Couples Therapy
When you feel more like roommates than partners
Maybe you're stuck in the same argument on repeat. Maybe you're doing fine on the surface, but the connection you used to have has quietly faded. Or maybe you're not in crisis at all- you're engaged or newly married and want to build strong foundations before problems set in.
Whatever brought you here, you don't need to be on the verge of a breakup to benefit from couples counselling. Most couples wait too long to seek help, the right time is before things become truly unbearable.
Our Approach: The Gottman Method
We use the Gottman Method, one of the most extensively researched approaches to couples therapy available today, developed from decades of studying what actually predicts whether relationships thrive or fail. This isn't generic "communication tips"- it's a structured, evidence-based approach to identifying your specific patterns of conflict and connection, and building practical skills to shift them.
Our couples work is led by a therapist trained in Gottman Method Couples Therapy (Level 2), giving you a level of specialization beyond general talk therapy applied to relationships.
What we can help with
Recurring conflict and communication breakdowns
Navigating mental and/or physical health conditions within the relationship
Feeling disconnected or "roommate syndrome"
Navigating major life transitions together (marriage, a new baby, relocation, career change)
Pre-marital counselling and relationship preparation
Family and in-law dynamics, particularly relevant in the Asian context
Intimacy and emotional connection
If you’re relating to any of these, reach out, we’re here to listen…
What Sessions Look Like
Initial Assessment Phase
Before diving into ongoing sessions, we start with a structured assessment- typically one joint session and individual sessions with each partner to understand your relationship's history, strengths, and problem areas from both sides.
Ongoing Joint Sessions
Most couples attend weekly or fortnightly, with session length and frequency adjusted to your needs and goals.
Note: If one partner is carrying unprocessed individual trauma that's driving the conflict, we may recommend concurrent individual therapy alongside couples work, to give the relationship the best chance of progress.
In-Person or Online
Sessions are available at our Petaling Jaya practice or online, so distance or scheduling isn't a barrier.
