Our Approach

Our focus is on the present and assisting you both to handle what you are experiencing now, unpack this and let this essentially change your inner architecture ie. emotional patterns so that you reach  new connection and establish completely different ways of handling conflict and communication together.

We base our work on the models of Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy and Nonviolent Communication.

Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy was developed by Dr. Sue Johnson and is ranked through studies as the most successful approach to building loving relationships.  Based on the knowledge that the way to “enhance or save a relationship is to re-establish a secure emotional attachment and preserve the ‘bond’ between you.  This model has achieved an astounding 75% success rate.” (Hold me Tight by Sue Johnson).

Nonviolent Communication (NVC), is a profoundly transformative model for conscious communication and healing, developed by Dr. Marshall Rosenberg and used internationally for 45 years.  You’ll find more about NVC here

Can we try out how you work to see if it suits us?

Sure.  I suggest you book an initial consultation and by the end of this you’ll have a clear sense as to whether you want to proceed and if you do, what sort of programme is recommended.  Many couples leave even this first appointment, with a valuable insight and different quality of connection.

Your initial consultation can be by skype or in person and involves and investment of $225.  To arrange your initial consultation or ask further questions – please call 02 9940 0880 or click here to send an email. Evening and Saturday appointments are available.
