How investing in couples therapy at Tavistock Relationships changed our lives - Suzy and Rebecca’s Story
Suzy and Rebecca's story about how couples therapy at Tavistock Relationships created a transformative turnaround in their relationship.
Karina and Peter’s Couples Therapy Story
They wanted help because Karina had been feeling very down. She wondered if their relationship was worth anything because she was so fed up with the long hours that Peter was working.
Carol and Nina’s Story
Carol had recently had a relationship with another woman and Nina wasn’t sure she could forgive her and resume their partnership. They came for an assessment session where the counsellor explored the issue with them. At this assessment it became clear that Carol was still seeing the other woman and that she too was unsure how to go forward.
Carrie and Shawn’s Story
Carrie registered online for an appointment the morning after Shawn told her he was having an affair. She had been worried for some time that something was wrong and when she confronted him and said that she was fed up of him being so difficult and angry, he confessed he was seeing another woman.
Grace and Pavel’s Story
At that time they were separated but Pavel was angry and upset because he felt Grace was preventing him seeing their two-year-old daughter, Summer. Grace and Pavel had never lived together and had only known each other a few months when Grace fell pregnant. For the first year, Pavel came to see Summer most days, and had spent a lot of time supporting Grace both financially and emotionally.
Jenny and Ahmet’s Story
Jenny and Ahmet had been having a rough time since his mother had come to stay from Turkey. Ahmet’s father had died in February and his mother, feeling lonely and sad had asked if she could spend an extended holiday with them. She had been staying since April and while Jenny was keen to be supportive and caring, she was finding living with her mother-in-law very stressful.
James, Becky and Sophie’s Story
We first started to experience problems in our relationship a few months after our daughter Sophie was born. Things were blissful after her birth, but by the time she was nine months old we were at breaking point. Our relationship was in crisis and things became very ugly very quickly. There would be constant resentful arguments. We were so worried that this would affect Sophie's well-being.
