Relationships can provide stability and support but may also involve conflict, stress, or disconnection. Professional counselling can assist couples to address challenges in a constructive way.

At Prime Path Psychology, our Adelaide relationship psychologists provide evidence-based couples counselling and relationship therapy in person and via telehealth online therapy across Australia, including Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, and Canberra.

Evidence-Based Couples Counselling

Our therapists draw on the Gottman Method Couples Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) for relationships. These approaches are designed to improve communication, resolve conflict, and strengthen emotional and physical connection. Sessions are structured, confidential, and focused on building practical strategies for long-term relationship satisfaction.

Couples & Relationship Counselling FAQ

When should we seek relationship counselling?2026-04-23T21:27:49+00:00

You do not need to wait until your relationship is in crisis to benefit from therapy. Couples counselling is highly effective for improving communication, resolving recurring conflicts, navigating major life transitions, or rebuilding intimacy. If you find yourselves stuck in the same arguments without resolution, a relationship counsellor can help break the cycle.

What is the Gottman Method for couples therapy?2026-04-23T21:28:52+00:00

The Gottman Method is a highly respected, evidence-based approach to relationship therapy. Based on decades of research, it focuses on disarming conflicting verbal communication, increasing intimacy, respect, and affection, and removing barriers that create a feeling of stagnancy. Dr. Reza Nejad utilises this method to provide couples with practical, actionable tools they can use at home.

We speak Farsi at home. Do you offer bilingual couples counselling?2026-04-23T21:29:33+00:00

Yes. Communication is the cornerstone of relationship therapy, and being able to express yourself in your native language is crucial. We offer specialised Farsi couple counseling to ensure cultural nuances and emotional expressions are fully understood and respected.

Can we do marriage counselling online?2026-04-23T21:29:57+00:00

Yes, we provide online couples counselling via secure telehealth. This is an excellent option for couples with busy schedules, those juggling childcare, or couples who may be temporarily in different locations.

Does couples therapy work if we are already thinking about divorce or separation?2026-04-23T21:30:30+00:00

Yes. Many couples enter therapy as a “last resort.” While therapy requires commitment from both partners, a skilled relationship psychologist can help you navigate deep-seated resentments, rebuild broken trust, and provide clarity. Even if a couple ultimately decides to separate, therapy can help facilitate a healthier, more amicable transition.
