With a Little Help Counselling offers face-to-face group relationship skills training.
Join relationship expert Joel Helmes for an eight-week course on how to heal, grow, and excel in your relationship.
Our Relationship Skills Training course runs on Monday nights in Oatley and is a great chance for you to brush up on your skills, learn new skills, practice new strategies and concepts, and invest directly in your precious relationship.
The course, delivered in a classroom setting, will help you better understand, identify, and potentially remedy core relationship issues, including:
- The damage that stress does to our relationships
- Learning about our Dominant Ego States and how they affect our relationships
- Identifying our own and our partners’ traits and vulnerabilities
- How to help our partner experience positive emotions
- Surviving and growing within an Anxious/Avoidant dynamic
- Understanding the Male and Female Brain
- How to use the I’m Ok/I’m Not Ok strategy to build communication and intimacy
- The importance of, and how to provide validating responses to your partner
- Negotiating better outcomes and aiming for Win/Wins
- Breaking cycles that keep us from moving forward in our lives and relationships
- How to better express yourself and your needs
- The huge benefits of Positive Reinforcement
- Breaking the cycle of emotional enmeshment
And much more.
You can be as interactive or passive in the group as you choose.
That means you can get involved directly in the discussion with Joel and the other couples in the group, sharing your struggles or your successes, or you can take a backseat to simply learn and grow together.
The group dynamic is friendly and welcoming, and can be a great place to meet new friends!
Our Relationship Skills Training course is available to both existing Relationship Counselling clients and to new couples looking to grow intimacy and enjoy a more loving and harmonious relationship.
And it is great value for money too. Each 90-minute group session is only $100 for each couple, with a maximum of ten couples. You can pay in advance or week to week.
The next eight-week Relationship Skills Training course starts on the 21st of July 2025, and places are expected to fill quickly.
Each session runs from 7 pm to 8:30 pm.
Our venue for this course is the Oatley Community Hall, which is located at 61 Oatley Avenue in Oatley.
There is plenty of free parking available, and the hall is also located within walking distance of Oatley Train Station.
