Couples Counselling
Relationships can become painful when communication breaks down, trust feels strained, intimacy becomes difficult, or the same conflicts keep repeating. Couples counselling offers a steady, respectful space to slow things down, understand what is happening between you, and begin moving forward with more clarity, honesty, and care.
Who this is for
This work is for couples who may be struggling with communication breakdown, emotional distance, recurring conflict, mismatched desire, trust strain, uncertainty about the future of the relationship, or the complexity of non-monogamy, boundaries, and relationship agreements.
What sessions focus on
Sessions focus on improving dialogue, clarifying recurring patterns, building emotional safety, navigating intimacy conversations, rebuilding trust where appropriate, and making more thoughtful relational decisions. The aim is not to decide who is right or wrong, but to understand what is happening more clearly and create a more workable way forward.
How couples counselling works here
Couples counselling is primarily held as a shared process, with both partners attending the sessions together. In some situations, occasional individual check-ins may be used if they are clearly discussed in advance and support the couples work rather than replacing it. The work remains structured, respectful, and focused on the relationship dynamic rather than blame. Clear expectations around confidentiality, fairness, and the counselling process are explained at the start so that both partners understand how the work will be held.
What couples counselling can support
Couples counselling can support clearer communication, more honest conversations about needs and boundaries, a better understanding of recurring patterns, greater emotional steadiness, and a more thoughtful way of approaching intimacy, trust, repair, and decision-making. It can also help couples who feel stuck between wanting to reconnect and not knowing how.
When this may not be the right setting
Couples counselling may not be the right setting where there is active coercive control, current domestic abuse, immediate safety concerns, severe untreated addiction, acute psychiatric instability, or situations requiring legal intervention more than counselling. Where another kind of support would be more appropriate, that will be discussed openly and respectfully.
Single Session Option
For some couples, it feels more manageable to begin with a single session rather than committing to a structured package from the outset. This option offers a calm, confidential space to begin speaking about what has become strained, painful, or difficult between you, without pressure to decide everything at once.
A single session can help bring early clarity to recurring conflict, emotional distance, communication strain, trust concerns, or the impact of recent hurt, while also helping you consider what kind of support may be most helpful going forward.

Price
Session fee: €85
This may be a good fit for couples who would prefer to begin with one session before deciding whether a more structured support option would be helpful.
A structured support option
Some couples feel more comfortable beginning with a more structured process rather than taking it one session at a time. For this reason, a couples support package is also available. It is intended for couples who feel stuck in recurring conflict, emotional distance, trust strain, or ongoing communication difficulties and would benefit from support across several sessions.
Couple Package
The Couple Package includes 3 online couples counselling sessions and offers a steadier starting point for couples who want support in understanding recurring patterns, improving communication, and approaching the relationship with greater clarity and care.
What is included:
-
3 online couples counselling sessions
-
written feedback after each session

Price

This option may be helpful for couples who would prefer a more contained and supported beginning to the work.
A note on pace
Some couples come feeling ready to work deeply straight away. Others arrive feeling uncertain, guarded, or emotionally tired. Both are understandable. The work moves at a pace that is steady and respectful, while still helping difficult patterns become clearer.
