The Business of Marriage
There is a way to live a happy marriage life but we need to learn how. Love is not just a feeling, is work in progress!
Mr Leonardo Talpo
Counselor
“A 20 years experienced Marriage Counsellor working predominantly with married couples and in pre-marital counselling for young couples. Specialised also in general counselling for individuals. ”
About Me
Drawing on 15 years’ experience, I predominantly guide married couples to strengthen their relationships. I also offer pre-marital Counseling for young couples, helping them build solid foundations. My Master in Social Science (Counseling) underpins this work. Sessions provide a focused space to navigate common challenges and explore individual concerns. Clients find my extensive experience valuable in understanding relationship complexities.
Approach
Working with couples and those preparing to commit, I focus on practical patterns and small, sustainable shifts that change everyday interactions. In Singapore I offer English and Italian sessions, face-to-face or online, keeping a steady pace and a clear agenda tailored to your situation. Sessions mix brief skill practice, reflective questions and targeted between-session tasks to rebuild trust, improve communication and clarify expectations. People seeking structured, hands-on support to strengthen partnership routines tend to find this way of working helpful.
