Couples Therapy at Drummoyne Psychology
Couples Therapy Sydney
Rebuilding Connection, Strengthening Relationships
My name is Alexa Young
Every relationship experiences challenges. Even strong, loving couples can find themselves caught in patterns of conflict, emotional distance, misunderstanding, or feeling more like housemates than partners. Life's many pressures, including work, parenting, financial stress, health concerns, major life transitions, or recovering from betrayal, can gradually erode the sense of connection that once felt effortless.
Seeking couples therapy is not a sign that your relationship has failed. Rather, it reflects a willingness to understand one another more deeply, strengthen your relationship, and invest in a healthier future together. Many couples tell us they wish they had sought support sooner, before communication became so difficult or resentment had built over time.
At Drummoyne Psychology, we believe that every relationship has a unique story. Rather than viewing conflict as the problem itself, we see it as a signal that important emotional needs, communication patterns, or relationship dynamics require attention. Our role is not to determine who is "right" or "wrong", but to help both partners understand each other's experiences, navigate differences with greater compassion, and develop practical skills that foster trust, emotional safety, and lasting connection.
Our Psychologists provide evidence-based couples therapy for adults from across Sydney and the Inner West, including Drummoyne, Balmain, Five Dock, Gladesville, Leichhardt, Haberfield, Concord, Abbotsford, Ryde and surrounding suburbs.
We work with couples experiencing a wide range of relationship concerns, including:
-
Frequent conflict or recurring arguments
-
Communication difficulties
-
Emotional distance or loss of intimacy
-
Recovering from infidelity or rebuilding trust
-
Parenting and family stress
-
Differences in values, goals or life direction
-
Life transitions such as becoming parents, retirement or illness
-
The impact of anxiety, depression, ADHD or trauma on relationships
-
Navigating separation or deciding whether to remain together
-
Strengthening already healthy relationships and preparing for marriage or long-term commitment
Our approach integrates well-established, evidence-based psychological therapies with our own relationship framework, The My Love Your Love® Couples Therapy System, developed through many years of clinical practice, research, teaching and working alongside couples. This framework helps us understand not only the difficulties couples are experiencing today, but also the underlying relationship patterns that contribute to disconnection over time. Therapy is tailored to the unique strengths, challenges and goals of each couple, recognising that no two relationships are the same.
Whether your relationship is in crisis or you simply want to strengthen your connection, couples therapy provides a safe, supportive and structured space to slow down, understand one another more deeply, and move towards the kind of relationship you both want to create.
On this page, you'll learn what couples therapy involves, when it may be helpful, what to expect in your first appointment, how evidence-based relationship therapy works, and how to choose a couples therapist who is the right fit for you. Our goal is to help you make an informed decision about whether couples therapy is the right next step for your relationship.
Our Approach: The My Love Your Love Couples Therapy System
The Directors of Drummoyne Psychology, Helen and Shahn, have created a comprehensive couples program. This program consists of face-to-face couples therapy, the couples coaching app My Love Your Love, and The 8 Love Links book which is the theory behind both the app and therapy.
Feeling dissatisfied with other couples therapy approaches, and client feedback that traditional methods had them going round and round in circles, Helen and Shahn began their mission. They formulated a complete couples therapy program drawing on theory and strategies from different psychological theories. Their couples program provided the much needed structure and practical skills for couples to get the most out of their sessions to quickly improve their relationships.
Doing couples therapy at Drummoyne Psychology looks a little different. Upon booking in with one of our Clinical Psychologists, trained in this unique approach, you and your partner will download the My Love Your Love app and be provided with a copy of The 8 Love Links to read at home. You will work together to navigate your particular issues with the support of a professional, then practise the skills outside of session using the app.
One session with a professional every week or so is not enough to create lasting change in your relationship. You and your partner will be guided to work together outside of session time to create the kind of relationship you have dreamed of and deserve.

Being a tool for therapy, your assigned homework can be completed using the app.
