Rediscover the Love and Connection in Your Relationship
Is your relationship feeling strained? Are you and your partner struggling with frustration, loneliness, or a growing sense of disconnection? Perhaps you're longing to rekindle the spark, improve communication, or heal from past hurts. At Bo Tree Counselling, we understand the challenges couples face and offer a safe, supportive space to help you navigate them together.
Why Couples Seek Counselling
Over time, couples can drift apart emotionally and intimately. Life's stresses, communication breakdowns, broken trust, family commitments, or unresolved conflicts can all contribute to feelings of loneliness within a relationship. Even the most loving couples can find themselves stuck in patterns that hinder intimacy and connection.
Our Approach to Couples Counselling
We provide a warm, welcoming environment where you and your partner can rebuild your bond. Our experienced therapist, Dee, specialises in couples counselling, utilising proven methods like Gottman Couples Therapy to help you rebuild trust, improve communication, and deepen your emotional intimacy. Whether you're struggling with conflict, infidelity, or simply feeling lost and lonely, we offer a safe and supportive space to explore your concerns and find solutions that work for both of you.
The Session-by-Session Process
Long-lasting changes rarely happen overnight. We've designed a structured process to help you and your partner achieve lasting transformation in your relationship:
01.
Initial Couples Session
We'll explore your current concerns, relationship history, and your goals for counselling. You'll also learn valuable strategies you can start using right away.
02.
Individual Sessions
Each partner will have the opportunity to explore their personal experiences, perspectives, and hopes for the relationship in a safe and supportive environment.
03.
Follow-Up Couples Sessions
Together, we'll delve into the issues identified in the individual sessions, focusing on enhancing self-awareness, communication, and empathy. You'll learn new tools to navigate conflict, express your needs, and foster a stronger connection.
04.
Check-In Sessions
We'll provide ongoing support to help you maintain the progress you've made and continue building a thriving relationship.
We typically recommend a minimum of 6-8 sessions for couples counselling, but the exact number will depend on your unique needs and goals.
Our follow up couples' sessions are where we focus on:
-
Identifying and addressing the root causes of your challenges: We'll work together to uncover the underlying issues that may be contributing to your current struggles, whether it's past hurts, communication breakdowns, or unmet needs.
-
Developing healthier communication patterns: You'll learn effective communication skills, such as active listening, expressing your needs clearly, and resolving conflicts in a constructive manner.
-
Rebuilding trust and intimacy: We'll guide you through exercises and techniques that foster emotional connection, vulnerability, and understanding.
-
Creating a shared vision for your future: We'll help you identify your individual and shared goals for your relationship and develop a plan to achieve them together.
​We understand that not all relationships are meant to last forever. If ending a relationship is the healthiest choice for you, we can provide support and guidance throughout this difficult process.
Confidentiality and Openness
Your privacy is of utmost importance to us. We adhere to strict confidentiality guidelines and will not disclose any information about your treatment without your written consent. However, in couples counselling, we operate under a "no secrets" policy. This means that information shared in individual sessions may be used to benefit the couple as a whole, promoting transparency and understanding.
Our Goal
Our ultimate aim is to empower you with the tools and skills you need to create a fulfilling and sustainable relationship. We offer both in-person sessions in Highton and convenient Telehealth appointments to accommodate your needs.
