My name is Amanda Sacco, and I provide a specialist counselling service for couples and families. The happiness we enjoy in relationships is strongly linked to our ability to communicate effectively, yet often we have limited experience with being taught this crucial skill. Lack of communication can result in increasing conflict or distance regarding several challenges such as navigating the impact of an affair, family, stepfamily and in-law dynamics, financial strain, difference in goals and values, resentment and grudges, lack of emotional support, trust and jealously issues and intimacy and sexuality challenges.
Life transitions such as getting married, the arrival of a baby, and the joining of families in remarriage are all periods often leading to a myriad of emotions and challenges. Connection Matters Counselling uses a tailored, evidence-based approach to address each couple's or family's unique challenges regardless of where they are at in their journey.
The research is clear, healthy relationships aren't just rewarding, they're transformative for both you and your families physical, emotional, financial and developmental success. To learn more and book an appointment online, please visit my website.
