Expert Marriage Counselling in Brisbane
Making the choice to seek relationship support? You’re not alone. We are fortunate to work with a wide range of couples from across the lifespan and in all walks of life. If there’s something our clients have in common, it’s that they see the benefit of gaining new skills to face the challenges that life throws their way. A message that seems to have reached far and wide these days is that seeking help when in need is a sign of strength; and seeking some additional expertise for building or rebuilding a relationship is no exception. There are numerous benefits to marriage therapy, including working through conflict and strengthening your relationship. We offer face to face therapy from our location in New Farm, and all our therapists are based locally in Brisbane. Our professionals can provide you with the insights and skills needed to enrich your relationship.
Situations in which Marriage Therapy Can Help
While couples may seek out counselling for various reasons, consider these signs that you might benefit from relationship counselling sessions with our experienced practitioners.
There is a Breakdown in Communication
When couples stop openly sharing their feelings, unresolved issues can build up, leading to conflict and resentment. This breakdown in communication can make it difficult to have constructive conversations. Therapy provides a safe space to express your emotions, and our therapists can guide you in improving your communication skills.
Divergent Paths in Life
As individuals grow and change, their values and goals may also evolve. Ongoing discussions about these topics are essential. If you find yourselves constantly disagreeing on important matters such as family planning, parenting approaches, religious beliefs, or lifestyle choices, seeking marriage counselling with our Brisbane professionals can help navigate these differences.
Shared Experiences of Difficulty
Each person handles challenges differently, and experiencing a difficult event can strain a relationship. Whether you're facing financial struggles, health issues, or significant life changes, our counsellors are here to provide support during these trying times.
Recovering From Infidelity
When trust is shattered due to an affair, it affects commitment, communication, and connection. Both partners may feel shame and uncertainty about the future. Our therapists employ a Gottman-approved process that involves atonement, attunement, and attachment. This approach allows space to express pain, address disconnection, identify the underlying causes of the challenges, and create a plan for moving forward.
Seeking guidance and exploring the benefits of marriage counselling is valuable at any point in your relationship, regardless of whether you are navigating significant changes or proactively aiming to strengthen your bond for the long term.
