Signs you might need to see a relationship therapist

All couples face ups and downs, but if problems keep repeating or the relationship feels more exhausting than supportive, it may be time to speak with a relationship counsellor or psychologist. Therapy offers a neutral, supportive space to work through challenges, either together as a couple or individually.

Here are some signs it might be worth speaking to a professional:

Conversations feel tense or go nowhere

If everyday discussions turn into arguments, or if you're avoiding certain topics altogether, it could be a sign of unresolved emotional baggage. A relationship counsellor or therapist can help you identify the underlying issues and work towards more respectful, honest conversations.

Trust has been compromised

When trust is damaged through dishonesty, infidelity, or unspoken resentment, it can be difficult to feel secure in the relationship. A psychologist can support both partners in understanding the impact of those experiences and guide the process of rebuilding trust.

Intimacy has changed significantly

Whether it's emotional distance or a decline in physical closeness, shifts in intimacy often point to deeper concerns. Therapy can provide a safe and structured space to explore these changes with care and openness.

Ongoing stress is affecting the relationship

Major life events such as becoming parents, dealing with illness, or financial stress can all place strain on a relationship. Having professional support during these times can help couples and individuals stay supported.

You're questioning the relationship

If you’ve started to seriously question whether the relationship can continue, or you’re unsure about how to move forward, working with a relationship counsellor can help clarify your thoughts and options.

Amazing platform for therapists!

by Michael

My experience since joining Talked has been wonderful. All of the traditional client onboarding processes are taken care of. Individual client profiles has made communicating and rebooking hassle free, plus automatic reminders are sent out before sessions (yay!)

This has helped to make things easier.

Excellent service

by Peter

Booking and payments process was super quick and smooth and I liked that the therapy video session was directly on the platform and they don't force you to download any additional apps. I'll definitely be coming back and would also recommend Talked to everyone else! Great service!

A great platform for counsellors and clients

by Karen

As a Registered Counsellor, I have been finding the Talked platform easy to use. The admin staff are very helpful and quick to respond to questions or problems. It is set up well, with everything in one place: therapist selection, appointment booking, messaging, payments etc. I highly recommend Talked for both counsellors and clients.

Fantastic staff, easy to use platform and easy to book

by LMA

It's cheaper and better experience then face to face therapy. The staff are well trained, kind and offer a range of different support techniques. Really awesome platform.

How to deal with relationship issues?

Communicate openly and without blame

Use clear, respectful language when discussing concerns. Focus on how you feel rather than what your partner has done wrong. “I feel” statements can help reduce conflict and encourage understanding.

Understand each other’s needs

Listen without interrupting or assuming. Ask questions to clarify what your partner is experiencing. Recognising each other’s emotional needs helps build empathy and support.

Manage conflict calmly

Disagreements happen, but how you respond matters. Stay focused on the issue rather than bringing up past grievances. If emotions are running high, take a short break before continuing the conversation.

Seek support from a relationship counsellor

When issues feel stuck or keep repeating, professional support can make a real difference. A relationship counsellor or therapist offers a neutral space to explore the deeper causes of conflict and improve how you connect.

Couples therapy is not only for both partners; individual sessions can also help you reflect, process past experiences, and develop new tools and relationship patterns.

What to expect in an online relationship therapy session?

Compassionate, qualified guidance

Online sessions are led by experienced relationship therapists who create a calm, respectful space to explore concerns. You’ll receive gentle support tailored to your pace, whether attending with a partner or on your own.

Evidence-based methods and real-life tools

Depending on your needs, your therapist may draw on proven approaches such as the Gottman Method or Emotionally Focused Therapy. These frameworks help address common challenges like conflict, trust issues, or emotional disconnection. You’ll also be guided through practical strategies that can be applied in everyday situations to support lasting change.

A therapist who’s the right fit

Part of a successful online session is feeling comfortable with your therapist. With Talked, you can book free and unlimited 15-minute consultations to find someone who aligns with your values and needs. Feeling at ease with your therapist helps create a safe and effective space for progress.
