Couples & Individual Counselling
A collaborative process of transformation
Welcome to Together Counselling
We all want more from our relationships than just meeting each other’s basic needs: we seek connection, support and personal growth.
In fact, relationships are at the heart of our existence. Being in a joyful relationship makes our life more radiant, and has a strong positive correlation with good mental and physical health. Partnership offers a secure base, a place where we feel loved and cared for.
Navigating our complex world can burden our relationships with stress and hurt, and it can be a struggle to undertake and resolve these challenges together. Since we all hope for a fulfilling relationship, we can feel powerless and despondent if our daily experience is far from our true desire. As you read this, you might be feeling the pain and loneliness of a troubled relationship. You might be wondering: ‘Is there an easier way to do relationships?’ or ‘What am I doing wrong?”
Working Together
Luckily, there are many ways and tools that can help us to grow and transform our relationships.
Couples counselling is an effective and powerful way to work towards:
-
effectively communicating, so that you and your partner feel heard and seen
-
being equipped to hold difficult conversations and reduce conflict
-
recovering and raising from major relationship breakdown
-
rediscovering the joy you shared with your partner
As your counsellor, my ultimate goal is always to help you restore and deepen your connection with your partner.
When should we seek help?
-
Do you feel unseen, misunderstood or unappreciated?
-
Are you struggling in a lonely disconnected relationship?
-
Do you want to explore and maximize your relationship potential?
-
Have you experienced a major rupture like an affair?
-
Are you single and want to learn how to be in a healthy, fulfilling relationship?

If you’re suffering, it’s time to get some help.
While crises and difficulties are painful and trying, they can also offer opportunities for personal and relationship growth. Research shows that working with a specialist couples counsellor has significantly better results than trying on your own.
Timing is essential
There's no need to wait until we’re in crisis mode to come to therapy.
Rather than viewing counselling as a last resort, look at it as the strong foundation to build your relationship on.
According to relationship expert Dr. John Gottman, couples endure an average of six years of being unhappy before getting help. That is six years of built-up resentment before they start addressing the issues. Most relationship problems start small and then grow in size until they get resolved.
