Whether you feel as though you’ve simply grown apart or you have obvious issues, couples counselling can help you address your relationship challenges. Spiler Psychotherapy, providing online counselling including in Burlington, Toronto, and Vancouver, shares just eight challenges counselling can help with below.
Healthy communication is vital in a relationship. However, it can be one of the hardest things to achieve. Sometimes, one or both parties do not know how to express themselves, while the other doesn’t listen or misinterprets their partner’s words. Situations like these either lead to constant arguing or a lack of communication beyond the necessary.
In many relationships, the responsibilities of bringing in income, raising children, and household duties aren’t equally divided. This leaves one or both parties feeling unappreciated or overburdened.
Parenting struggles can encompass many different areas, including but not limited to:
The truth is that anything involving children can create difficulties between partners.
In this category, external relationships don’t refer to intimate relationships but rather to friends and family. In-laws sometimes cause tension in relationships, as do one partner’s friends who are not respectful of relationships.
Money is often a hot topic in relationships for many reasons. The stress of debt or not having enough to pay your bills is one major reason. However, couples may also disagree on how to use their money.
Love, sex, and affection are important in relationships. Yet many are lacking one or more of these for a wide range of reasons, such as:
If one or both partners struggle with a mental health issue, it can take a severe toll on a relationship. Mental health issues, such as addictions, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, and trauma, can lead to withdrawal from the one with the condition, fights with no clear solution, and exhaustion from both sides.
Although these challenges are serious, all of them can be improved with professional therapy. Schedule your online couples counselling session with Spiler Psychotherapy of Burlington, Toronto, and Vancouver by calling (289) 815-2261 today.
