Is it possible to secure my iMessages by removing device from my Apple account?

My partner has my old Mac book. I have realized that they have access to my iMessages. If I remove the device from my account will they still be able to use the computer for work? Google docs, drive, slides the internet is the main use on thistle device.

You need to remove yourself from the device; then your partner can set it up as THEIR’s with their own unique AppleID.
