Relationships Australia is an organisation committed to offering relationship support to individuals, couples and families. We also offer courses on various aspects of relationships.
Relationship Difficulties
Everyone who is in a relationship or cares about their relationships may need assistance at some time to:- help them deal with problems or difficulties in a relationship
- learn how to form or improve relationship
- cope with a relationship that has broken down
- help to change a relationship where there is violence and abuse.
There is conflict at times in every relationship that is important to us. Being able to handle conflict and deal with differences is important in establishing and maintaining healthy relationships.
People often get very emotional, and angry, when they see their partner has different values, beliefs or expectations. We all need to understand and accept that between any two people there will be differences in ideas and expectations and, at times, conflict and strong expression of feelings.
Our relationships actually become stronger if we talk about these differences. We need to find out that differences are always going to be part of the relationship and that issues might have a solution if they are discussed more.
All couples experience problems in one form or another - it's part of sharing your life with another human being. The difference between relationships that work and those that don't is how well couples deal with the challenges and problems they face in their life together. Advice or extra skills can often assist.
