Couples Counselling: The Emotions Underneath
Intimate relationships can simultaneously hold our most beautiful, precious, and wonderful experiences along with our most ugly, frustrating and sole-crushing ones. Emotions can overpower us with warmth and love in one moment and then shift to something cold and anger-filled. What lies underneath these emotional experiences, however, is often invisible to both us and our partners. The unknown factor that affects our relationships can cause us to lash out in unexpected and overwhelming ways. This experience is not only frustrating for the partner it can be surprising and scary for the individual as well.
In my work with couples, I aim to narrow in on the emotional experience of both people in the relationship. To achieve this, I work hard to create an environment in which both members of the relationship feel comfortable sharing. In other words, the most important element I work for is creating a non-judgmental space for you both to come together and then share.
If you are having trouble in your relationship, you are welcome to reach out and book a Free 15-minute initial phone call. During the call, I can share a little bit more of how I work and (much more importantly) you can share what is going on for you and your relationship.
