Marriage / Pre-marital Counselling

 

What is marriage / relationship counselling?

 

Marriage / relationship counselling addresses issues and problems which arise from adult intimate relationships.  Marriage / relationship counselling can help couples:

 

  • To acknowledge and address destructive patterns of relating

  • To improve communication 

  • To acknowledge and reconcile differences

  • To learn conflict and emotions management skills

  • To examine the impact of change and loss

  • To acknowledge abusive relationships and domestic violence

  • To understand how their family of origin and past experiences can impact on their way of relating

 

It is normal for relationships to go through cycles of ups and downs.  Trust and intimacy forms the basis of healthy and stable relationships. However, when trust and love is replaced by resentment and anger, both the relationships and the individuals would suffer. The marital problems would be complicated if there are young children involved.  


 

Indications of marital / relationship problems

 

  • Personality clashes

  • Suspected or actual extramarital affairs

  • Domestic violence

  • Breakdown of communication

  • The bond of trust is eroded or broken

  • Arguments persist without resolution

  • Depression or other health problems

  • Vast differences in parenting style and approach

  • Sex has stopped or caused problems

 

When is the right time for Marriage / Relationship Counselling?

  • Arguments continue and parties cannot find ways to resolve
