For most people, interpersonal relationships are a significant source of support, fulfilment and growth. In too many instances, however, those relationships can stagnate or develop issues that don’t get adequately addressed right away. Especially in romantic relationships, unaddressed issues can become significant problems down the line.
Problems we Regularly treat with our Couples’ Therapy in Sydney
There are numerous issues you can encounter in a relationship. They fall into two main categories:
- Trust and Fundamentals – For many people, these issues only get revealed after the damage is already done. Perhaps you and your partner see the purpose of your relationship differently or have different relationship goals. In other cases, there may be infidelity, emotional distance, or absence of romance and respect. These issues, untreated, can destroy your relationship.
- Communication Issues – These show up in various ways, including stonewalling or the “silent treatment”, frequent arguments, irrationally angry responses to irritation, or an inability to move past older issues. Ultimately, they reflect a failure to communicate effectively and warrant couples’ counselling in Sydney to rebuild the lines of communication.
Regardless of which category you find your issues in, there’s hope that you can resolve them, and the relationship can be salvaged.
