Initial Assessment
Jody and clients will start with a free initial assessment session where they get to know each other. Jody will ask questions to understand the client's presenting concerns, personal history, current life circumstances, and choice for therapy intervention. This helps in establishing a therapeutic alliance and creating a treatment plan tailored to the client's needs.
Establishing Goals
Based on the assessment, Jody and the client couple, will collaboratively set goals that focus on improving relationship and interpersonal connections. These goals provide a roadmap for the counselling process, guiding sessions and supporting them in developing healthier communication, understanding, and fostering a safe connection with themselves and one another.
Exploration and Insight
In subsequent sessions, Jody creates a safe and supportive environment for the couple to explore their thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and relational patterns. Through reflective listening, empathy, and insightful questioning, Jody helps the couple gain a deeper understanding of themselves, each other, and the dynamics that influence their relationship, fostering greater connection, awareness, and mutual understanding.
Embodied Practice
Jody supports partners in developing practical tools and strategies to navigate relationship stress, emotional challenges, and communication difficulties. Techniques may include relaxation exercises, mindfulness practices, emotional regulation strategies, and healthy boundary-setting, helping the couple enhance understanding, connection, and resilience within their relationship.
Building Self Confidence
Jody supports each partner in developing self-awareness, self-compassion, and self-acceptance within themselves and in the context of their relationship. Through validation, encouragement, and reflective dialogue, partners learn to gently challenge negative self-perceptions, nurture their self-esteem, and cultivate a greater sense of confidence, self-worth, and emotional resilience, which positively contributes to their connection and communication as a couple.
