Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need couples counselling?
Many couples assume that therapy is only necessary when a relationship is in serious trouble, but counselling can be beneficial at any stage. If you and your partner struggle with communication breakdowns, trust issues, frequent arguments, or emotional distance, seeking help early can prevent deeper conflicts from forming.
Some signs that you might benefit from couples counselling in South Brisbane include:
- You feel disconnected from your partner emotionally or physically.
- Arguments seem to go in circles without resolution.
- One or both of you feel unheard, unappreciated, or misunderstood.
- Trust has been broken due to dishonesty, infidelity, or secrecy.
- You’re facing significant life transitions, such as moving in together, marriage, or having children.
- Intimacy has diminished, and physical affection feels forced or absent.
Counselling provides a safe space to express concerns, rebuild trust, and learn strategies to improve communication and strengthen relationships.
What can I expect in my first therapy session?
Your first session at Something More Counselling Services is a chance to discuss your relationship concerns and set goals for therapy.
During this session, your counsellor will:
- Ask about your relationship history and any challenges you’re currently facing.
- Explore what you both hope to achieve from counselling.
- Identify any patterns of conflict or communication difficulties.
- Provide initial guidance on techniques that may help improve your relationship.
For individual therapy, the process is similar. We focus on understanding your experiences, emotions, and personal growth goals to tailor the best therapeutic approach for you.
There’s no pressure to have all the answers in the first session. We aim to help you feel comfortable and supported as you take the first step toward a healthier and happier future.
How long does therapy take?
The length of therapy depends on your specific needs, the complexity of the issues you’re facing, and how quickly progress is made.
Short-Term Therapy (4-8 sessions)
Useful for couples needing help with specific issues like conflict resolution or improving communication. The focus is on learning techniques and strategies that can be applied immediately.
Medium-Term Therapy (3-6 months)
Ideal for couples dealing with ongoing conflicts, trust issues, or emotional disconnection. It involves a deeper exploration of relationship patterns and emotional healing.
Long-Term Therapy (6+ months or ongoing)
Recommended for deep-seated issues such as infidelity, unresolved trauma, or emotional detachment. Long-term therapy helps establish long-term relationship growth, resilience, and reconnection.
Your therapist will work with you to develop a personalised approach, ensuring you receive the right level of support for as long as you need.
Do you offer online counselling?
Yes! We provide telehealth counselling so that you can access professional therapy from the comfort of your home.
Online therapy is a great option if you:
- Have a busy schedule and struggle to find time for in-person sessions.
- Feel more comfortable discussing personal topics from your own space.
- Live in a remote area and don’t have easy access to professional counselling.
- Need flexibility in booking sessions around work or family commitments.
We use secure, confidential video conferencing to ensure the same quality of care as face-to-face counselling. Whether you need relationship counselling, marriage counselling, or individual therapy, online sessions allow you to receive the help you need without location being a barrier.