If you're not quite ready for couples therapy then the app is a good option for you. It is a self-service coaching program so you don’t need a therapist to use it.
The app is designed to enhance all relationships. You don’t have to be struggling in your relationship to get amazing benefits from the app.
The 8 Love Links is the theory behind both the app and therapy. It is a great option for those who want to take action immediately.
The 8 Love Links can be a solo journey or you can invite your partner along.
The book offers relatable anecdotes and tangible steps for readers to explore the intricate dynamics of love, understanding how family influences and past relationships shape present behaviour and emotional responses.
What is couples therapy?
Couples therapy (also known as relationship counselling or marriage counselling) is a specialised form of psychological therapy that helps couples understand their relationship more deeply, improve communication, resolve conflict, rebuild trust, and strengthen emotional connection. Whether you are dating, engaged, married, living together, separated, or navigating a significant life transition, couples therapy provides a structured and supportive space to work towards a healthier, more fulfilling relationship.
At Drummoyne Psychology, we believe that relationship difficulties rarely arise because one person is "the problem." Instead, challenges usually develop through patterns of interaction that have evolved over time. Couples often find themselves having the same argument repeatedly, feeling misunderstood despite trying to communicate, or becoming increasingly disconnected without fully understanding why. These patterns can leave both partners feeling frustrated, lonely and uncertain about how to move forward.
Couples therapy helps partners step out of these unhelpful cycles and develop a greater understanding of themselves, each other, and the relationship they are creating together. Rather than focusing on blame, therapy explores the thoughts, emotions, experiences and unmet needs that may be contributing to conflict or disconnection. As understanding grows, couples can begin developing new ways of communicating, responding to one another, and navigating challenges as a team.
Couples therapy is about more than communication
Many people believe couples therapy is simply about learning better communication skills. While communication is certainly important, it is often only the visible part of a much deeper process.
Relationships are influenced by many interconnected factors, including emotional safety, trust, attachment patterns, life experiences, values, stress, parenting demands, physical health, mental health, intimacy, and each partner's expectations of the relationship. Effective couples therapy explores these broader influences to understand not only what is happening between partners, but why those patterns have developed and how they can be changed.
Every relationship is unique
No two relationships are the same. Some couples seek therapy because they are experiencing ongoing conflict or recovering from an affair. Others want support navigating major life changes such as becoming parents, blending families, retirement, chronic illness, or caring responsibilities. Some couples simply want to strengthen an already healthy relationship, improve their communication, or prepare for marriage and future challenges.
Our Psychologists tailor therapy to each couple's unique circumstances, recognising that there is no single approach that suits every relationship. Together, we develop a shared understanding of your relationship, identify your goals, and work collaboratively towards meaningful and lasting change.
Couples therapy is a place for both partners
One of the most common concerns people have before attending couples therapy is that the psychologist will decide who is right and who is wrong. In reality, effective couples therapy is not about taking sides or assigning blame.
Your psychologist's role is to create a safe, balanced and respectful environment where both partners feel heard and understood. We work to understand each person's perspective, recognise the strengths within the relationship, and help couples develop new ways of relating that foster empathy, emotional safety and mutual understanding.
An evidence-based approach to strengthening relationships
Research consistently shows that evidence-based couples therapy can help many couples improve relationship satisfaction, communication, emotional intimacy and problem-solving skills. Early support often leads to better outcomes, but therapy can also be valuable for couples who have experienced significant challenges and want to explore whether their relationship can be repaired and strengthened.
At Drummoyne Psychology, our Psychologists integrate evidence-based psychological therapies with our own relationship framework, the My Love Your Love Couples Therapy System, to help couples understand the deeper patterns influencing their relationship and create meaningful, sustainable change. Our goal is not simply to reduce conflict, but to help couples build stronger, healthier and more connected relationships for the future.
When should couples seek therapy?
