Frequently Asked Questions
If you have any questions about marriage counselling or how it can help improve your relationship, we’re here to help. Please check out the questions below, and and feel free to reach out if you need further information.
How does marriage counselling differ from pre marital counselling?
Premarital counselling focuses on preparing couples for marriage by addressing expectations, communication skills, and potential challenges before they arise. Marriage counselling, on the other hand, helps couples navigate ongoing relationship concerns, improve communication, and strengthen their bond at any stage of their marriage.
How long does marriage counselling typically take?
The duration varies depending on the couple’s needs and goals. Some couples may benefit from short-term counselling (a few sessions), while others may prefer ongoing support over a longer period. Sessions are tailored to your unique situation.
Is marriage counselling only for couples in crisis?
No, marriage counselling isn’t just for couples in crisis. Many couples seek counselling as a proactive way to strengthen their connection, improve communication, and navigate life transitions before problems escalate. It can also provide tools to maintain a healthy relationship and prevent future conflicts.
Do both partners need to attend every session?
While attending together is ideal, individual sessions can sometimes be beneficial, especially if one partner is hesitant or if personal concerns need to be addressed separately before working together as a couple.
