Most motivated couples experience a significant improvement in their relationship within 12 sessions, although it is sometimes necessary for one or both partners to also\u00a0undertake some\u00a0Individual Therapy in order to progress within the Couples Therapy.<\/p>\n

I welcome both heterosexual and same-sex couples for Couples Therapy.<\/p>\n
