What is Communication Counselling?
Communication is the lifeblood of any relationship. It allows you to connect with your partner. By opening up to one another, it increases intimacy. You feel like you know the other person a way that no one else can. You feel like they know the deepest, darkest parts of you and still love you. Simply put, it is this level of connect that differentiates this relationship from any other that you have. And if you are like many couples, it was the conversations that you had when you were first together that convinced you that this person was “the one.” If you are struggling with this, then communication counselling might be right for you.
As time goes on it is easy for this communication to slip in a relationship. Maybe when you talk now it seems like your partner isn’t listening. Maybe when they talk it doesn’t seem interesting or relevant to your life anymore. Perhaps with your busy work schedule you can’t find time to connect. Or between the kids and the pets it is very hard to hear anything nowadays. Maybe you do communicate, but in raised voices and harsh tones. Whatever the situation is, you are left feeling cut off from your partner. This central feature of your relationship is gone. Is it possible to get it back?
How Can Counselling Help with Communication?
When a couple falls into negative communication patterns, it can be difficult to break the cycle without outside help. That is where communication counselling comes in. With the help of a counsellor, the counselling participants will learn their relationships “communication dances,” the negative patterns that they have been speaking in. Then, they will learn a new routine, and work to be able to not only express themselves, but also acknowledge and respond to their partner’s feelings too. With the help of counselling you can reinvigorate this part of your relationship and set the foundation for lasting romance!
