What to expect

To be successful in improving your relationship I recommend you book 3 to 5 sessions in a row, one each week.  After that book follow-up sessions further apart, e.g. every two or three weeks.  it usually takes couples six to nine months of focused intent to make permanent changes in the way they relate.

During each session you will learn new techniques and tools to improve communication and reduce conflict.

couples will be given tasks to do together which will assist you to gain a deeper understanding of the personality traits and behaviours that create dis-harmony and conflict.
