Couples Therapy Counselling in Victoria BC

Relationship Counselling is the process of counselling two or more parties in a relationship. The relationship involved may be between friends or roommates, members of a family or a couple, employees or employers in a workplace, between a professional and a client, or members of a team or an association. Many relationships at times can become strained, resulting in disagreements, problems, breakdowns in communication or negative interaction cycles. When things are not functioning optimally having a trained relationship therapist who is impartial can really be of benefit to both or all parties. Couples Therapy and Counselling , Marital Therapy or Marriage Counselling all mean the same thing and is a related but different process. This type of therapy addresses the problems arising from adult sexual or intimate relationships. The relationship, as well as the two individuals, is the ‘client’.
