IMPROVE YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH COUPLES COUNSELLING:
- Couples Counselling is for people who have difficulty in communicating.
- Most of us live life in the fast lane where couples don't see enough of each other. There are money worries and often a lack of trust, with pressure to perform and look good. A true relationship should enhance your life.
- Josephine O'Halloran offers everything from counselling for couples going for fertility treatment to teaching better communication with each other.
PSYCHOSEXUAL THERAPY:
- Psychosexual Therapy is for people who have gender issues around their sexuality.
- It is also for couples who have sexual difficulties in their relationship & is only available for couples who are in a committed relationship & is not for individuals.
Marriage Preparation Courses:
- This 3 hour course is held in a private and confidential setting for each individual couple.
- They are required to complete a questionnaire about their relationship prior to the course and the work is based around this.
- The course also helps the couple to strengthen their relationship and gives them the tools to deal with future challenges which arise over the course of their marriage.
