Family Systems theory is primarily focused on three areas. These are individuals, couples, and families (including children). Couples therapy focuses exclusively on the couple's dyad. This connection is affected by many factors: Past childhood experiences of family life, current parenting and grandparenting, blended families after a divorce, intimacy, sexuality, employment stress, financial obligations, and supporting your parents even when you are an adult. This list, though not exhaustive, points to the complexity of couplehood. My training is an evidence-based model utilizing tested interventions to support couples through times of transition or recognition. Book a free consultation

A committed relationship has its ups and downs. People change and life challenges can cause stress. I help couples explore their individual needs and what they want in a relationship. Sometimes a quiet hour to reconnect with your partner is all it takes to rekindle the love that brought you together. By exploring how a couple manages communication,conflict and division of tasks can also eliminate stress that interferes with intimacy. However, I also offer a safe place to process the end of relationships.

Over the course of your relationship, you are going to face its ups and downs. Learning how to meet all that life may throw at you, together as a couple and grow stronger in each experience are just some of the many benefits of couples counselling I provide. I help you develop the tools you need for when your relationship goes through a tough time. You'll learn how trust and open to your partner and feel safe, how to respond to your partner's needs during the good and the bad times, keep moving forward and blooming as the time goes by.

Relationships can bring joy and connection, but they also face challenges like miscommunication, unmet needs, or trust issues. Over time, stress and unresolved conflicts can create distance. Couples therapy provides a space to reconnect, improve communication, and address recurring patterns. Together, we’ll explore each partner’s perspective, build empathy, and develop tools for resolving conflicts constructively. Therapy isn’t about assigning blame but fostering a deeper understanding of each other. Whether you’re rebuilding after a breach of trust or simply seeking to strengthen your bond, couples therapy can help you grow together and create a healthier, more fulfilling relationship.

If you are coming to couples therapy, you and your partner have developed unhealthy patterns of relating. I will help you overcome your toxic communication patterns. If there has been an affair, I will help you recognize and acknowledge the deep emotional trauma it has caused. I will help you move from self-focus to partner-focus, and finally I will help move you from blame to understanding and empathy.

In my work with couples, I encourage each individual to understand their role in conflict so that they can take ownership and make new decisions that prioritize the relationship. Through these conversations, each person can begin to develop compassion for their partner, so new ways of being can help the relationship grow while strengthening the connection.

My approach to couples counseling focuses on helping men struggling in relationships gain deeper self-awareness, emotional insight, and healthier communication skills. While couples therapy typically involves both partners, individual therapy can be a powerful way for men to explore their own relational patterns, attachment styles, and emotional responses that may be affecting their relationships. Using a psychodynamic approach, we work to uncover unconscious beliefs and past experiences that shape how you connect with your partner. By understanding these deeper influences, you can improve communication, navigate conflict more effectively, and foster greater emotional intimacy. Strengthening

Friend, lover, husband, wife, partner, intimate co-creator / intimate enemy: the options of what way couple therapy can help are many. I have over 40 years experience with couples of every variety (straight, lesbian, gay, swingers and so on) and have always found the balance both within each person as well as between the partners as key. Couples - even when in Big Time Conflict - can learn what other choices they have: as individuals and as a working team. The balancing of power between self and one’s partner is the key learning that is often needed. Inevitably both people have areas of esteem - but also areas of vulnerability. It takes risking, but change and healing are possible.

I believe that a healthy couple's relationship is one of the most challenging types of relationships to develop and sustain. This is because a couple’s relationship requires that the couple juggle and balance well at least three types of relationship with each other. When all 3 types of relationships are functioning well between a couple, each individual will feel loved, valued, and respected; and the couple will be able to resolve conflict well and set and achieve common goals collaboratively. Through counseling, I can help you improve how you relate to each other as friends, partners and lovers. Instead of being and operating as individuals, you can be and operate as a true couple.

I LOVE working with couples. I believe relationships require empathy, openness and effort. I embrace diversity of all kinds and encourage you to seek help as soon as the pattern between you is stuck. Even one visit to a therapist's office can help you see that change is possible and achievable with even a small amount of effort.

Taking time with your loved one can be a beautiful and fulfilling experience. However, it can feel challenging when you and your partner are stuck in previous patterns of behaviour, communication, and interaction. As a couple therapist, I will support you in better understanding yourself, your loved one, and your relationship to navigate challenges (e.g., communication, attachment, trust, etc.). I seek to enable you and your partner to work as a team in navigating whatever struggles come your way and developing your own unique toolkit. Speak with me today for a free consultation to begin your journey.

Couple counseling in both hetero and homo sexual realtionships has the same starting point of communication, trust, and respect. As a professional using Interpersonal Communication techniques I would help the couple come to understand not only each other as a couple but also themselves as an individual in the couple's relationship. By role modeling an unbias position I will help lend a new perspective to the couple's relationship issues that may not have been seen through the day-to-day routine of their busy lives.

Over the years, I’ve been fortunate to witness profound transformations, such as couples moving from disconnection and resentment to deep emotional intimacy and renewed trust   Couples counselling helps you explore and understand the challenges you're facing together. Common topics include: Communication, intimacy, trust, finances, extended family, parenting styles (if children are involved), and problem-solving. Our session time offers a safe space to work through the conflict and build a stronger connection.
