Great Couples Counselling in Gravenhurst, ON. Therapy to heal relationships.

Effective couples counselling should always centre on the emotional bond and hidden, problematic communication between two people. By establishing the relationship as my client and using structured Emotionally Focussed Therapy techniques I am able to provide a non-blaming, safe space in which couples can learn to become emotionally available to one another and develop deeper, healthier and more secure attachments bringing about positive, lasting intimacy.

Intimate relationships are like a dance – they can be quite joyful and energizing but when facing obstacles, partners need to find the steps and rhythm to move more freely. Couple therapy can provide a safe space in which you and your partner can gain a deeper understanding of one another and what contributes to difficulties within the dance of your relationship. Should you decide to attend sessions, I will work with you to facilitate honest conversations, help you to better understand what you may need from one another, and support you in finding a way to step toward more acceptance, intimacy, and connection. Contact me or book a free consultation if you wish to learn more.

Conflict and loneliness can be most painful when they arise in our most cherished relationship. Therapy can provide a supportive space to explore your concerns in an open and honest way with your partner. My approach to couples therapy acknowledges the importance of relationships in our lives and focuses on strengthening these relationships by fostering safe, honest and open communication.

Couple therapy is a broad term for those who wish to address relationship concerns or would like assistance in navigating their relationship. Presenting topics may include breaches of trust, infidelity, (co)parenting, sex and intimacy, separation, exploration of relationship structure or general conflict and arguments. Often times, at nobody’s fault, couples may get caught in patterns of interaction that bring a lot of pain to the relationship. I will assist you in identifying these harmful interactions and work towards breaking that cycle with new ways of relating to each other. I am affirming of polyamorous and ethical non-monogamous relationships. Contact me to book a free consultation.

Whether you are dating, engaged, living together or married or a combinatiion thereof; straight or gay, makes no difference. In a 'partnership' each partner brings with them into the relationship hopes and expectations. They also bring memories that are sitting just below the surface. When something happens that feels bad these memories will be triggered so not only will they react to the situation in the present but also to the past. This applies to both good and bad memories, but it is not the good things that give us trouble! Our work together is to make sure each partner is understood, clearly and to discover how each can have their needs met.

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.
