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.

Loving, successful relationships need to be carefully and skillfully nurtured in the following five areas: Emotional, Intellectual, Spiritual, Sexual, Financial. Couples who are ready to do ongoing work on their relationships are richly rewarded with a loving, meaningful and joyful life together. Committed relationships that have the possibility of morphing into long term relationships benefit greatly by being guided by the Gottman research on relationships as well as Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). Premarital Counselling prepares a couple for a new stage in their relationship by identifying potential areas of conflict and strength and developing tools to create a strong foundation.

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.

Do you feel disconnected from your partner? Lonely? Angry? Hurt? Do you long for the relationship you once had, versus the one it has become? If any of these statements ring true, you’d likely benefit from couples counselling. Trained in the research-based Gottman Method, the Bader-Pearson Developmental Model, Terry Real’s Relational Life Therapy and more, I help you rebuild your friendship and intimacy, learn how to manage conflict effectively, restore trust, and create a shared vision for your lives together.

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!

Couples often get stuck in their relationships - they disconnect. The good news is that reconnection is possible. Sometimes, it means processing through regrettable incidents or learning to take responsibility for the pieces of communication that you can improve. Tamara uses the Gottman Method in her work with you as well as her years of experience/knowledge in the area of mental health.

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?
