Great Couples Counselling in Wembley, AB. Therapy to heal relationships.

In my work I am enabling couples to resolve disagreements, or agree to disagree, without becoming disconnected or abusive. Given that different couples might need different types of intervention, the mechanisms of change vary accordingly. Therefore, in order to achieve change and enable growth, I am using an integrative approach, which I tailor to suit the needs, experiences, and personal circumstances of the couple.

In couples therapy, I draw from both Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help partners reconnect, understand each other, and build hope for the future. I create a space where partners can express their needs, emotions, and vulnerabilities in a way that deepens their emotional connection. Together, we work on strengthening their bond by identifying negative cycles and helping them respond to each other’s emotional needs with compassion and understanding. By combining these approaches, I help couples build trust, improve communication, and develop a more secure, loving connection that fosters lasting hope and growth.

Creating stronger relationships through the research- based Gottman approach. Couples who wish to develop a deeper awareness and connection in their relationships will benefit in using E- Counselling to enhance communication and bonding. Often when we are in a face to face conversation we are thinking of our next response rather than allowing the other person to be understood. Using a secure and completely confidential web based Gottman trained counsellor will help break down the barriers of communication and improve relationship dynamics. Couples can expect more understanding, respect and intimacy in their relationship. LGBT relationships are welcome.

I was once told there are five things couples argue about: chores, parenting, finances, sex, and time. Whether this is true or not, the underlying cause is usually the same - communication. We often assume that people just 'figure out' how to communicate with one another but that is not necessarily the case. By learning proper communication techniques, couples can learn how to identify the root cause of their problems rather than having the same surface argument over and over again. And yes, we have all been there. By learning how to communicate with your significant other, it does not matter what you are arguing about, the two of you will be able to solve it!

Keystone Child and Family Therapy offers counseling for couples. Counseling may include healthy communication, premarital counseling, coping with mental or physical illness in relationships, concerns with blended families, affairs, the impact of depression and anxiety in relationships, grief and loss, and facilitating deeper more meaningful relationships.

TJ Mackenzie works primarily from an attachment theory-based position while incorporating aspects of emotions focused therapy (EFT), and internal family systems (IFS) theory. For couple’s work, TJ incorporates aspects of Gottman method couples counselling and emotion focused couples’ therapy (EFCT) into his clinical work. Using these methods can be incredibly helpful when working through relational dynamics.

What are the most common couples' issues? If you are thinking "communication, conflict, sex, money, child rearing" you are correct. However, most therapists will go after the symptom on each side of the couple fence thinking that the way to effective change is by getting each party to "work" on their respective "issue". Many times the parties don’t agree but comply. Imagine if you could align the unconscious brains of a couple and stop the "working on your issues" part that has become so popular in therapy settings?
