Relationship Counsellor

As a relationship counsellor, you create a safe, confidential space where people can talk about their relationship problems. You might work with a couple who are arguing a lot and struggling to understand each other, or with someone trying to work out what's wrong. You listen carefully without judging, ask questions to help them think more clearly, and gradually help them communicate better.

Your days are spent in one-to-one or couples sessions, where you help people work through issues like trust, conflict, intimacy and how they show love. You won't tell them what to do - instead, you help them find their own answers. You'll keep detailed notes on each client's progress and stay up to date with new research about how relationships work and what therapy techniques are most effective. The work is confidential, emotionally demanding, and rewarding when you see people reconnect and understand each other better.
