Alignment Sessions: A Guided Path to a Stronger Partnership

Every relationship experiences moments of disconnection. Maybe it feels like you’re speaking different languages, struggling to prioritise each other, or navigating changes that have left you out of sync. The Alignment Sessions are here to help.

Through a structured, compassionate process inspired by Gottman Relationship Therapy and Acceptance Commitment Therapy principles, these sessions are designed to:

• Foster deeper understanding and appreciation for each other.
• Strengthen communication and conflict resolution skills.
• Realign your relationship with shared goals and values.

This work is ideal for couples who:

• Want to rekindle their connection and strengthen their bond.
• Are ready to address challenges proactively and kindly.
• Value practical tools they can start using right away.

Let’s realign your relationship and move forward with clarity, compassion, and connection.

Please note these sessions are not for couples in crisis. 

You BOTH must be willing to participate in all parts of the process - including homework

I do not work with couples who are experiencing  particularly complex issues such as  ongoing physical or emotional violence, porn, addiction, recent or multiple affairs or where one partner has already decided they want to leave.  If one of you isn't willing to listen to and show respect to the other, then the therapy I offer will not be of benefit to you. If you sometimes wonder about the safety of your relationship, please have a look through the information on this page.

Our sessions are all outdoors (see this page for location options, when you book your appointment, you can type in your preferred meeting place) - if the weather is inclement we can meet via Zoom (if kids are able to be occupied and you can be uninterrupted) or we can meet in sheltered areas or a library meeting room.  Please bring your own chair, a hat, sunscreen, mozzie repellent, a bottle of water and a pen and notepad. Please also allow 2 hours for your couple sessions.

This is how the process looks:

 ❤️ Session 1 $220. 90 minutes where we learn about your relationship and what it is that each of you wants to improve.

 ❤️ Then you will pay for (around $70) and complete the online Gottman questionnaire which looks at the overall health of your relationship and helps us determine where some additional support is needed. (neither of you can see the others answers)

 ❤️ Then I  will meet with each of you individually. These sessions are $150 each.

You then have TWO options

 ❤️Option 1: Single sessions, $280 per 2 hour session. These will proceed like standard relationship therapy sessions. It may seem expensive, but keep in mind most therapists will offer you 60-90 minutes max - I find this restrictive. I feel two hours together is much more beneficial for your relationship.

 ❤️ Option 2: You both commit to 6 structured sessions. The fee for this part of the journey is $1600 (save $80). I will see you both weekly for 3 weeks (if practical), then the next three sessions will be fortnightly. These are very focused, intensive sessions.

 ❤️ We'll then re-evaluate where you are at, and if you want to continue with couples therapy, you will just pay per session, $280.
