Couples therapy, is a type of psychotherapy. Couples of all types can recognize and resolve conflicts to improve their relationships. Through couples counseling, you can make thoughtful decisions about rebuilding your relationship or going your separate ways. 

​

Whether you have the odd tiff, full-blown arguments or you have simply stopped having fun - very few relationships exist conflict-free. When this (one of our most important relationships) begins to falter, our health and happiness often suffers. Frustrations or hurtful feelings that stem from relationship problems can have a major impact on your life. You might find yourself thinking about the relationship a lot, or worried about how things are going to get better. At these times, couples who care about their relationships often seek outside support to repair their relationship. The process of therapy helps couples experience their partner on an emotional level.  While for many of us, our first instinct is to try and work through problems alone, it can be incredibly useful to seek outside help. 

​

When we have been in a relationship or marriage for a long time it can be easy to fall into a trap of not listening to the other person or not communicating our needs clearly. Sometimes talking to someone with no connection to yourself or your partner is all it takes for you to gain perspective. Our Boutique team of experts help couples find the change they need to live the lives they desire. We bridge the gap, together and provide a safe place to explore and thrive. We offer the chance to speak to someone with no preconceived notions of who you are as a couple, with the added bonus of having skills and training behind them to guide you through your concerns.

​

Our overarching goal of couples counseling is:

• Understand how external factors (i.e. family values, religion, lifestyle and culture) affect your relationship.

• Reflect on the past and how it operates in the present.

• Communicate in a more constructive way.

• Learn why arguments escalate.

• Negotiate and resolve conflicts where possible.
