Frequently asked questions

  • Is online couples therapy effective?

    Yes, online couples therapy can be just as effective as in-person sessions. Our therapists are trained to provide support through virtual couples therapy, ensuring that couples receive the same level of care and guidance regardless of location.

  • What can I expect from couples counselling sessions?

    During your first session, the therapist will ask questions to understand both partners individually and as a couple. You’ll discuss your goals for therapy and determine if the therapist is a good fit. The focus is on improving communication and addressing therapy for relationship issues.

  • How long does couples therapy typically last?

    The duration of therapy varies based on individual needs and goals. There are no restrictions on the number of sessions, allowing couples to progress at their own pace and decide when they feel ready to stop.

  • Can I choose between in-person and online couples therapy?

    Yes, we offer both face-to-face and online therapy for couples. If you are local to our centre, you can attend in person; otherwise, you can benefit from remote couples therapy from the comfort of your home.

  • How can therapy help my relationship?

    Counselling for relationships helps couples address issues such as communication breakdowns, trust concerns, and emotional intimacy. Through therapy, partners can develop healthier ways of interacting, leading to a stronger bond.

  • Is marriage counselling confidential?

    Absolutely. Couples counselling is conducted in a confidential setting allowing couples to speak openly about their concerns without fear of judgement or breach of privacy.

  • How is couples therapy different to individual therapy?

    In couples counselling, the relationship is the client – not just the individuals. Rather than focusing only on one partner’s problems, we explore:

    • How each partner contributes to relational patterns
    • How external factors (stress, family, work) impact your dynamic
    • How to create new patterns of connection and resilience together

    This holistic focus often leads to breakthroughs that individual therapy alone cannot achieve.

  • What types of couples therapy do you offer?

    Our therapists draw from multiple theoretical backgrounds, allowing them to tailor therapy approaches that best fit your situation. Depending on your needs, your therapist might integrate:

    • Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
    • Integrative Behavioural Couples Therapy (IBCT)
    • Systemic Therapy Models

    Each approach is designed to strengthen bonds, improve communication, and foster deeper intimacy.
