COUNSELLING FOR COUPLES

Relationships are one of the most important parts of the human experience.
Quality relationships build up our self-esteem, help us feel as though we can accomplish any goal, and maintain happiness even through the hard times.
Struggling relationships hurt our self-esteem, damage motivation, and make it hard to feel comfortable in our own home.

When a relationship is struggling, the instinct is often to run away. But difficult relationships can often be saved – provided both partners re-learn their love, their trust, and how to give of themselves in the relationship.

WHEN IS THE RIGHT TIME FOR COUPLES COUNSELLING

Couples counselling can always be valuable – even in healthy couples looking to make sure they have open communication and guidance. However, there are often signs that a relationship could benefit from outside help:

• When you feel like you’re always walking on eggshells.

• When you’re fighting with your partner in your mind, even when nothing happened.

• When your arguing is starting to affect the kids.

• When you would rather be out alone than go home to see your partner.

• When the idea of making love, being intimate, or being close isn’t enjoyable.

• When the trust is gone or you need to overcome a serious problem.

• When you’re always trying to change your partner, not yourself.

• When you’re ready to leave what was once a great relationship.

There are many different times when couples counselling could be beneficial, but the easiest is to simply ask yourself “does your relationship need help?” Often, it’s far too hard to change a struggling relationship without some type of guidance, because the two of you are too connected to your habits to make any changes without it.
