Reignite Your Love: Empowering Relationships Through Effective Couple Therapy

Be the best versions of yourselves, together.

Does your relationship feel more like a struggle than a source of joy? Are you and your partner constantly fighting? Is one, or both of you, always holding back? Could it be that there is no passion anymore? Or perhaps, there never was, to begin with?

“A relationship is like a gravitational force, it pulls two people together for the purpose of being held, supported, loved, and understood,” says Dr Gabor Mate, a bestselling author and renowned speaker on the matter. While it’s easier said than done, the key is learning to communicate effectively and working through differences with compassion.

At Positive Living, we believe in the power of love. Using a method known as ‘Imago’ (meaning one’s own image), we help partners understand each other better and grow as both a couple and as individuals. Our Conscious Couple Therapy uses the Imago approach to help couples recognise any past, unresolved trauma that they have and work towards overcoming it.

When couples learn to do this together, they elevate their state of consciousness, enabling a long-lasting relationship built on trust, love, and service rather than demand, blame, and shame. This establishes true intimacy and understanding, allowing both parties to thrive. The therapy will also be supplemented with a variety of techniques and exercises that our therapists have perfected through years of experience. 

Over time, it will feel as if you’ve fallen in love all over again, forgiving each other for the past and working towards a happier future as a unit. You will leave therapy a more emotionally intelligent, conscious, considerate, patient, and accepting person than you were going in.

While every relationship is unique and has its own set of challenges, it always helps to take the time and learn about each other and yourself. Our therapists will provide you with the skills to navigate any hurdles and hardships as a team.

Conscious Couple Therapy highlights include:

  • Prioritising personal growth
  • Acknowledging each other’s feelings (empathy)
  • Communication adjustment (learning each other’s love language)
  • Accepting each other’s authentic selves
  • Setting fair, realistic boundaries for both partners
  • Trusting each other’s capacity to heal
  • Feeling safe and secure (relationship free of judgement)
  • Nurturing confidence in your partner
  • Self-actualisation

Couple Therapy FAQs

Couples therapy, also known as marriage or relationship counseling, typically involves sessions with a trained therapist who helps couples improve their relationship. During therapy, you and your partner will explore your communication patterns, identify conflict areas, and work on developing healthier ways to connect and resolve issues. The therapist provides guidance, tools, and strategies to enhance your relationship and strengthen your bond.

In the initial couples therapy session, you and your partner will meet the therapist and discuss your relationship concerns, goals, and expectations. The therapist will ask questions to understand your unique dynamics and may provide some initial insights. Together with the therapist, you will establish goals for therapy, set ground rules for communication, and create a framework for future sessions.

The duration of couples therapy varies widely depending on the couple’s needs and goals. Some couples may see significant improvement in just a few sessions, while others may require several months of therapy. On average, couples therapy can last anywhere from a few weeks to several months, with sessions typically occurring once a week. Long-term or periodic check-in sessions may also be recommended to maintain progress.

Yes, therapy can be incredibly beneficial in helping you become a better partner. Through therapy, you can gain self-awareness, improve communication skills, learn effective conflict-resolution strategies, and address personal issues or traumas that may affect your ability to be a supportive partner. Therapy provides tools and insights that can enhance your relationship and your role within it.

To prepare for relationship counseling, consider the following steps:

  • Reflect on your relationship goals and what you hope to achieve in therapy.
  • Be open and honest with your partner about your feelings and concerns.
  • Set realistic expectations for therapy, understanding that progress may take time.
  • Be willing to participate actively in sessions and complete any recommended homework.
  • Choose a qualified therapist with experience in couples therapy.
  • Keep an open mind and be receptive to new insights and strategies for improving your relationship.

Remember that the success of relationship counseling often depends on your commitment to the process and your willingness to work together with your partner and therapist to achieve your goals.