One of the most common questions we hear is, "Is it too early for couples therapy?" Closely followed by, "Have we left it too late?" The truth is that there is no "right" time to seek couples therapy. Relationships naturally experience periods of stress, conflict and change. Seeking support is not a sign that your relationship is failing, it is often a sign that you both value your relationship enough to invest in it.
Many couples wait months or even years before reaching out for help, hoping that difficulties will resolve on their own. Unfortunately, unresolved relationship patterns often become more entrenched over time. Misunderstandings can turn into recurring arguments, emotional distance may gradually increase, and feelings of hurt or resentment can accumulate. Early intervention can help couples understand these patterns before they become deeply established, making it easier to restore connection and strengthen the relationship.
Couples therapy can be beneficial at many different stages of a relationship. Some couples seek support during times of crisis, while others attend therapy proactively to strengthen an already healthy relationship or prepare for future challenges. Whatever brings you to therapy, our aim is to help you better understand one another, navigate difficulties more effectively, and build a relationship that feels secure, respectful and fulfilling.
Couples often seek therapy when they are experiencing:
-
Frequent arguments or recurring conflicts that never seem to be resolved.
-
Communication difficulties, feeling misunderstood, or struggling to express thoughts and emotions.
-
Emotional distance, loneliness or feeling more like housemates than partners.
-
A loss of intimacy, affection or sexual connection.
-
Recovering from infidelity, breaches of trust or emotional affairs. An affair can profoundly affect a relationship and may leave couples struggling with trust, communication, intimacy and uncertainty about the future. Our psychologists provide specialised support for couples navigating the aftermath of infidelity. Learn more about our Affair Recovery Therapy in Sydney.

Couples therapy isn't only for relationships in crisis
Many couples attend therapy before significant problems develop. Just as people invest time in maintaining their physical health, relationships also benefit from ongoing care and attention. Some couples seek therapy to improve communication, strengthen emotional intimacy, prepare for marriage, navigate important life transitions, or learn skills that help them manage future challenges together. Seeking support early can help prevent small issues from becoming larger, more complex relationship difficulties.
Every relationship deserves the opportunity to grow
There is no perfect relationship. Every couple will encounter periods of stress, disagreement and change throughout their lives together. What often distinguishes resilient relationships is not the absence of conflict, but the willingness to understand one another, adapt, repair after difficulties and continue growing together.
Whether you have been together for two years or thirty, whether your relationship feels strained or simply in need of renewed connection, couples therapy provides an opportunity to slow down, gain new perspectives, and work collaboratively towards the kind of relationship you both want to create.
If you are wondering whether couples therapy could help your relationship, that question alone is often worth exploring. You do not need to wait until things feel unbearable before seeking support.
Signs your relationship might benefit from couples therapy
Every relationship experiences periods of stress, conflict and change. Disagreements are a normal part of sharing your life with another person, and no relationship is free from challenges. The difference is not whether conflict occurs, but how couples understand, respond to and repair after these difficult moments. If you recognise one or more of the signs below, it does not necessarily mean your relationship is failing. Rather, it may indicate that your relationship could benefit from additional support, greater understanding and new ways of navigating challenges together.
You keep having the same arguments
Do your disagreements feel like they are on repeat? Perhaps the topic changes, but the conversation always ends in the same frustration, misunderstanding or emotional distance. Recurring arguments often reflect deeper relationship patterns rather than the issue being discussed. Couples therapy helps identify these underlying patterns so that you can move beyond repetitive conflict and develop healthier ways of communicating and resolving differences.
You feel emotionally disconnected
You may still love each other, but no longer feel emotionally close. Conversations have become brief or practical, affection has reduced, or you find yourselves living more like housemates than intimate partners. Emotional disconnection often develops gradually and can leave both partners feeling lonely, even while sharing the same home. Therapy provides an opportunity to rebuild emotional closeness, strengthen understanding and reconnect with one another.
