Relationship & Couples Counselling
You’re tired of the same fights, the same silence, the same slow drift apart.
You sit next to each other, but it feels like you’re worlds apart. You’ve tried to fix it, but nothing seems to change.
The worst part? It’s not just the fights. It’s the resentment, the loneliness, the feeling that no matter what you do, nothing gets better. It’s exhausting. You’re walking on eggshells, feeling invisible, wondering if this is just how things are now. You love them. So why does it feel like love isn’t enough?
Relationships carry trauma, disconnection, and communication breakdowns – your own and family legacy’s.
We work with couples, families, polycules, and ethical non-monogamous relationships to rebuild trust, navigate intimacy, and learn how to truly hear one another.
It doesn’t have to stay this way. If your relationship is at a crossroads, with the right support, it’s possible to slow things down and find a way forward. If you’re ready to stop feeling like strangers, let’s start.

Relationship support that goes deeper than better communication

Using trauma-informed, evidence-based relationship therapy, you will be supported to:
- Understand the cycles that keep pulling you apart
- Repair ruptures, and unmet needs
- Rebuild trust and emotional safety
- Navigate intimacy, sex, and desire with honesty and care
- Learn how to stay connected without abandoning yourself.

- Tools for repair, boundaries, and rebuilding trust
What relationship counselling is
A place to understand what’s happening beneath the conflict
Rather than focusing on who’s “right”, we explore what each person is protecting, longing for, or responding to.
Support for intimacy, sex, and emotional connection
Including mismatched desire, sexual shutdown, betrayal, jealousy, or changes in relationship agreements.
A space to slow things down and get clear
Whether that means repairing, renegotiating, or consciously deciding what comes next.
Methods
Our work draws on trauma-informed couples therapy, attachment theory, nervous system regulation, and sex-positive practice.
Sessions are structured enough to keep things safe and productive, while flexible enough to meet the unique needs of your relationship, including non-traditional and multi-partner dynamics.
We use Gottman and Imago couples therapy frameworks.
What most people get wrong
- Couples counselling isn’t about learning to communicate “better.”
- Most couples who end up here already talk plenty. The issue is usually what’s underneath the conflict, not the conflict itself.
- It’s not about picking a side. We’re not here to decide who’s right.
- It doesn’t mean the relationship is failing. Needing support doesn’t mean you’ve done it wrong.
- This isn’t only about staying together. Sometimes the most honest outcome is leaving well, and that takes support too.
- Non-traditional relationships aren’t a “special case” here. Poly, ENM, and kink dynamics are worked with directly, not managed around.
- Waiting too long before coming to therapy

Not sure where this is headed — but ready to figure it out? Reach out.
Experienced support for poly, ENM & kink relationships
You don’t need to explain your relationship structure before you can get support. You won’t be questioned about your choices, asked to justify how you live, or quietly nudged toward monogamy. This is a space that understands how you actually live – and welcomes it.
There is space here to explore:
- Boundaries and agreements that aren’t working anymore
- What you need Vs what your partners need – and how to hold both
- Trauma responses that trigger reactions and emotions in ways you didn’t expect
- Jealousy that harder to manage than you expected
- The difference between a relationship problem and an attachment wound
- Welcoming new partners
- Compersion – and why it does’t always show up as expected or hoped
- Shifts in power dynamics and how to navigate them safely
Where we stand
Whatever’s happening between you, you don’t have to work it out alone in the same four walls where it keeps going wrong. Bring what’s actually true for you both, and we’ll work out what happens next from there.
Support is available in-person in Perth and online across Australia.
If you’re ready to stop feeling like strangers, or want help understanding what’s happening.
