75 Years Supporting Relationships In NI

Many people turn to relationship counselling when things have already gotten really bad, and while we can provide support at this stage, we are also here whenever you need. Whether we’re working with you as an individuals, your children, you and your partner or with your entire family, Relate NI work through what we call a relational approach. By that, we mean that human beings rely on their family and social relationships in everyday life. 

Healthy relationships are a great asset and are essential to our health and wellbeing, as well as that of our families. However, when those relationships are not healthy, it can be a risk factor to our health. Working relationally means being aware of the role that our relationships play in maintaining our health and wellbeing.

The service was excellent, my counsellor was really good at getting us to open up and helping us to get to the root of our issues. We have definitely improved our communication since attending.Service Attended
I found the Relationship MOT an excellent method of focusing on how we work as a couple and just as importantly, where we need to work. It was professional, insightful and well worth the time. It has reminded us of how much we have to be proud of in our relationship and why it is so important to occasionally review it with experts.Service AttendedRelationship MOT
I would definitely recommend using the Relationship MOT service as a bit of a check in with your partner. I thought how the counsellor was able to steer the conversation was very insightful and nuanced. The MOT reminded us about why we are great together but also the importance of communication and respect.” “Our counsellor provided an outside perspective which immediately helped us to agree that we needed to stop and think with more kindness and empathy for each other especially when stressed or pissed off. We both felt that our counsellor’s excellent and gentle facilitation was quite invigorating. So many positives!Service AttendedRelationship MOT