Communication has become difficult
Perhaps conversations quickly escalate into arguments, one or both of you withdraw, or you avoid discussing important issues altogether because it feels too hard. Effective communication is about more than speaking and listening. It also involves understanding emotions, responding with empathy and creating enough emotional safety for both partners to express themselves openly.
Trust has been damaged
Trust can be affected by many experiences, including infidelity, emotional affairs, dishonesty, secrecy, broken promises or repeated disappointments. Although rebuilding trust can feel overwhelming, many couples are able to repair and strengthen their relationship when both partners are committed to understanding what has happened, taking responsibility where appropriate and working towards meaningful change.
You feel more like housemates than partners
Busy lives, parenting, work demands and daily responsibilities can gradually take priority over the relationship itself. Over time, couples may find that they spend very little meaningful time together and feel more like teammates managing life than romantic partners. Couples therapy helps partners intentionally reconnect, strengthen emotional intimacy and create opportunities for shared enjoyment and closeness again.
Resentment is building
Unresolved hurts, disappointments or feeling consistently unheard can gradually develop into resentment. Left unaddressed, resentment often makes it increasingly difficult to communicate openly, respond with warmth or assume positive intentions.
Therapy provides a safe space to explore these experiences, understand each other's perspectives and begin repairing emotional injuries before resentment becomes more deeply entrenched.
Life changes are placing pressure on your relationship
Relationships are continually adapting to life's changes. Becoming parents, blending families, changing careers, financial pressures, illness, caring responsibilities, menopause, retirement or children leaving home can all create new challenges for couples. These transitions are not signs that something is wrong with your relationship. However, they often require couples to develop new ways of supporting one another and navigating changing roles together.
Individual challenges are affecting the relationship
Anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, chronic illness, grief and other mental health or physical health difficulties can significantly influence how couples relate to one another. Couples therapy helps partners better understand the impact these experiences may be having on the relationship while developing practical ways to strengthen connection, communication and mutual support.
You're wondering whether therapy might help
Sometimes there isn't one major issue. Instead, there is simply a feeling that something has changed, that you're drifting apart, or that your relationship could be stronger than it currently feels. You do not need to reach a crisis point before seeking support. Many couples attend therapy because they want to invest in their relationship, deepen their understanding of one another and build the skills needed for a healthy and resilient partnership.
Seeking couples therapy is not about proving that something is wrong with your relationship. It is about recognising that relationships require care, attention and ongoing investment. If you recognise your relationship in any of the situations above, couples therapy can provide the opportunity to better understand one another, strengthen your connection and move forward together with greater confidence and hope.
Couples Therapy After Infidelity
Infidelity can profoundly affect a relationship, leaving couples struggling with trust, emotional connection, communication and uncertainty about the future. Whether you are recovering from a physical affair, emotional affair or another significant breach of trust, professional support can help you understand what has happened and determine how to move forward. At Drummoyne Psychology, we provide affair recovery therapy in Sydney and the Inner West, supporting couples through the difficult process of rebuilding trust, processing the impact of betrayal and creating a stronger foundation for their relationship.

Does couples therapy work?
This is one of the most common questions couples ask before reaching out for support. The short answer is yes, research consistently shows that evidence-based couples therapy can help many couples improve communication, strengthen emotional connection, rebuild trust, increase relationship satisfaction and develop healthier ways of navigating conflict. However, like any form of psychological therapy, couples therapy is not a quick fix or a passive process. Lasting change does not occur simply by attending appointments. It develops through honest conversations, self-reflection, a willingness to understand one another, and practising new ways of relating both within and between sessions.
At Drummoyne Psychology, we see couples therapy as a collaborative process. Your psychologist brings expertise in understanding relationship dynamics, while you and your partner bring the knowledge, experiences and strengths of your relationship. Together, we work to understand the patterns that have developed, identify the changes you want to make, and build practical strategies that support a healthier and more connected relationship.
What makes couples therapy successful?
