COUNSELLING FOR COUPLES

Couples sessions take place with Karen Blumenfeld.

Modern life brings with it many challenges and stresses that impact on our lives both
at work and at home.  Many personal relationships start to crack under the strain.   

Couples counselling can help you learn to communicate better and to listen to one
another without feeling defensive or critical.

During sessions, you will be encouraged to see how you relate to each other and
helped with ways to change negative or ‘stuck’ patterns of behaviour.

After assessment and agreement of your goals, a minimum of a further eight, fortnightly, 90 minute sessions is recommended.

Here are some of the problems for which couples seek help:

*  feeling unappreciated        * repercussions of redundancy  
* bereavement              * boredom or ‘stuck’      *  constant fights
*  surviving an affair      *  different parenting styles
* living in a step-family      *differing sexual needs
* infertility and IVF issues       * conflicts over money
* help in separating     * middle years crises 
* unresolved childhood issues that are impacting on you as a couple
