💭 Communication Skills Training
Where To Go: Alliance Counselling
You're not alone if you and your partner are struggling with communication problems. Many couples face miscommunication issues through poor listening skills and misinterpretations that can be significant roadblocks in their relationships.
Fortunately, places like Alliance Counselling provide professional resources to help you avoid potential misunderstandings and conflicts from being unable to communicate effectively. Their therapists are trained to identify communication barriers, facilitate open and honest dialogue, and provide practical tools for better communication. We recommend booking a session of their Gottman Method Couples Therapy to leave your communication issues in the past.

💭 Conflict Resolution
Where To Go: The Counselling Paradigm
Conflicts are a natural part of any relationship. Sometimes it just happens that your emotions run high, and you inevitably find yourself in a clash. However, how you and your partner navigate and resolve these conflicts ultimately makes or breaks your bond.
The Counselling Paradigm specialises in helping couples navigate these disputes by identifying the root causes of conflicts. They help couples manage their emotions by teaching negotiation and conflict management skills. This way, The Counselling Paradigm helps equip the couple in conflict with the skills necessary to resolve their disputes productively and respectfully.

💭 Intimacy and Emotional Connection
Where To Go: Incontact Counselling & Training
Sometimes, as time goes on, you may find yourself experiencing a lack of intimacy and emotional connection with your partner. It may not stem from an issue of your own causing, as growing apart can happen naturally. However, it still leaves you and your partner feeling distant and unfulfilled.
If such issues sound familiar to you, we recommend trying Incontact Counselling. Their therapists work closely with couples to help them identify barriers to intimacy and explore their emotional vulnerabilities, enhancing their trust and fostering more profound connections. Their guidance allows couples to reignite their passion and build solid emotional bonds again.
