Long Distance Relationship Counselling
Go the distance.
You may have arrived here because…
The distance makes communication hard - you feel not listened to, fights remain unresolved, it’s impossible to find the time to talk.
There is insecurity and jealousy that results in trust issues that causes strain in the relationship.
You feel lonely and long to connect with your partner.
The future is uncertain which makes you uncertain about the relationship and where you’re headed.
You have different expectations about how to manage the long distance which leads to ongoing fights and arguments.
I’m glad you’re here. Here’s how long distance relationship counselling can help you.
The physical distance leads to emotional distance. You’re having communication breakdown with your partner, feeling misunderstood and disconnected, and your disagreements remain unresolved.
There are issues with insecurity and jealousy, leading you to have trust issues with one another. You don’t have your partner around, you feel lonely and isolated without them, and you miss the physical intimacy and it’s hard to keep the romance alive.
You’re unsure about what the plan is for the future, leading to uncertainty about where the relationship is headed, which leads to more fights and feeling stuck and that you want to give up because it’s just too hard.
Different time zones add to the existing challenges in the relationship. It’s a challenge negotiating time together and time apart.
You have different expectations about the frequency of communication, visits, and relationship goals.
There’s a lot of changes and transitions that is creating strain in the relationship - work relocation or personal transition.
If this is you: you need a space where you can nurture a secure and connected relationship, despite the long distance.
The distance between you is getting bigger.
It doesn’t matter how big the distance between you is, it’s about how you manage that space that counts.
I will create a space for you to feel connected despite the distance. Together we will work on building emotional intimacy and trust leading to greater closeness and security in the relationship. We will work on improving communication, ensuring that you can both effectively convey your feelings and needs, leading to deeper understanding. I will guide you using proven techniques to navigate conflict constructively, turning disagreements into opportunities for growth and understanding.
You will have a safe space for you to be able to talk about the future of the relationship openly and without pressure or fear of things turning into a conflict. We will work to negotiate and align your relationship expectations and boundaries that respect both your needs - individually and for the relationship, in a way that honours the ongoing growth of the relationship.
