“Why do we let all those irritating little things get in the way of a great relationship? Why do we keep pushing each other away!? It’s not supposed to be like this! It’s frustrating, YOU’RE frustrating!”

A philosopher once wrote, “Hell is other people”. He was referring to the dilemma of all human relationships: we crave being close to other people, but when we get too involved we can lose our connection with the other things that we want in life. Freedom to make choices, responsibility, authenticity, individuality. Often too, what we were initially hoping for in our relationship is either no longer there or never developed in the way we were hoping for.

  • You try to communicate, but you just don’t understand each other…
  • You seem to want such different things from each other, or from life…
  • Mostly, it’s fine, but then s/he just does something to infuriate me…

Relationship coaching and counselling provides individuals and couples with a safe, structured environment, and a professional and non-judgemental therapist, coach and mediator to directly address these and other issues undermining the foundations of your relationship.
