Same Sex Couples
The couple counselling process will allow meaningful communication to develop in a controlled environment, enabling both parties to be heard without interruption.
Deciding to seek out help in Couple Counselling when you are in a same-sex relationship is no different to couple counselling for heterosexual couples. Engaging in couple counselling is a positive step towards achieving and maintaining a healthy balanced couple relationship. All couple relationships can be challenging at times. For some, a crisis takes them to Couple Counselling. For others, there is the realisation that they are unhappy in their relationship.
Same Sex Couple Counselling
The Couple Counselling process will allow meaningful communication to develop in a controlled environment; enabling both parties to be heard without interruptions. Couple Counselling will also help you to handle conflict, anger and resentment in a more productive way, break negative patterns of behaviour, examine how past relationships from your family of origin can affect your relationship with your partner, promote a deeper level of self-awareness and seeing your partners fears or worries from their perspective.
Sometimes difficulties can arise when parents find it difficult to come to terms with a same sex relationship. You cannot change their perspective however you can change your reaction to it. The strategies you learn during the Couple Counselling process will assist you and your partner to stay on track and relate in a better way in the future.

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 …
