Counselling for Relationship Issues in Brighton

Intimate relationships with other people reflect how we see ourselves and how we experience others. Personal relationships are sometimes difficult to manage.

Relationships can be formed with family members, colleagues, neighbours, our partners and almost anyone with whom we have regular contact. While essential, forming and maintaining personal relationships is not always easy.

In recent years, trends in human relationships have changed. We interact and connect with others in a very different way from our ancestors. Generally, people are more independent and financially self-sufficient. Factors like these have influenced how we relate to other people and technology, too, has changed the shape and format of our friendships and relationships.

Problems within personal relationships are common and often surface in counselling and psychotherapy. Many people struggle with intimate relationships and find interacting with other people challenging. Intimacy of any kind is difficult for some people. Perhaps this is one of the reasons social networking has become so popular. The internet allows us to select, assess, accept or reject the people we consider allowing into our lives from a distance.
