Great Couples Counselling in Grand Valley, ON. Therapy to heal relationships.

Ray has completed her level 2 training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy and uses Gottman Method Couples Therapy along with Emotion Focused Therapy in her therapy work. The Gottman method uses 9 principles that include trust and commitment. EFT is a specific technique that explores the feeling underneath the conflicts that appear at the surface. Ray finds that couples who come for counselling are invested in saving their relationships and are invested in the therapeutic work that we do together. Ray also is a Certified Educator of Dr. John Gottman's 7 Principles that Make Marriage (and any partner relationship) Work. There are workshops currently being planned in the Orangeville area.

I specialize in working with couples in crisis because of a betrayal, trauma, PTSD, addictions, and ADHD. I am a registered gestalt therapist with somatic experiencing training out of California. If you or your partner's trauma is impacting your relationship I am here to support you both. Healing can happen. If you are unable to leave your home because of the lack of childcare available we can arrange sessions for you and your partner once the kids are all tucked in or during the weekends! Couples therapy can be done very effectively via tele-therapy. Give me a chance to help you rescue your shitty relationship! -The tile of my soon to be published book- The Shitty Relationship

Asking for help can be the hardest step. You may be here because there’s been a lot of conflict recently, maybe you’re noticing that you and your partner aren’t as connected as you once were, or maybe you’re looking to build a resilient foundation for your relationship. I'm here to help couples build stronger bonds, navigate change, and grow together. I have additional training in helping couples navigate the intricacies of ADHD. Using evidence-based strategies, we can address communication patterns, manage conflicts, and deepen understanding. I offer free consultations to help you decide if I’m a good fit.

Over the years I have worked with many configurations of couples; same sex, open, non-binary. I tend to draw from an emotionally-focussed approach and find moments of tender vulnerability to be so profoundly healing. I also really enjoy creative "out of the box" outdoor experiential activities that I orchestrate based on the particular couple and their concerns. I find these activities can become playful and bonding for couples.

Couples counseling at Pro Q Therapy helps partners move beyond conflict and disconnection to rediscover trust, understanding, and emotional safety. Whether you’re struggling with communication, resentment, or distance, therapy provides a structured space to rebuild your bond with respect and compassion. Our therapists use evidence-based approaches such as CBT, DBT, and attachment-focused methods to help each partner feel heard, reduce defensiveness, and learn healthier ways to connect. Together, you’ll gain insight into each other’s needs, repair emotional wounds, and create a relationship that feels more supportive, balanced, and secure.

A loving relationship can be a source of profound connecting and security, and as with many aspects of life worth pursuing, it requires nurturing. While I do not offer couple therapy sessions, we have many couple and family therapists at Psychotherapy Collective, my online clinic who are availability to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to ensure they are the proper fit for your journey.

Healthy relationships and emotional connection are typically fostered by effective communication and boundaries. Therapy can help you and your partner understand the patterns you are currently feeling stuck in and learn how to communicate each of your needs and perspectives from a place of vulnerability, compassion, and care. I work with individuals, couples and families. Book a free consultation to explore if we are a good fit for therapy.

We just need to learn how to be better friends again. We wanna help!

Through the highly successful process of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for Couples developed by Sue Johnson, with whom I have trained, I enjoy working with couples who are striving to create and maintain a safe loving and dynamic relationship by deepening their experiences of love and trust. There are many factors that can get us off track from having the relationship we desire and deserve. Learning simple ways of communicating, sharing experience and engaging our compassion can enhance our abilities for loving intimacy. The EFT process is very accessible with a high success rate. For more information see www.iceeft.com &/or email me for an initial interview.

When it comes to couples, the total is greater than the sum of its parts. Therefore, in couple therapy, the focus is not on the two sides of the equation. Rather, the object of inquiry and therapy is the relationship between those two sides. The therapy examines the interpersonal relationship and treats it as a third space. Therefore, the goal is not to change the individuals but to change the way they communicate, understand, and accept each other. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.

We all long for connection. Many of us feel great in the times when a relationship is new and the connection is just developing. The problems come when we have to repair distance/rifts in that connection, or when we need to sustain and deepen our connection to our partners. Maybe we never learned how. Maybe we carry scars and trauma from past relationships. Maybe we have patterns in our histories that we never really dealt with. Maybe all of the above. Our work together will take all of that into account and in a non-judgmental environment, we will hold space for you both to learn how to repair, strengthen and maintain your most important relationships.
