Specializing in Relationship Challenges
By Certified Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) Supervisor & Therapists
Couple counselling or Marriage Counselling can help you and your partner break free from old, negative communication patterns and perpetual problems in your relationship. Through counselling, you can reconnect and learn to respond to each other with tenderness and understanding.
Our approach to couple/marriage counseling focuses on experiential therapy, fostering emotional change to promote reconnection. We aim to create a transformative journey where couples can explore and reshape their emotional landscape together. During sessions, partners become more aware of their underlying emotions, learn to express their needs and feelings openly and coherently and develop a deeper understanding of each other. This process helps couples rebuild their emotional connection and strengthen their relationship.
It not only helps heal past wounds and resolve misunderstandings but also lays the foundation for a stronger, more resilient relationship. Our goal is to help couples experience a profound shift in their emotional connection, turning moments of conflict into opportunities for growth and deeper bonding.
When you discover that you are not “the only one” to your partner, it can feel as though your world is collapsing. The person you love the most hurts you the worst. The reactions can include intense distress, marked by feelings of anger, hurt, sadness, and helplessness. However, these responses vary from person to person. At the core, you might sense betrayal and abandonment, feeling that trust has been broken in the relationship. Questions may arise such as, "Can I trust you again?", "Can I ever count on you in the future?"
If you were the offending partner, seeing your spouse's pain due to your infidelity doesn't bring you any sense of joy but causes hurt to you as well. Being confronted about an affair can be exceptionally challenging to overcome. In the aftermath of infidelity, all the positive contributions and underlying relationship problems may seem insignificant. The situation is fraught with complex emotions, making it a difficult journey for anyone involved.
Infidelity certainly crushes marriages and relationships. Yet it is not a death sentence. I've had the privilege of providing guidance and support through infidelity counseling to numerous couples who managed to recover, heal, and even forge stronger relationships than before with the same partner.
Don't lose hope! Give your marriage the chance to address the wounds caused by the affair. Embrace this moment as an opportunity to not only overcome the crisis but also to flourish within your relationship and for personal growth as an individual!
Feeling unsure about whether to stay in a relationship or part ways is a tough place to be. Couple/Marriage Counselling offers a safe space for both partners to explore their emotions and understand what’s driving their ambivalence. With the right support, couples can gain clarity, improve communication, and reconnect emotionally.
Using approaches like Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy (EFCT), counselling helps partners recognize unhelpful patterns and uncover deeper needs and fears. Whether you decide to rebuild your relationship or part ways, counselling ensures that decisions are made thoughtfully and respectfully for both partners.
No one is forced to stay or leave. Instead, the focus is on working together to make the best decision for your future. Discover how Couple/Marriage Counselling can guide you through this process

Our marriage hit rock bottom struggling with infidelity, gambling debts and suicides. Just as I was about to give up in this marriage, I approached Winny. I had wanted to seek counselling for myself. Little did I expect that Winny ask to see my spouse too.
She put us on individual counselling sessions for a period of time. When situations were stable and we were more ready, she brought us together into couples counselling sessions.
Winny has journeyed with us through these most difficult times of our lives. She even met up our eldest boy, who was quite affected by us, to counsel him. She has the heart to want to help and make things better for the whole family.
Sometimes there were things in my head that I could not seem to rationalize. She can always help me to straighten my thoughts. It’s very easy to talk to her as I find that she grasps the situations fast and right.
Through the couple counselling sessions, Winny helped us to see the wrong dynamics we had in our marriage in the past. Our marriage took a turn for the better.
We are in a new marriage with the same partner.
We can communicate with each other better and
our children are happy.
We are very thankful to Winny for believing in us and helping us to find healing and restoration when our marriage seems shattered beyond repair. I would recommend anyone who needs infidelity counselling to Winny.

My life went into the dark when I was engaged in an extramarital affair. I subjected myself to lies, heavy gambling, neglecting work and even suicide threats. Most importantly I put my wife and family through an enduring and devastating time.
My marriage was on the brink of an end,
until Winny helped us to think rationally and understand the roots of our issues.
I had never been an open-minded or vocal person,
often unwilling to share. In the sessions of individual counselling, Winny provided a safe environment for me to share and express my feelings. It helped me understood how important my wife and family are to me.
During couple counselling, Winny provided us a safe platform to express and understand more about each other’s true feelings and intent behind our words and actions.
It helped to bring us to know we truly want our marriage to be. Winny had also been professional and patience with me throughout the course of the counselling, not giving it up, even as I had repeatedly lied and failed.
She has kept and persisted with us throughout this infidelity counselling journey. My wife and I now had found the right dynamics in our marriage now, thanks to Winny. We are grateful to Winny in helping us heal, restore, open up and build our marriage.

My seemingly perfect life took a 180-degree turn when I discovered my husband’s affair in 2024. For the sake of our young children, I decided to give him one chance to salvage our relationship when he begged for forgiveness. That is when we started infidelity counselling with Winny.
After uncovering the affair, I tried to cope by keeping myself busy and suppressing any unpleasant feelings. Winny quickly recognized this and guided me in identifying and unpacking negative emotions such as fear, resentment, and disappointment, allowing myself to grieve. Over time, I found myself handling triggers much better with this approach.
The biggest question after the affair was—why did he do it? With Winny’s facilitation, we pinpointed that my husband’s tendency to avoid conflicts was a key factor, possibly stemming from his childhood experiences. Whenever we disagreed, instead of confronting the issue, he would escape and seek relief from other sources, such as alcohol and ultimately, the affair.
Once we recognized this, Winny provided practical strategies to navigate our marriage conflicts. She taught me how to communicate more effectively by expressing my feelings clearly instead of resorting to accusations. She also created a safe space for us to reflect on our arguments and helped us identify destructive patterns that were damaging our connection. Through regular marriage counselling sessions with Winny, we were able to have meaningful discussions like never before, deepening our bond.
My husband became a changed man after the affair. Before it happened, he had been blinded by worldly pursuits. Even though we spent a lot of time together as a family and as a couple, he was often emotionally absent. The affair became a revelation and a turning point for him—it made him realize what he could have lost: his family, his everything. Now, he sees me with a new level of admiration and has become a more present and loving husband and father.
