Online Couples Counselling
Something between you has shifted. And you're not sure how to find your way back.
Maybe the same arguments keep circling back, never quite resolved. Maybe you've grown distant without either of you meaning to, and the gap keeps widening. Maybe something happened that broke trust, and you don't know if it can be repaired.
Or maybe nothing dramatic has happened at all. It's more of a slow drift. A quiet disconnection. A sense that you're living alongside each other rather than truly together.
Couples counselling is a space where both of you can be heard, not to assign blame or decide who's right, but to help you understand each other more deeply, and work together on what matters most.
It's for couples in crisis and couples who just want more. Whatever brings you here, you don't have to figure it out alone.
You might be in the right place if:
You keep having the same argument, and it never actually gets resolved
You love each other, but can't seem to reach each other lately
One of you has shut down, and the other doesn't know how to get through
Trust has been broken, and you're not sure where to begin
You've been through something big, a loss, a baby, a move, and you haven't found your footing together since
You're not in crisis, but something feels off, and you don't want to wait until it gets worse
My Approach to Couples Counselling:
Every couple has their version of the same fight. The one that keeps coming back, that leaves you both feeling unheard and further apart than before.
In our work together, I'm interested in what's underneath that, not the surface-level conflict, but what's really being asked for. Usually, it's something simple and deeply human: to feel seen, valued, and secure in the relationship.
I work from a place of genuine curiosity about both of you. My role isn't to take sides or hand down verdicts; it's to help you slow things down enough to actually hear each other, and to start responding to each other in ways that bring you closer rather than further apart.
The foundation of this work is attachment theory, the idea that how we learned to connect (and protect ourselves) in early life shapes how we show up in our closest relationships as adults. Understanding that can be genuinely life-changing for a couple.
Sessions are 60 minutes and held online. I recommend beginning with six sessions, though many couples find they want to continue from there. We can meet weekly or fortnightly… whatever suits your life.
Taking the first step is often the hardest part. Book a free 30-minute intro call. Couples are welcome to join together or individually.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
My current rate for 60-min couples counselling sessions is $170 AUD.
I offer a free 30-minute intro call (couples are welcome to join together or individually), so you can get a sense of how I work before committing to anything.
Payment is due in full either upon booking or on the day of your session.
Your credit card information will be securely stored for automatic processing.
I charge a cancellation fee equal to the cost of your session if you cancel less than 48 hours before your session.
-
In most cases, yes. Couples counselling works best when both partners are present.
Occasionally it can be useful for each of you to have an individual session alongside the couples work, particularly if there's something you'd like to explore privately first.
We can discuss what makes sense for your situation on the intro call.
-
It's very common for one partner to be more ready than the other. If your partner is hesitant, it can help to frame it as a space for both of you to be heard equally, not a place to be analysed or blamed.
Sometimes just taking the first step of an intro call together can ease that reluctance. And if your partner isn't willing to come at all, individual counselling can still be a valuable way to work on the relationship from your side.
-
No. My role is to hold space for both of you equally, to help each of you feel heard and understood, and to help you understand each other better.
I'm not here to decide who's right or to advocate for one person over the other. I'm here to work with the relationship as a whole.
-
Absolutely. Some couples come to counselling hoping to rebuild, others come because they want to separate with more care and clarity than they could manage on their own, and many come somewhere in between, not yet sure what they want.
All of those are valid reasons to be here. You don't need to have made a decision before you begin.
-
I'd suggest beginning with a course of six sessions, which gives us enough time to understand the dynamic between you and begin to shift some patterns.
Many couples choose to continue beyond that. We'll check in regularly and you're always free to pause or stop whenever you feel ready.
-
In individual counselling, the focus is on you: your patterns, your inner experience, your growth.
In couples counselling, the relationship itself is what we're working with. We're looking at the dynamic between you: how you communicate, how you repair after conflict, how you each experience connection and disconnection.
Both are valuable, and sometimes a combination of the two is the most useful approach.
-
All sessions are held online via a secure video platform. This makes it easy for couples to attend from home, which many people find more comfortable and less logistically complicated than travelling to an office together.
