Is couple's counselling right for us?
|
Whatever your specific goals are, I will work with both partners to ensure that both partners feel heard and understood. Most importantly, my aim is to help create a situation where both partners learn how to respond to each other in the best way without having to compromise any important values that they may hold. I integrate a number of approaches in work with couples. I draw from Emotionally Focused Therapy, the Developmental Model and Relational Life Therapy.
