Hart-Certified Counsellors Focus
on Positive Couples Therapy

It can be hard to feel positive about your relationship during problems. Couples counselling allows you to share issues in your relationship. Our approach focuses on resolving these problems positively.

What Leads to Relationship
& Trust Issues

  • We have lost that loving feeling; I don’t know whether I even love my partner, or I love him but am not ‘in love with him” any more
  • We are like flatmates rather than partners, friends but not lovers anymore
  • We argue, complain about and criticise each other
  • One or both of us shuts down and withdraws rather than communicates well
  • My partner is controlling or verbally abusive and I can’t stand it any more
  • My partner doesn’t show me any affection
  • We have no love life
  • My partner won’t take his/her share of the responsibilities
  • My partner (or I) have had an affair
  • We can’t agree on finances, child rearing, or where to go on holidays
  • My partner has to have his or her own way all the time
  • I have problems with my in-laws, or interfering parents
  • My partner is not supportive of me at all
  • My partner won’t listen to me
  • My partner is controlling or verbally abusive and I can’t stand it any more
  • I don’t remember the last time we spent any quality time together,
    or had a Date Night
  • We have a blended family. How do we manage stepchildren?
  • I have no interest in sex any more
  • Somehow I have lost myself in my relationship
  • We can go days without talking

How a Positive Approach Helps Resolve
Relationship & Trust Issues

We help you look at what dynamics you as a couple may have unwittingly fallen into, which can help take away the sense of blame that is easy to attribute entirely to your partner, so instead, the two of you can form an alliance in working on it.

Additionally, quite early in the process, we have you create your positive want list based on your issues, and in doing this, we are able to work with what you are wanting that will make your relationship great for you, providing a positive repairing of your relationship.

We also show you how to communicate more honestly and openly, encourage and nurture your romance, identify your love languages, make quality time together, and celebrate improvements together.

As you progress, good will and a deeper understanding between you and your partner can begin to grow, allowing you to rediscover a mutual appreciation of each other.

It is easy to feel hopeless when you are experiencing the negativity of relationship problems. We can show you that there IS hope for the future of your relationship.

T.H – Deception Bay, QLD

My husband and I recently did a few counselling sessions with William. I have never been to counselling previously and found Williams approach very empathetic whilst holding us to account. We felt very comfortable with William which made the process so much easier to manoeuvre through as it is not always easy to express yourself to a stranger. Would highly recommend William for any counselling.
