Family counselling offers a private, confidential, and non-judgemental space for families to discuss their relationships. It can involve individuals, couples, and several generations of family, or non-family members. Our family counsellors aim to highlight strengths and resources that families already have, building on these foundations to open a space for positive communication. We aim to provide a space for families to explore and discuss any barriers to being able to manage their relationships.
Before counselling begins, you will be invited to attend an initial meeting as a family to assess whether Relate is the right fit for you. Your counsellor will ask you to talk through what’s happening, and what you’d like to change, and together you will work to decide the best way forwards.
Counselling is a different experience for everyone, and what happens in your sessions will depend on what you hope to get out of it, and on the unique needs of your family. Ongoing sessions may include some 1:1 sessions with individual members, smaller groups or as a whole family together. The number of counselling sessions can vary depending on the difficulties you wish to address; you can discuss this with your counsellor within the initial meeting.
We recognise that Relate may not always be the right fit. In these instances, our main priority is that you receive the best support possible, and we will work with you to find and access the support you need from another source.
"We got a different perspective on things, and we were able to untangle the various problems in our relationship. We were able to talk about our feelings very easily and make sense of the past. I feel less stressed about our home life and now enjoy being a family together. Relate felt a safe place for us to talk without judgement about the past. I feel free of the chains."
