Marriage Counselling / Couples Counseling
The two-tier marriage counselling approach has proven to be extremely effective for couples
We offer the most up-to-date and innovative techniques to help solve your relationship issues. We do this by taking a two-tier approach which has been extremely effective for couples.
Marriage and Relationships
Statistics reveal that 90% of couples are dissatisfied with the process of marriage/couples counselling because of the lack of success in most of their counselling endeavours. That is why we implement the two-tier approach. The two-tier approach is far more successful because it utilizes counselling, coaching, communication building skills with a "wholistic" approach to help each person within the relationship move forward in a more effective manner so that harmony of love may be achieved.
Tier 1
This is the counselling and coaching phase. In this tier we discover the prevailing issues and begin working to resolve your relationship issues helping to facilitate healing and reconciliation.
Tier 2
If the Tier 1 process hasn’t resolved the issues then we proceed to Tier 2. This is the individualized psychotherapy phase where we begin working on resolving the deeper emotional issues that get triggered in the relationship. At this level we counsel through personal issues that interfere with having a successful relationship. At this stage of therapy EMDR is used primarily to help resolve the underlying emotional issues.
