When You Want Someone To Really Listen

Goals and Objectives of Couples Counselling

The major aim of counselling is increasing your knowledge about yourself,

your partner and the patterns of interaction between you.

Counselling becomes effective as you apply new knowledge to break ineffective patterns and develop better ones.

The key tasks of couples counselling are increasing your clarity about:

The kind of life you want to build together

The kind of partner you aspire to be in order to build the kind of life and the relationship you want to create         

Your individual blocks to becoming the kind of partner you aspire to be

The skills and knowledge necessary to do the above tasks

Keys to Improving Relationships

To create sustained improvement in your relationship you need:

A vision of the life you want to build together

To have a life separate from your partner because you are not joined at the hip

The appropriate attitudes and skills to work as a team

The motivation to persist
