Couples Therapy

Happy Couple, Couples Counselling

Couples Therapy-
Grab your partner's hand, take a leap of faith, and create change together!

We understand that stepping into relationship counselling can feel daunting for some.

Couples often fear that the counsellor will whip out their referee whistle and start taking sides, and let's not forget the nerves that come with the thought of your partner spilling secrets you're not quite prepared to hear!

At Benchmark Counselling Group, we create a safe space to navigate your stuff and will guide you both toward healthy communication —making sure you're comfortable every step of the way.

Our couples and marriage therapists are here to support both of you. To help you talk honestly and openly so you can unlock the depths of the connection between you two.

Couples report that their experiences in counselling sessions teach them to:

Connect more deeply and intimately
Feel safer discussing what is important to them
Change destructive patterns

Ah, relationship counselling, where we dive into the intricate world of patterns! Learning about your patterns is an essential part of relationship counselling. We’ll discover the underlying difficulties that often go unnoticed and help you understand your relationship dynamics more deeply. We’ll work through the conflicts that may start to pop up after the ‘honeymoon’ phase.

Communication leads to deeper connection…

Sometimes emotional reactions get in the way of how we truly want to express ourselves. 
Together, we'll explore the inner workings of your communication style and discover the secret codes to smoother, more meaningful interactions and connections.

Focus of Relationship Counselling

What to consider when doing couples therapy

You will get the most out of therapy if you:


Develop clear goals
for therapy and the kind of relationship you want to build together.

Work on your roadblocks! Become the partner you aspire to be.

Learn to respect what your partner identifies as their roadblocks. Be curious about their experience.

Accept that conflict produces growth. Learn to manage disagreements—it’s the key to more harmonious relationships.

Take the time to review your progress and identify the next steps.
