Couple Up is modern, coaching-led relationship support for married and committed couples who do not want to stay stuck in the same arguments, patterns or emotional distance.
Led by Simon Middleton, an ICF ACC coach and Gottman-certified relationship coach, Couple Up combines relationship science, communication assessments, coaching tools and practical weekly action.
This is not open-ended talking with no direction.
It is a structured, assessment-led programme designed to help you understand what is not working, change the patterns keeping you stuck and rebuild the relationship you both want.
Is this starting to feel familiar?
You keep having the same arguments.
One or both of you feel unheard.
Communication has become tense, defensive or distant.
You feel more like housemates than partners.
Small things quickly become big conversations.
You want help, but you want something practical, structured and action-focused.
You do not need to have everything figured out before you start.
You just need to be willing to show up, listen honestly and try a different way forward.
Built for modern relationships
Modern relationships carry a lot. Work pressure, parenting, digital overload, emotional fatigue, different communication styles, changing expectations and the feeling that there is never enough space to properly talk.
Couple Up is built for couples living in the real world.The work is practical, private and future-focused. We do not just look at what has gone wrong. We look at what needs to change, how each partner communicates and what the relationship needs to become stronger from here.
The goal is not to go back to who you used to be.The goal is to build a better version of the relationship you both want now.
Who Couple Up is for
Couple Up is for married and committed couples who:
Are considering marriage
counselling or couples
counselling
Want online relationship support
Live in Singapore, Australia, Dubai or Hong Kong
Want practical tools, not vague advice
Are willing to do the work between sessions
Want to communicate better and reconnect
Couple Up may not be suitable where there is active abuse, coercive control, addiction crisis, severe mental health risk or immediate safety concerns. In those situations, specialist clinical, medical or crisis support may be more appropriate.
Marriage counselling support with a coaching-led approach
Many couples search for marriage counselling or couples counselling because they know something needs to change.
Couple Up offers relationship support through a coaching-led approach. The work is practical, structured and focused on helping you communicate more clearly, understand each other better and rebuild the relationship as a team.
This is not about blame.
It is about identifying the patterns keeping you stuck and learning new ways to listen, speak, repair and reconnect.
The Couple Up 7-Week Programme
A focused online relationship reset for couples who want practical progress without months of open-ended sessions
7 weeks.
8 sessions.
Clear Clarity.
The programme includes two sessions in week one, individual sessions with each partner, joint couple sessions and weekly actions to practise between sessions.
Assessment-led, not guesswork.
We look at how each partner communicates, handles conflict, expresses needs, responds under pressure and repairs after difficult conversations. We also explore values, relationship patterns and what each person wants the relationship to feel like again.
Practical tools for real life.
You will work with communication tools, practical exercises, relationship profiling and Gottman-certified frameworks designed to help you listen better, speak more clearly and reconnect as a team.
Sessions are 100% online for couples in Singapore, Australia, Dubai, Hong Kong and other international locations by arrangement.
Meet SIMON
I am Simon Middleton, an ICF ACC coach, Gottman-certified relationship coach and founder of Couple Up.
For years, I worked with leaders, teams and global organisations, helping people communicate better, lead with more self-awareness and create healthier working relationships.
Over time, I noticed many coaching conversations were not just about work. They were about stress, communication, emotional pressure, feeling unseen and trying to hold everything together at home.
I have also lived this personally. I have been divorced, I am now happily remarried, and I know what it feels like to look back and wish I had been given more practical relationship tools earlier.
That is why I created Couple Up: to help couples have the conversations they keep avoiding and rebuild the respect and connection strong relationships need.
Why Couple Up feels different
Couple Up is not open-ended relationship talk. It is a modern, assessment-led 7-week relationship reset designed to help couples understand what is not working, communicate more clearly and move back towards the relationship they actually want.
Results-focused
The focus is practical progress: clearer conversations, stronger respect, better repair and more connection.
Assessment-led
We look at how each partner communicates, handles conflict, expresses needs and responds under pressure, so the work is based on your real relationship patterns.
Future-focused
We do not stay stuck in the past. We use what has happened to understand the pattern, then focus on what needs to change from here.
Practical between sessions
You leave with tools, scripts, exercises and weekly actions to use in real life, not just insight from the session.
Individual and joint support
Each partner has space to be heard individually before we bring the work back into joint sessions.
Gottman-certified frameworks
The programme uses Gottman-certified relationship frameworks alongside coaching tools, communication assessments, values work and practical relationship exercises.
Relationship growth plan
By the end of the programme, you leave with a clearer understanding of your patterns and a practical plan for how to keep building communication, respect and connection.
