When it comes to couples counselling, the best psychologists in Melbourne know that often one partner is happy to do counselling, while the other can be a reluctant participant.
In these cases they may be sceptical about the value of therapy, perhaps they are afraid of what might come out, or of finding themselves in a ‘two against one’ situation, and being unable to defend themselves in an unfamiliar environment.