Although every relationship is different, couples tend to experience the greatest benefit from therapy when both partners are:
-
Open to reflecting on their own thoughts, emotions and behaviours, rather than focusing solely on changing their partner.
-
Willing to participate actively in the therapeutic process.
-
Prepared to listen with curiosity and openness, even when conversations feel challenging.
-
Committed to practising new ways of communicating and relating outside of therapy sessions.
-
Motivated to work towards shared relationship goals, while recognising that meaningful change takes time.
Importantly, this does not mean that you need to agree on everything before starting therapy. In fact, many couples begin therapy feeling hurt, frustrated or uncertain about the future of their relationship. Therapy provides a structured space to explore these experiences safely and respectfully, even when partners have different perspectives or hopes for the relationship.
What if one partner is less enthusiastic about therapy?
It is common for one partner to feel more motivated to attend therapy than the other. Some people worry about being blamed, judged or pressured to change, while others are simply unsure whether therapy will help. Our role is not to take sides or determine who is right or wrong. Instead, we work to understand each person's perspective and create a balanced environment where both partners feel heard, respected and supported. As therapy progresses, many initially hesitant partners report feeling more comfortable as they experience a process that is collaborative, practical and focused on helping the relationship rather than criticising either individual.
When couples therapy may be less effective
Couples therapy is most effective when both partners are willing to engage honestly and respectfully in the process. If one or both partners are unwilling to attend sessions, refuse to reflect on their own contribution to relationship patterns, or are not prepared to consider change, meaningful progress will be limited.
There are also situations where couples therapy may not be the most appropriate starting point. For example, where there is ongoing family violence, coercive control, active substance dependence, or another issue that significantly affects emotional or physical safety, these concerns may need to be addressed before or alongside couples therapy. During your initial assessment, your psychologist will discuss your circumstances and recommend the most appropriate course of support.
Investing in your relationship
Relationships require ongoing care, attention and effort. Just as we invest in our physical health or professional development, investing in the health of our relationship can have lasting benefits for both partners and, where relevant, for children and families. Couples therapy is not about achieving a "perfect" relationship. It is about helping couples better understand one another, strengthen emotional connection, navigate challenges more effectively and create a relationship that reflects their shared values and goals. For couples who are willing to engage openly in the process, therapy can provide an opportunity for meaningful growth, deeper understanding and lasting positive change.
The most successful couples in therapy are not those who never disagree... they are the couples who are willing to understand themselves, understand each other, and practise new ways of relating.
What happens in your first session?
Starting couples therapy can feel like a significant step, and it's natural to wonder what to expect during your first appointment. Many couples tell us they feel nervous before attending, particularly if they are worried about being judged, misunderstood, or unsure how the session will unfold.
At Drummoyne Psychology, the first session is designed to help both partners feel heard while giving your psychologist the opportunity to develop a comprehensive understanding of your relationship. Rather than trying to solve every problem in the first appointment, this session focuses on assessment and formulation, building a shared picture of your relationship, understanding the challenges you are facing, and identifying the goals you hope to achieve through therapy.
Both partners are given the opportunity to share their perspective
One of the most important aspects of the first session is ensuring that each partner has the opportunity to speak openly about their experiences, concerns and hopes for the relationship. Your psychologist will invite both of you to share your perspective, recognising that every relationship has two valid experiences. The aim is not to determine who is right or wrong, but to understand how each person experiences the relationship and how these perspectives interact. Feeling heard and understood is often an important first step towards meaningful change.
We build a snapshot of your relationship
During the assessment, your psychologist will ask questions about many different aspects of your relationship. Rather than focusing on one issue in depth, the conversation will move across a range of topics to develop an overall understanding, or a "snapshot" of your relationship. This may include discussing:
-
The strengths within your relationship.
-
The concerns that have brought you to therapy.
-
Your communication patterns.
-
Areas of conflict or recurring arguments.
-
Emotional and physical intimacy.
-
Relationship traumas.
-
Parenting or family dynamics.
