Lisa and Shane’s story

We wanted a better relationship but we were arguing all the time. Sometimes we were just so mad that we wouldn’t talk at all. We were sick and tired and were thinking of separating. Because the kids were little, we didn’t have much patience or time. What else could we do? We were so unhappy and didn’t want anything to do with each other.

We really needed affordable relationship counselling, so Family Relationship Counselling really suited what we wanted. We now try to interact more positively.

They helped us to act like we were on the same team, and to set aside time to talk.

We built more appreciation and respect. We are now able to discuss the issues that we disagree on and we try to spend more time together.

We still have our moments, but doesn’t every couple? We’re better at working through them though, and we reckon the counselling saved us from an angry divorce. We’re more of a team now.

Funding
