Counselling in 6008

Nearly all of us have challenges in life. Perhaps some of the most difficult for us to adjust to are those concerning our intimate relationships, and sexuality. Relationship problems and problems with sex are two of the most common issues that people bring to counselling with me... these aspects of life frequently result in much distress within each of us, and much conflict if you're in a relationship. Let's face it, it's not easy talking about relationship problems and sex when we're already feeling distressed.

There is an unfortunate reality in life, sometimes you don’t feel good or just feel stuck at times. This is not “news” to anyone reading this . . . you may even be having a bad day right now! We all naturally try to avoid or get rid of painful or unpleasant thoughts and feelings. In these moments, we may have the impulse to distract ourselves, avoid things, or use substances to get away from these unpleasant experiences.In behaviorist terms, this is precisely how aversive control works. It says that known suffering is less risky than the unknown.
