There’s a common myth that relationship counselling is all about keeping couples together. However, our counselling services can also help couples navigate breakups, ensuring that separation is as smooth and amicable as possible.
Relationship counselling is generally cheaper than mediation, making it a cost-effective alternative to mediation.
How can relationship counselling help?
- Improved communication: Learn how to communicate effectively during a difficult time.
- Conflict resolution: Resolve conflicts amicably and find common ground.
- Emotional support: Receive support to manage your emotions.
- Co-parenting solutions: Develop strategies for positive co-parenting.
Combining relationship counselling and mediation
For those seeking mediation, combining it with relationship counselling can provide a more comprehensive approach to managing separation. Relationship counselling can lay the groundwork for successful mediation by improving communication and emotional readiness.
