Online Couples Counseling Services​

Do you struggle to communicate with friends or partners? Perhaps you’re not sure how to deal with conflict, and you find that you’re unable to express how you feel without things becoming confrontational? These signs of relationship difficulties shouldn’t be taken lightly.

Healthy relationships with others are essential for our mental wellbeing, but sometimes we all find ourselves in conflict situations that we’re not sure how to handle. 

Disagreement is part of all relationships, but it’s knowing how to handle conflict that determines the strength and longevity of the relationship. 

Why am I experiencing relationship difficulties?

You may struggle to communicate with your partner or have problems with other people at work. 

Signs of relationship difficulties manifest in a range of ways:

• Uneven give and take – you feel like you’re showing support and not getting it back in return
• Walking on eggshells around another person, avoiding specific subjects
• Issues with control – feeling obliged to do what the other person says or does
• Feeling misunderstood and ignored
• Abuse (emotional, verbal, or physical) – if arguments turn to some form of violence or attack
• Quick temper

Am I being gaslighted?

Gaslighting is where a person (or entity, such as an employer or government) makes a victim question reality. It’s a subtle, drip-drip-drip-type abuse where the victim is likely to misinterpret the action or not even notice it, but – over time – a process of manipulation takes place. 

Relationship difficulties can be challenging to address alone; it can be beneficial to talk through your problems with somebody qualified to help. 

Remember: you’re not on your own. SupportRoom will connect you with professionals training who can provide the support and guidance you need to talk through your relationship issues. We also provide LGBT therapy services for those looking for LGBT couples counselling too.
