You may feel that your relationship is just too hard and causes more pain than it is worth. You may be asking yourself how did we become so far apart? and doubt that you will ever have a close connection again.
All relationships experience difficulties and challenges. You may be feeling stuck in a cycle that has developed as you try to deal with these challenges. Instead of feelling that you are progressing and learning from each other you end up feeling distant, angry, resentful, hurt, misunderstood, and
alone in your relationship.

Relationship Counselling Can Help.
|
|
For years I experienced overwhelming
fears that prevented me from making any kind of commitment to my
girlfriend. I felt absolutely stuck, continuously getting closer and
further apart, closer and further apart .... and I felt frustrated ...
so I decided to get the help of a counsellor.
Delyse helped me through
individual counselling and helped me and my partner in counselling
sessions as a couple. With Delyse's help, I was able to make great
progress in discovering and experiencing the root cause of my fears and
to eventually dissolve my fears to the point where I was able to make a
commitment I actually wanted. MY girlfriend also discovered fears of
her own and was then able to address them!
We are also new parents to a
brand new baby boy! I highly recommend Delyse as a counsellor who has
the experience, insight and approach to help with the problems of an
individual or couple.' Keith Vancouver BC.

When you feel hurt by your partner it is easy to want to hide
aspects of yourself and shut down - You end up feeling split
between what you express and what you feel on the inside. You may feel
that you have to defend yourself against any criticism and conflict
becomes a minefield.
It is easy to end up reacting with blame, and when you experience differences
between you and your partner it feels like the relationship will fall
apart.

Your relationship doesn't have to be a struggle.

overcome these difficulties and find a renewed connection. With my guidance and support, I can

safe environment. You will discover how to talk about emotionally
charged topics without exploding or withdrawing. Ultimately you will learn to deepen your intimacy and find renewed pleasure in each other.

Counselling helped
me achieve a new viewpoint and understanding about my life - to cut
myself some slack and realize that much of the pressure I find myself
under is exerted by me! Delyse was able to help me find the ways I had
hidden to my own Pandora's box and it wasn't frightening at all - a
little sad sometimes, but not scary. Delyse helped me recognise things
that had influenced my life were 'influences' only but that I still
remained in charge of the final decisions. I have experienced renewed
enthusiasm about what I can accomplish within relationships that I
already enjoy! ' Ruby.

Perhaps you have been unhappy for years and keep saying to yourself
that you have no reason to feel the way that you do. You may
desperately hope that things will just get better if you give it enough
time, or that it is all in the past so why should it still bother me?
|
|
The Truth is that your Unhappiness and Dissatisfaction deserves Attention.
|
|
Reaching out can be the biggest hurdle, especially if you have
learnt to deal with things by yourself. You might feel that going for
counselling is a weakness and feel embarrassed. Or you might feel you
have let yourself down because you could not do it by yourself. But it is actually the opposite!
When you make that call to improve your relationship you are taking
charge! You are saying I want and deserve to be happy in my
relationship.
