At The Henry Centre we look to help those who find themselves in destructive relationships that require substantial and difficult work if they are to be changed into something healthy. Destructive relationships by definition are emotionally and sometimes physically damaging to either one or both partners. 

Healthy relationships contribute to our self-esteem and can be emotionally rewarding where as destructive relationships can damage your self-worth and be energy draining. Healthy relationships involve  level of mutual caring, respect, and compassion as well as an interest in our partner’s welfare and growth.

You will both have an ability to share control and decision-making, in short, a shared desire for each other’s happiness. A destructive relationship is not a safe place for either partner to be in. These relationships are usually characterised by insecurity, self-centeredness, dominance, and control. By putting ourselves in these relationships time and time again we risk our very being.
