Counselling involves working through the issues and empowering both parties to develop new strategies and solutions. This may involve providing tools or options to prevent difficulties developing in the future. For example, couples may learn communication, conflict resolution and relationship skills to help them work together in resolving their problems
What if your partner doesn’t want to attend counselling?
If your partner doesn’t want to attend counselling then it is still worthwhile for one person to attend to talk about what’s happening in the relationship and perhaps take away some new skills to help resolve the issue.
Don’t wait until your relationship problems develop and become so large that counselling, even by a very experienced Counsellor, is a very hard task.
