Love on the rocks: How couples counselling can help

All relationships have their ups and downs but if you think you and your partner have hit a particularly rough patch and you’d like help to work through it, YourGP’s couples counselling service could help you get things back on track.

Perhaps you’re arguing more and more, or perhaps communication has broken down completely and it’s beginning to feel like you’re living two very separate lives. Whatever your situation, talking through any problems with someone who is able to be supportive, but who is not directly involved, can make all the difference.

How couples’ counselling works

Dr Myskow will work with you on a one-to-one basis or as a couple – whichever you prefer. The first meeting will highlight the challenges you and your partner are facing and over the course of the next sessions you’ll acquire a greater knowledge of ‘the self’ and learn a new set of tools that will enable you to make more effective choices as you respond to situations in your life. You may be given assignments to do in your own time to further your understanding of your relationship problems.
