You hear the garage door whir open: that low, mechanical groan that used to make you happy knowing your partner was home.
Now?
Dinner’s half cooked, bedtime is looming, and you’ve got 47 tabs open in your mind:
Book the vaccination.
Pack the lunchbox.
Reply to the group chat.
Remember book week for daycare.
Make that specialist appointment.
Fold the laundry.
It’s a relay race from dinner to bath to bedtime to clean-up to prepping for tomorrow.
You’re both darting from task to task, surviving the evening shift. Barely any time for yourself, let alone each other. By the time the house goes quiet, you both end up on opposite ends of the couch. Doomscrolling. TV playing something neither of you are really watching.
Sometimes you fight - over seemingly small things. The next morning, you feel ridiculous for how it all exploded… again.
So here you are. Lying in bed. Scrolling TikTok at 12:23 a.m., searching for a sign.
Googling “couples counselling near me.”
Wondering quietly…
Is my relationship supposed to feel like this?
You’re not alone and this is often when most couples reach out for help.
Why Weekly, Why 90 Minutes, Why 6 Sessions?
When it comes to couples work, consistency is everything. In my professional experience, the couples who see real last change aren’t the ones popping in once a month.
The couples who make real, lasting change are the ones who:
Show up weekly to a consistent appointment timeslot
Learn how to speak to each other differently
Identify what’s going wrong in the relationship now, heal past hurts and learn to rebuild their connection
Recognise that therapy, not unlike going to the gym, doesn’t see change after one session.
Engage in our longer 90 minute sessions because they know the value of having enough time to unpack BOTH perspectives
Look at the treatment plan I’ve made for them to get from where they are to where they want to be.
That’s why I work in a structured, focused format designed to create movement fast and help it stick.
When you wait too long in between sessions, the progress slows down. Things build up. Resentment lingers. Arguments drag out. That’s not what you came here for.
You want to feel better.
What You Can Expect
-
A process that gives you both the time, tools, and emotional space to actually reconnect
-
To begin to feel happy again, and less like roommates
-
Know how to have the kinds of conversations that clear old resentments
-
Learn how to fight well and feel closer
-
Enjoy affection and physical intimacy – not as another chore or ‘thing to do’
-
To audit your lives and see where you can slow down, stop rushing and have more time for each other
Fees & Booking
-
Initial 90-minute session: $290: paid at time of booking
-
Each subsequent session: $290, paid on the day of your appointments
-
To create real progress quickly, consistency helps which is why at the end of our initial session, you’ll leave with your future sessions booked. On average, most couples require a minimum of 6 sessions.
Many couples do go on to do more sessions as needed, or return later to work on other things. But I’ve found this intensive approach is by far the best way to start.
