A relationship will always have its ups and downs, and a few quarrels are going to be inevitable throughout the course of your married life. But if the disagreements are getting out of hand and there doesn’t seem to be any way to save things, you can consider signing up for marriage counselling.
It doesn’t mean that your relationship has failed – it just means that you’re getting a little extra help from an unbiased, trained professional who might be able to teach you how to approach and resolve your issues more effectively. In fact, the very act of you seeking out external aid is a sign that you’re determined to make things work.
Here are some marriage counselling services in Singapore you can look into:

Listening Ear Counselling & Consultancy is a one-stop therapy centre that provides personalised, culturally sensitive care for couples. Led by Karl deSouza, a globally accredited therapist with over 20 years of experience, they offer continuity of care so clients never have to repeat their story with different therapists. They address relationship challenges such as infidelity, trust issues, communication breakdowns, mismatched libidos, intimacy concerns, cultural or interfaith conflict, in-law stress, parenting differences, life transitions, and unresolved trauma – including addiction.
At the heart of their approach is the belief that the person is not the problem, it’s often the situation or how one copes with it that needs attention. Karl believes that “couples don’t need fixing – they need understanding. Every conflict reflects longing, unmet needs, and hope.” The therapy at Listening Ear Counselling & Consultancy is holistic, affirming, and collaborative, welcoming couples of all races, religions, and orientations while honouring their unique cultural dynamics.
As part of their couple counselling services, a blend of top-down and bottom-up techniques – such as emotionally focused couples therapy (EFCT), the Gottman Method, nonviolent communication (NVC), Satir Therapy, and solution-focused approaches like Narrative and Choice Therapy – are integrated. Meanwhile, trauma-informed modalities such as EMDR, MEMI, brainspotting, and somatic experiencing support body-based healing. Couples gain practical tools and engage in experiential work within a safe, non-judgmental space – allowing them to reconnect, be vulnerable, and rediscover hope.

As you transition from newly-weds to parents, they also provide counselling services to help alleviate the stress and anxiety of parenting and improve your relationship with your spouse and children. While they have a variety of locations and services islandwide, couples can head to their Counselling Centre, located in Toa Payoh, for their marital and familial related services.
Price: $120/session inclusive of subsidies
Care Corner Counselling Centre review: “Care Corner Counselling service is probably one of the most affordable yet professional services around. They have trained therapists with decades of experience. For example, their marriage therapist uses the Emotionally Focused Therapy method, which is different from the Gottman method and can sometimes be more effective.”

With a team of multilingual counsellors and psychologists familiar, Alliance Counselling welcomes everyone, no matter what your background is.
They utilise the Gottman method in their therapy for couples – it’s a research-backed approach centred all around collaborative connection. You’ll first have to go through a relationship assessment before filling out an evaluation form and each attending an individual session. Then, you return together for a joint discussion and set goals together as a couple so that you can build better mutual understanding and work through any conflicts.
Additionally, for those looking for a more intense course, they offer a more focused programme in their Marathon Couples Therapy. This is a 2-day session that lasts between 6 and 7 hours each day, giving couples the time to unpack and deal with their issues. It might sound like a lot, but it provides couples the opportunity to tackle problems at the root and leave past baggage behind – suitable for those who are experiencing tough issues like infidelity. The end goal is for you to go home with a deeper level of trust and closeness, working towards a greater commitment towards the marriage.
You may also opt for optional follow-ups via video call to make sure you’re staying on the right track.
Price: From $392.40 per 80-minute session

Counselling is not a one-size-fits-all endeavour, which is why The Enneagram Singapore makes use of the Enneagram test to work out each individual’s personality in order to more effectively cater to them. From this, the couple can gain insight into how their own habits can affect the relationship positively or negatively. You’ll also learn ways to strengthen the relationship and maintain healthy sexual intimacy.
Those who are suffering the pain of infidelity-related trauma can also engage their Affair Counselling services.
Their website has tons of resources like videos, relationship tools, and advice for various relationship issues, be it communication issues or feeling stuck. But, of course, it’s best to head down for a session to talk to their trained staff in person.
Even if you’re not in need of a counselling session, you can try taking their free relationship trust quiz to gain more insights into your marriage.
Price: $150 per 90-hour session
