Relationship Counselling for Couples
I specialise in working with couples who are experiencing difficulties or simply want to breathe new life into their relationship.
Couples counselling southampton can help give you a better perspective of what is happening. Helping to recognise and figure out how obstacles to well being might best be resolved.
Neutral and Discreet
My practice provides a private and secure environment where difficult things can be said and heard safely. There is time in which events can be explored, consider why they are happening and to recognise the impact.
As a couples therapist my role is to work with you so you recognise the best outcomes for yourselves individually and for the relationship. I don’t take sides, judge, criticise or tell you what to do.
Couples therapy enables resolution of conflict and rebuilding of your relationship.
Finding Your Voice
Working with both individuals in the counselling session I encourage each person to be able say what is happening for them and what they are experiencing. Standing back, slowing down and thinking calmly brings clarity.
Importantly each person can benefit from identifying their unmet needs, wants and desires. Then to be able to consider how those needs might be met.
The Art of Listening and Acknowledging
This requires some give and take, sharing of thoughts and feelings. Couples can use the relationship therapy sessions to develop negotiation skills, recognise the importance of meeting own needs whilst learning about yourself and your partner.
Relationships in difficulty really can and often do benefit from couples counselling.
