You keep having the same argument with each other, over the most trivial things, but you can’t help it and don’t know why. Sometimes you feel like walking on eggshells, careful not to rock the boat; sometimes you angrily explode, then beat yourself up for the lack of self-control; sometimes you just walk away, feeling bitter and numb, and more lonely in your relationship.
Through couples counselling, it can become easier for you to see what is happening underneath the behaviours, and how you are impacting each other in these interactions, so you can respond differently in conflict, and start rebuilding trust and connection.
In our sessions we slow down the emotions and make sense of them, track the behaviour patterns that got you both caught in conflict spirals, and start to speak and respond in a way that sends very different signals to each other, helping you feel calmer and more connected.
Each counselling session is $150, 60 minutes long, in Beckenham, Perth or Online. Typically there are 1–2 initial couples sessions, followed by 1 individual session with each partner. Then couples sessions will resume till the end of therapy. Regular sessions are recommended, depending on your practical logistics, being weekly, fortnightly or monthly.
Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy is considered the Gold Standard in couples therapy field. Over 35 years of research has shown that couples on average require 8 to 20 sessions to experience lasting change outside of therapy. However, most couples are able to feel positive shifts between 5 and 10 sessions.
