Learn evidence-based, practical tools

I’ll work with you to help uncover each of your core needs and values that are behind your disagreements and teach you ways to express your needs and feelings without blame and criticism, both in and out of the ‘therapy room’.

Strengthen your partnership

Move from stress and isolation to teamwork and connection and maintain a positive home atmosphere aligned with your values and goals.

Feel seen and supported

Step into a non-judgemental space where you can explore your values, understand your triggers, and develop greater empathy and understanding of your each other’s perspective.

What to expect from your counselling appointments.

  • Step One:

    We’ll start with a free 20-minute consultation call done via phone or video call (your preference). 

    This is a chance to get to know each other, talk through your situation briefly and see what you are hoping to get from counselling. 

    It’s important you feel comfortable, so there is no pressure to continue if it doesn’t feel like the right fit. I’m happy to share referrals if needed. 

    Both partners are welcome, but it’s okay if only one of you can join.

  • Step Two:

    If you are happy to continue with me, book your session online.

    If you opt for a virtual appointment, join the appointment together, logging in from the same room.

    Get ready, I’ll send you both forms to complete before our first session.

  • Step Three:

    We will begin our sessions with an assessment phase that includes:

    A joint session where I get to hear from you both about the challenges you are experiencing and the goals you are hoping to achieve through counselling.

    Online questionnaire and individual sessions: I will then send each of you an online questionnaire to fill out. This will further explore your relationship patterns, emotions, and communication styles before I meet with you individually to dig a little deeper. 

    All this will help me understand your strengths, stress points and what is really going on in your relationship, so that I can personalise therapy specifically for you. The questionnaire will help me understand your relationship in detail and allow us to jump straight into working on skills that might otherwise take several sessions to learn and address.

    Joint feedback session: We will then have another joint session where I can share what I’ve learnt, highlighting your strengths and areas to work on so that we have a clear roadmap for moving forward.

    If you have any questions or want to understand this process further, please book a free 20 minute call.

Frequently Asked Questions

 

  • To make couples counselling more accessible.

    Through virtual counselling and after hours and weekend sessions, I hope to remove some of the hurdles that keep couples from making their first appointment. 

    I understand that virtual counselling may not be for everyone. For those that prefer face to face appointments, I offer an in person day at Glow Clinic Berwick, fortnightly on a Wednesday morning.

  • You’ll need a computer with video and audio capabilities, a good internet connection and a quiet and private room when you both can log in from together on the same screen.

  • After our first session, we can decide whether weekly or fortnightly sessions would be best for you. I generally don’t recommend spacing sessions out more than fortnightly at the beginning of your counselling journey. However, if your circumstances require longer intervals between sessions, we can discuss and find an arrangement that works for you.

    In the later stages of counselling, we will phase out and meet less frequently, allowing you to test out the new skills you’ve learnt and prepare for ending your counselling journey.

  • No two couples are the same. The length of your counselling journey will depend on your specific needs and goals. 

    We will regularly evaluate your progress and satisfaction. I also encourage you to talk to me about any questions or concerns you may have at any time.

    I want you to know that this is your counselling journey, and you are free to conclude counselling whenever you wish. Once you decide it’s time to end counselling, it can be helpful to have a final session together to reflect on the progress you’ve made, identify the work that remains and say good-bye.

    M.O – Melbourne

  • Rozanne was absolutely wonderful throughout the sessions. She brough a calm, thoughtful presence and made it easy for both of us to open up. Her ability to guide conversations with care and clarity really helped us reflect on ourselves and our relationship.
