One of the most common challenges in developing a relationship is finding a way to become closer to your partner without sacrificing your own individuality. It’s worth noting that 69% of all arguments in a relationship stem from differences between the two individuals involved, such as conflicting desires, needs, upbringings, values, priorities, and perspectives. There are always three perspectives in a relationship: yours, your partner’s and the one when both perspectives can sit side by side. Common sources of relationship stress include lack of communication, unmet expectations, difficulty resolving issues, and lack of intimacy.
Counselling can enhance your understanding of healthy communication, intimacy, and the development of an intimate relationship. It can also help to develop skills required to improve your responses to one another. It can help repair trust, process difficult emotions, and heal trauma.
The fact that you and your partner are experiencing any of the difficulties I mentioned above does not mean your relationship is doomed. Couples counselling can be an effective tool to create the relationship that you want. Please reach out for a free 15-minute consultation or to book the first session.
