Common questions about online couples therapy

What is the difference between couples therapy and relationship counselling?

Couples therapy and relationship counselling are often used interchangeably. Both involve a qualified therapist working with two people (or an individual) to explore relationship patterns, communication, and concerns. At Love Therapy Australia, therapists draw on a range of evidence-informed approaches including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Gottman Method, and psychosexual therapy, depending on what is most useful for the couple.

Do both partners need to attend couples therapy sessions?

Not always. While many couples attend together, sessions are also available for individuals who want to work on relationship patterns, prepare for couples therapy, or explore their situation on their own.

Can couples therapy help after an affair or infidelity?

Couples therapy may support partners after infidelity, including emotional affairs, sexual affairs, and betrayal of agreed boundaries. Therapists at Love Therapy Australia are experienced in working with the impact of affairs, the process of rebuilding trust, and the decision of whether to repair or separate. Sessions are available for both partners together or individually, online across Australia.

Can a couples therapist help with ethical non-monogamy or polyamory? 

Yes. Love Therapy Australia works with couples and individuals in ethically non-monogamous relationships, including polyamory, open relationships, and relationship anarchy. Sessions may support communication, agreements, jealousy, navigating multiple relationships, and relationship transitions. Therapists approach these relationship structures without judgement and with specific experience in this area.

How long does couples therapy usually take?

The number of sessions varies depending on the concerns involved and the pace each couple sets. Some people find a focused block of sessions — for example, six to twelve — useful for a specific concern. Others continue for longer on a fortnightly or monthly basis. There is no minimum or maximum. Many clients find it useful to review progress after a few sessions and adjust from there.

Is couples therapy suitable for same-sex and LGBTQIA+ couples? 

Yes. Love Therapy Australia is an explicitly LGBTQIA+-affirming practice. Therapists are experienced in working with same-sex couples, queer relationships, and the specific concerns LGBTQIA+ couples may bring to therapy, including family-of-origin dynamics, gender transition within a relationship, and navigating a world that may not always affirm the relationship. Sessions are online across Australia.
