Dating Again
They say it’s like riding a bike, once you get back on the saddle it will all come back to you. Enjoy.
Looking at how to start dating again can be a little scary but also exciting, so let’s get to it.
There will be many different reasons why you will want to start dating again, which will be individual to you. Before you start to date again perhaps pause for a minute and ask yourself some questions.
The questions to ask yourself
- Do you feel ready?
- Have past relationships followed a pattern that did not serve you well?
- Have you noticed recurring patterns in the type of person you choose?
- Have you designed the profile of the person you would like to meet?
- Are you over your last relationship?
- Do you know what a good relationship looks like to you?
Having looked at the questions you may have identified an area you need to work on to ensure your new relationship is good for you. Many people come to see us for a few sessions to explore the possibility of finding a new partner.
Nightingale Couple Counsellors
Working with a relationship counsellor will increase your self-awareness and guide you to an understanding of what a good relationship looks like to you. If you are going online, it is important to build the right personal profile to attract the type of partner you want.
Don’t be afraid about starting over. This time you’re not starting from scratch, you’re starting from experience. This is your chance to rebuild your life into the one that you wanted all along.
Online Counselling
Providing you with the tools you need to take the next step.
Technology is rapidly changing the ways we can interact with each other, and counselling is no exception. This
service can be provided upon request. For the below options you will need broadband/internet connection and
somewhere quiet and private you can speak without being overheard or interrupted. Your Counsellor will agree with
you what happens should the technology fail, but in all other respects the counselling relationship will be the same
as a ‘face to face’ one. The Counsellor will speak to you from a private room …
Phone Counselling
The service will connect you with the counsellor on your mobile phone. Sessions for telephone counselling are between 30 minutes to an hour.
ZOOM Counselling
‘Zoom’ requires you to download the ‘Zoom’ application and set up an account. You will also need a PC, laptop, or smartphone with a webcam.
