Due to congestion in the social counselling for families with children we respond to Maisa applications and "Tarvitsen apua" (I need help online form) contacts within about a week of receiving the message.

Couples therapy

Couples therapy is intended for parents of families with children who need counselling for challenges in their relationship.

Couples therapy aims to increase the whole family's well-being by nurturing the relationship between the parents. We provide counselling for problems with interaction in the relationship, such as a lack of intimacy or an emotional connection, recurring arguments, the threat of separation or a serious infidelity crisis.

The work includes assessment, advice, psychotherapeutic support, or short-term therapeutic couples psychotherapy. We hope both spouses attend the therapy visits.

If you and your spouse are interested in couples therapy, send us a message in Maisa, call social counselling for families with children, or use the 'Need help?' online form.

If you send us a message via Maisa, we will respond to you within three working days. If we cannot reach you by phone, we will send you a reply in Maisa.

The service is free of charge.
