Hi, I’m Michelle and I’m so glad you’re here.  I'm right here with you, I’ve been on the other side of the couples therapy couch and know how vulnerable it can feel.

ABOUT ME Brisbane Couples Counsellor

I'm Michelle Janssen, a Gottman-trained couples counsellor based in Paddington, Brisbane. I specialise in affair recovery and recurring conflict cycles, and I work primarily with couples in their 20s and 30s who are serious about their relationship and ready to do something about it. I work with couples at all kinds of crossroads: recovering from an affair, stuck in the same arguments, navigating the decision about whether to have children, or preparing for the transition to parenthood and wanting to get your relationship right before everything changes.  I won’t just sit back and watch you argue the same old way, you can do that for free at home.  You’ll talk to me, sure, but my priority is helping you have better conversations with your partner. Every session comes with a purpose, I want you to walk away with something new to practice. And yes, I’m pretty straightforward. You’re here because something needs to shift, and I’m here to help make that happen. I’ll tell you what I see, but always with kindness and respect. My goal is to give you the skills to thrive as a couple, so well that you either no longer need me or just check in for the occasional tune up.
