challenges and then plan the way forward.

Improve your relationship with an email course: Our 21 days to a more joyful relationship course is ideal for enhancing your communication, understanding, and appreciation for your partner. This course is suitable for couples wanting to reinforce the positive in their relationship.
