Communication, Communication, Communication
I believe that this is the most important element of good, functional and loving relationships.
I am directive. I think my job is to take the role of an active speaking referee. My role is to encourage talking and active listening. My aim is to expose hidden resentments, new and old, and to look at different ways of solving problems. I work with secrets and silences.
It is your job in your relationship to educate the other person about you. Your feelings, your opinions, your thoughts, and likes and dislikes. It is also your job to listen and hear your partner with goodwill and without judgement.
If you are self-critical you may often interpret another's words as critical when they may not be. If you have a history of being judged and of judging yourself, then this can often leak into a current relationship.
We address these issues and others that you bring in couple counselling. Intensive sessions work really well and together with planned homework, produce spectacular results within a short time.
I think couple counselling takes the most courage of all but it does work.
