Relationships are the cornerstone of our lives, and at Knox Mindfulness, we understand the
importance of nurturing healthy connections. Our Relationship Counselling sessions are
designed to provide ample time for each individual to express themselves fully and be heard
without the constraints of time pressure.
Key Features of Our Relationship Counselling Sessions:
- Extended Duration: Our Relationship Counselling sessions are 90 minutes long,
allowing ample time for each person to share their thoughts, feelings, and concerns
without feeling rushed. This extended duration ensures that all parties feel heard and
validated, fostering a deeper understanding and connection.
- Pressure-Free Environment: We believe in creating a safe and supportive space where
couples can engage in open and honest communication without fear of judgment or
criticism. Our counsellors facilitate constructive dialogue and provide guidance to
help couples navigate challenges and conflicts effectively.
- Communication Skills Building: As stated by E. Bourgeret, "Communication is the
lifeline of any relationship." Our counsellors emphasize the importance of effective
communication and provide couples with practical tools and strategies to improve
their communication skills. By enhancing communication, couples can strengthen
their connection and resolve conflicts more peacefully.
- Gottman Method: We incorporate principles from the Gottman Method into our
Relationship Counselling approach. The Gottman Method is an evidence-based
therapy approach developed by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, renowned experts in the
field of couples therapy. It focuses on enhancing friendship, intimacy, and conflict
resolution skills within relationships.
-
Gottman Relationship Checkup: As part of our Counselling process, we may utilize
the Gottman Relationship Checkup, a comprehensive assessment tool that evaluates
various aspects of a couple's relationship, including friendship, conflict management,
shared meaning, and intimacy. This assessment provides valuable insights into areas
of strength and areas for improvement, guiding our Counselling sessions and
interventions.
By investing in Relationship Counselling at Knox Mindfulness, couples can strengthen their
bond, improve communication, and overcome challenges together. Our goal is to empower
couples to build lasting, fulfilling relationships based on trust, understanding, and mutual
respect.
