Relate - Couples Counselling

Good quality relationships are fundamental to our health and wellbeing, as well as our children's long-term life chances. The reality is that one in five UK adults are in a distressed relationship, 42% of marriages end in divorce and a large number of couples separate.

Relate, the UK's leading relationship support charity supports families before, during and after separation to part in the least painful way possible and to maintain a positive co-parenting relationship if there are any children involved.

Relate's relationship counselling is available to couples and individuals. Perhaps things have reached crisis point in your relationship and you and your partner are considering divorce or separation. If this is the case, it may be worth attending counselling as a couple to help you find a way forward. It may well be that you decide to go your separate ways, but talking it through with somebody objective such as a counsellor can be really beneficial. Maybe one of you has already moved out but you are wondering now if divorce is the next step for you or if a reconciliation could be possible.

Relationship counselling can also be a really useful tool for individuals who are going through divorce or separation It's a way of unpacking what went wrong in your relationship so that you can change any behaviours that weren't working for you, build self-esteem and move on with your life, building healthy relationships in the future.
