Couples and Relationship Counselling
A relationship that's lost its footing doesn't always need an ending — sometimes it needs a space where both people can say what they actually mean, without it turning into another argument. SFCT's couples counselling creates that space: somewhere to communicate honestly, without judgement, and start to understand each other's side again.

What SFCT offers
If you're navigating difficulty in a close relationship — not only as a couple — it's worth reaching out to talk about what SFCT can offer. Sessions focus on understanding the patterns you've fallen into, what each of you actually needs, expectations that haven't been said out loud, and practical ways to communicate, set boundaries, and work through conflict together.
Important considerations
Like SFCT's therapies, its counselling is offered alongside — and never in place of — a person's existing medical or psychiatric care. SFCT's relationship counselling is a support service for working through relationship difficulty; it isn't appropriate as a response to abuse, violence, coercion, or an immediate safety risk, which may need specialist or emergency support instead.
Session format
Sessions are typically joint sessions for the couple or relationship involved. Counselling may be offered in person, online or by phone, depending on the service and individual circumstances. Generally under 1 hour; may vary depending on the individual case.

Other Counselling Services
Child, Teen & Parenting Counselling
Growing up brings real pressures — friendships and fitting in, schoolwork, how they see themselves against everyone else online, and simply working out who they are. Not every child or teenager will tell a parent when something's wrong; sometimes they need someone outside the family to talk to.
Grief and Bereavement Counselling
Grief doesn't move in a straight line, and it doesn't look the same for everyone — it's shaped by your background, your culture, your relationships, and what you believe. SFCT's bereavement counselling gives you space to put words to what you're feeling: anger, guilt, fear, sorrow, sometimes all at once.
Crisis & Safety Information
If you or someone you know is in immediate danger, contact emergency services or a crisis helpline right away. SFCT does not provide emergency crisis intervention — find safety resources and referral information here.
