Relationship’s dynamics can be challenging to navigate even during the best of times, and couple therapy can help partners find new ways to relate, connect, and communicate with each other. Asking for what you want and need in a relationship can be scary, so therapy should be a safe space where you and your partner feel comfortable exploring your needs and expectations together. I work collaboratively with clients to identify and explore patterns of interaction that they want to strengthen or change in their relationships, as well as holding space for vulnerability and connection. Book a free consultation to learn more about my approach and explore if we are a good fit.

I prioritize creating a neutral, encouraging, and comfortable environment during our sessions to work collaboratively to restore your connection with your partner. Couples therapy offers a safe, supportive setting that promotes open, honest communication. Improving communication abilities enables you to explore hidden concerns and previous emotional traumas that might be present. By engaging in this process, you will gain a more profound comprehension of your partner, discover ways to assist you in the face of life's difficulties, and form an authentic, all-encompassing, and significant connection while cultivating the abilities and resources to handle tension within the relationship.

They say home is where the heart is, and in your relationship, it's no different. I specialize in couple therapy, where I honor both perspectives and needs within your partnership. Together, we pave a path to reconnection through mutual understanding and a common purpose, putting the heart back in your relationship. Reach out for a free consultation, and let's work towards rekindling the spark and strengthening your bond.

Relationships can be both motivating life enhancing and challenging or difficult. I can work with you to recognize unhealthy patterns and to replace them with healthy patterns. Also, we can work together to understand what might be getting in the way positive growth in you relationships. We can work toward finding changes you can make that will allow you to get greater satisfaction out of your relationships.

Counseling helps you address your habitual pattern of mutual hurt in your relationship. Listening is key. Responsive listening, especially reflection of feelings, is the most helpful. Try to hear about his or her history, hurts, scars. You might well think and act differently in similar circumstances, but can you listen to what makes him tick? “Getting it” completely is impossible. Trying counts for a lot. Counselling helps you both to tune in to each other.

Relationships undergo hardships, traumas, and "bumps" that often leave one or the other partner feeling misunderstood, unloved, or taken for granted. Sometimes, all it takes is help from a professional to mediate, communicate and intervene in ways that might be missing and help you work towards getting back to the place where you once began, in love and connected.

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?

Couples Counselling Most relationships will become strained at some point and will begin producing maladaptive patterns. Relationship problems are rooted in our distorted egos, insecure attachment, emotional immaturity etc., which create to the many issues that develop for couples - infidelity, financial stress, poor communication, ill health, sexual divergence, household responsibility conflicts, addictions, etc., .... or just simply growing apart. Relationships can often be restored if help is sought soon enough. A counsellor can help reorient perceptions and emotions (how we look at a situation and how we feel about it) and assist the couple in adopting conscious structural changes.

Couples can often become fixated on repairing their partners’ behavior and waiting for the other to change before feeling content in the relationship. However, in my work with couples, I have found it fruitful to explore how each person in the relationship is contributing to a dynamic that they would like to change. I also believe that therapy should be a space where each person can express their views and feel validated and accepted by their partner(s). Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to ensure we are a good fit.

The primary focus of couple therapy is the quality of interactions between the couple. Where resentment, frustration, and hurt have been an impediment to communication, counselling provides an opportunity for each person to have their concerns openly addressed and understood. I will help you understand your differences, resolve underlying contentious issues and provide you with opportunities to learn effective communication techniques so that you can enjoy positive meaningful interactions. As a seasoned relationship therapist, my ultimate goal is to enable a couple to experience a deeper level of connection, harmony and intimacy in their relationship.
