How Couples Therapy Works 

Couples Sessions are for 1 hour and 10 minutes. This is longer than standard couples sessions which are 50-60 minutes. In my experience, 70 minutes works very well for couples as it provides time for you both without being too overwhelming.

In The Sessions

We’ll start by clarifying some goals so that you have a clear picture of the journey ahead. 

During our sessions, we'll explore what's at the heart of your problems, unresolved hurts and unsatisfied needs. I’ll help you identify unhelpful patterns in your relationship and help you resolve them so that you can have greater love and intimacy. 

I’ll also teach you advanced communication skills and emotional management techniques so that you can express yourself with courage, and deeply hear each other.

We’ll review your progress and reassess your goals according to your needs as we progress.

Tools, Techniques and Resources

I offer a range of proven therapeutic tools and techniques to help you overcome blocks and consolidate what you’ve covered in the sessions. We'll focus on the ones that are just right for you as a couple. These include easy homework activities and strategies, which you then have for the rest of your life.

Having additional resources can be very beneficial in helping you practise what you have explored in sessions. With this in mind I offer all my clients free access to my courses, audios and videos. These are not a requirement for your couples therapy, however if you’d like to take advantage of these helpful resources they are there for you.

Couples therapy isn't just about overcoming problems.

Its also about helping you create a strong and happy relationship for the future.

Closer than we've been in years

We had drifted into living a life in parallel but never really truly together. We were at the point of deciding to part company but you helped us recover the love we both knew deep down that we wanted.

Thank you Marléne

All I can say is thank you for helping us save our relationship. You certainly know your stuff!

Highly skilled couples Therapist

The homework was invaluable. Marléne helped us see through the destructive patterns that we were playing out and learn how to be more authentic and communicate in way that means we don't argue, we just get closer.
