Rebuild a healthy relationship with couples counselling | Tweed Coast
Life has stresses – there’s no doubting that. Some days we’re flying high, and on others, we’re hitting lows and those around us are copping our ‘moods’. It happens.
And this is where relationships can start to fall apart. The constant picking at each other or being cranky for seemingly no reason starts to wear you down.
Despite how deep a gap you’re currently feeling in your relationship, there is hope.
Couples counselling, using my proven technique of Genuine Relating will help you to mend your relationship. Without blaming each other, you’ll learn how to better communicate with each other, heal past hurt, develop healthy boundaries and much more.
‘Using my relationship counselling method of Genuine Relating, you’ll explore the ‘hidden stuff’ we often bring to relationships and learn how to heal from this to create a genuine connection, a deeper sense of belonging and closer intimacy’.
Relationship counselling in a non-blame environment
I have been a relationship counsellor for many years, and I often hear people say, ‘I want to get help, but my partner is unsure’.
And I understand that – it’s a genuine concern. Opening up about your deepest feelings isn’t always the easiest thing to do, especially if you fear it will be held against you or create a deeper wedge.
But let me assure you, my relationship counselling encourages a non-blaming environment. Relationship counselling is about healing, communicating, and creating deeper connections with the person you love.
Relationship counselling can help you heal all sorts of issues:
- Communication breakdowns
- Relationship cracks
- Financial stresses
- Power imbalances
- Trust issues
- Growing up and apart
- Blended family unity
- Parenting differences
- Conflicting ideas
- Infidelity
- Unresolved conflict or past trauma
- Unhealthy behaviours
- Substance use
If you need a hand to get your relationship back on track, I’m here to help both you and your partner to regain your ideal relationship.

What others had to say about their relationship counselling experience
What you can expect from couples (relationship) counselling
In couples counselling, you can both expect to feel you’re being heard and supported in a confidential environment.
I understand that it’s not the easiest to talk about how you’re feeling or how someone else’s actions make you feel while they’re sitting next to you. But I can’t stress highly enough that you’re both in a safe place – free from judgement.
Throughout your couples counselling, you’ll learn how to change from being ‘reactive’ to comments to genuinely listening and learning how to ‘hear’ what your partner is saying.
You’ll both be given a chance to express your feelings, and together, we work through issues that are bought to the surface in the session.
Painful issues may be raised throughout relationship counselling. That’s expected.
But rest assured, with counselling, you will both learn how to deal with any issues in your relationship, heal and rekindle your loving bond.
