Therapy sessions for family issues

Family Counselling

Open up about your experiences and emotions, and get non-judgmental support from a Hart-certified therapist who specializes in family issues.

Family counselling and therapy

Very few of us have wonderful healthy relationships with all our family members. While most of our relationships feel reasonably normal, there are usually a few that cause us problems. When you feel that you would like to improve your relationships with your family members, we are here to help you.

We have 90 therapists who specialise in Family Counselling at Hart Centre.

Every family situation is different, which is why we take great care to match you with a therapist who understands yours.

With Parents

Many of us both love and are frustrated by our parents. We love them and want their love as we have since we were born, and also want them to acknowledge us as the capable adults that we are. Most parents want to love us, and respect us and want us to do well, but then sometimes get challenged personally if we do too well, or not how or what they expected.

There can also be boundary confusion between parents and adult children when parents don’t want to let go of the reins of responsibility for you, and keep insisting that they know what is best for you. That’s when you need to be lovingly assertive.

Or sometimes parents stay away for they fear that they are not wanted in your life. Despite these challenges, parents play a key and pivotal role in our lives, and our relationships with them can be enhanced by either party making the first move.

If you would like to improve your relationship with either of your parents, we can help you.

Friends Relationship Counselling

Where would we be without our friends? Our friends are the people we actively chose to be around, and reflect how we want to live our lives. Often we chose our best friends because he or she fully supports who we are, rather than tries to change us.

Good friendships are maintained when there is a roughly equal give-and-take between the two if you over time. One of the main problems between friends occurs when one of you perceives that the give and take has become unequal.Another problem can happen when changes in partners and or having children means a changing status of your friendship.

Still another, is pleasantries to your face and judgements behind your back. Friendships can be enhanced by honest, caring and assertive communication between you. If you would like some advice on a friendship, or  some help on how to improve a friendship, please call us.

Hart Centre has helped thousands get back to a better place

Very easy to book and the lady who answered was very helpful, not an easy call to make but she made it feel comfortable and easy.

I didn’t know how much my withdrawing was creating such a communication problem in our relationship. I have always blamed Karen’s arguing. Thank you for your unbiased help and advice. So good to know before we start having kids and things really start stressing us out.

Alan & Karen

Friendly, efficient and easy to book and get the most appropriate therapist.

Thank you!

MZ

As our marriage was on the brink of falling out for one another, we decided to book Andy. With her help day by day, she has been giving us constant guidance through our dilemma. And here we are, open and accepting our differences. We are so blessed to have Andy as our therapist. Thank you so much for saving our marriage!

HR

Well, your questions certainly created a few heated discussions that we hadn’t had before. But I guess it’s better out than in. Because of our discussions, we know now where our hot spots are, and are working on them. Thanks for the insight. It may have taken us years to find them out.

Michelle & David

My connection with my wife had become distant, which has led to a tense situation in our marriage, which was dangerously close to failing. Participating in Naomi’s sessions was the catalyst that opened our eyes to the fact that we never wanted to be apart from each other and instead desired to be together. It not only helped to save our marriage but also brought the passion back into our relationship.

JG

I was worried about being judged upon booking, making the first step is always uneasy. I was greeted with care and compassion and felt well heard by staff. Easy, simple and fast process. Thank you.

Lisa

Kudos to Brigette for having a great impact on saving our marriage from the verge of separation. With her counselling, our relationship becomes more intact, improving our daily lives and mental health. The stability that we currently have in our relationship is the result of her counselling. Our marriage will be like this with your help. Thank you Brigette!

JA

After me and my partner had a session with Julian, I was so happy. My partner and I had attachment problems such as seeking attention with each other and always wanted to have time each other other. Julian helped us in so many ways that I was so thankful for because me and my partner today have been better than before. Thank you Julian for your help!

Chris

Very fast and friendly service. Understanding and courteous. Highly recommended.

RR

Julie. I can’t thank you enough. To be honest, I got dragged along by Fiona, and didn’t think we needed it, but it gave me a chance to bring up some things that had been really bothering me, and now they are almost sorted. I would never have thought it could have been so productive. Thanks again.