-
Significant life events or transitions.
-
Individual factors that may be influencing the relationship, such as stress, mental health, ADHD or past experiences.
-
Your hopes and goals for therapy.
This broad overview helps your psychologist begin understanding the patterns within your relationship and informs the direction of future therapy sessions.
We see couples together
At Drummoyne Psychology, couples are seen together throughout the therapy process rather than attending individual sessions separately. Working together allows your psychologist to observe your relationship in real time, understand how you interact as a couple, and support both partners in developing new ways of communicating and responding to one another within the therapy room. It also reinforces that couples therapy is focused on the relationship itself, rather than viewing one person as the problem.
If, during the course of therapy, your psychologist believes that additional individual support would be beneficial for either partner, this will be discussed collaboratively and appropriate recommendations can be made.
Introducing The 8 Love Links
As part of your first appointment, you will receive a copy of The 8 Love Links, our relationship framework developed through many years of clinical practice and working with couples. The framework provides a practical way of understanding the key elements that contribute to healthy, resilient relationships and helps guide the work we do together throughout therapy. Many couples find that it offers a helpful language for understanding both their strengths and the areas they would like to strengthen.
Access to the My Love Your Love app
You will also receive complimentary access to the My Love Your Love app, which has been developed to support couples between therapy sessions. The app includes practical exercises, guided reflections and relationship-building activities that reinforce the work completed in therapy and encourage couples to continue developing insight, communication and connection in their everyday lives. Many couples find that using the app between sessions helps maintain momentum and provides opportunities to put new skills into practice.
Beginning your journey together
The first session is not about having all the answers or resolving every difficulty immediately. Instead, it is about creating a safe, respectful and collaborative foundation for the work ahead. By the end of your first appointment, your psychologist will have developed an initial understanding of your relationship, you will have had the opportunity to share your experiences and goals, and together you will begin developing a plan for moving forward. From there, therapy focuses on helping you better understand one another, strengthen your relationship, and create meaningful, lasting change.

A unique relationship framework: The My Love Your Love Couples Therapy System
One of the features that sets Drummoyne Psychology apart is The My Love Your Love Couples Therapy System, our relationship framework developed through many years of clinical practice, research and working alongside couples.
Rather than focusing only on the problems that bring couples to therapy, The My Love Your Love Couples Therapy System helps identify the essential foundations that support healthy, resilient and satisfying relationships. This framework provides a practical roadmap for understanding relationship strengths, recognising areas of disconnection, and guiding meaningful and lasting change. Therapy offers couples a shared language for understanding their relationship and helps shape the work completed both in and between sessions.

Couples also receive a copy of The 8 Love Links®, providing a valuable resource they can continue referring to throughout their relationship journey.
Evidence-based, personalised care
No two relationships are the same. We do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to couples therapy. Your psychologist will develop an individualised formulation that considers the unique history, strengths, challenges and goals of your relationship. Therapy is tailored to your circumstances and evolves as your relationship develops, ensuring that the work remains relevant, meaningful and focused on the outcomes that matter most to you.
A balanced and respectful approach
Many couples worry that the therapist will take sides or decide who is responsible for the relationship difficulties.
Our role is not to judge, assign blame or determine who is "right" or "wrong." Instead, we work to understand each partner's perspective, identify the interaction patterns that contribute to relationship distress, and help both individuals feel heard, respected and understood. We believe that creating a safe and balanced therapeutic environment is essential for meaningful progress.
Investing in lasting relationship change
Our aim is not simply to help couples reduce conflict, but to help them build stronger foundations for the future. Whether you are seeking support during a difficult period, rebuilding trust after a significant challenge, or wanting to strengthen an already healthy relationship, we are committed to helping you develop the insight, skills and confidence needed to create lasting change. At Drummoyne Psychology, couples therapy is more than resolving problems, it is an opportunity to better understand one another, deepen emotional connection, and build a relationship that reflects your shared values, hopes and future together.
