Online Couples Counselling Australia
Counselling That Fits Your Relationship Needs, No Matter Your Location
Online Marriage Counselling Australia ​​​
Relationships can feel incredibly fulfilling, but they can also be deeply painful when things aren’t working. You may feel unheard, disconnected, or stuck in patterns of miscommunication that seem impossible to break. Perhaps past betrayals have shaken your trust, or life’s pressures - work, parenting, financial stress - have created distance between you and your partner. Over time, resentment can build, intimacy can fade and you may find yourselves questioning whether things will ever change.
​
By providing a safe space to explore your struggles, therapy helps you understand the deeper issues beneath your conflicts, communicate with clarity and empathy and rebuild the emotional connection that has been lost. Whether you’re working through trust issues, struggling with conflict resolution, or feeling emotionally distant, you’ll be guided through evidence-based techniques that promote healing and lasting change. Therapy isn’t about deciding who’s right or wrong - it’s about creating a relationship where both of you feel seen, heard, valued and supported.​
​
Here couples are warmly welcomed from all backgrounds, cultures and relationship dynamics. Whether you’re in a long-term marriage, a newer relationship, or navigating a unique path together, you’ll be met with respect, inclusivity and an approach tailored to your specific needs.
​
If distance is preventing you from finding the right therapist for you, online couples counselling makes this support more accessible than ever. Whether you and your partner live in different locations, have busy schedules, or simply prefer the comfort of home, virtual sessions provide flexibility without compromising effectiveness.
What You Can Count On Working With Me Online
A calm, compassionate space - even through a screen - where both of you feel safe to speak openly and be heard.
​
A balanced and respectful approach that honours both of your experiences, even when you're seeing things differently.
​
Gentle, steady guidance to help you slow down, reflect and begin to untangle what’s going on beneath the surface.
​
Practical, meaningful tools you can use in real-life moments between sessions - not just during them.
A focus on emotional safety and trust, creating powerful shifts that help you reconnect and move closer again.
Support in identifying and breaking the negative patterns that keep you stuck - so you can stop looping through the same arguments and start feeling like you’re on the same side.
Deep respect for your relationship, your individual stories and the courage it takes to show up for this work - especially in the midst of pain or disconnection.
​
A warm, grounded presence - someone in your corner who can hold the hard stuff with steadiness and care.
The ease and flexibility of online sessions that meet you where you are - at home, at work, or anywhere you can make space for your relationship in the middle of a busy life.
How I Work
I’m trained in Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy and the Gottman Trust Revival Method for navigating affairs and betrayals. This means I take the time to truly understand the heart of your relationship - your shared history, your individual pain points and the patterns that keep you stuck. With care and compassion for both of you, I gently help uncover what’s happening beneath the surface - those moments when you feel hurt, unseen, or disconnected - and guide you to express what really matters.
​
Together, we create a space where it feels safe to speak openly, listen with empathy and begin to reconnect emotionally. You’ll start to understand not just what’s going wrong, but why and how to move forward in a way that feels healing and respectful.

5 Session Online Individual Package
Relationship Assessment - Online
Session 1
A dedicated couples session where I take the time to understand each of your perspectives - what’s brought you to counselling, what’s felt painful or stuck and what kind of change you’re hoping for. This session creates space for both of you to feel seen and heard right from the start.
​
An in-depth online relationship assessment, using a science-backed questionnaire to enable us to explore your relationship’s unique strengths and the areas that need care.
Session 2 & 3
Individual sessions to gently explore your personal perspective. A chance to feel heard and supported without pressure or interruption.
​
To understand how past hurts or emotional wounds may be showing up in your relationship today - especially during conflict or moments when you feel distant or misunderstood.
To reflect on your early experiences and relationships to see how they may be shaping your needs, reactions and emotional responses now.
Session 4
You’ll receive practical tools, skills and resources tailored to your specific relationship goals - designed to help you make positive changes on your own and in your own time.
​
This package is ideal for couples who are generally doing well but want to strengthen certain areas or make small improvements to how they connect.
​
There’s no pressure to commit to ongoing therapy, but if you find the support helpful, additional sessions are available whenever you're ready to continue.
"I can honestly say taking the first step into couples counselling was the hardest thing we have ever had to do. But looking back we just wish had done it years ago!
We were heading for divorce and we were both so unhappy. Our relationship is so different now. The resentment has gone, after working through all the issues that had been there over many years. We are now able to communicate better as we now have the tools to keep our marriage and relationship on track.
It was so important to have the right person to help us. We had tried other people and they just weren’t the right fit for us. Debra is so welcoming and has such great experience and knowledge we really couldn’t have done it without her. Thank you just isn’t enough. You just have to make the first step."
