Do you or your partner suffer from social anxiety and it's affecting your relationship?

If one or both of you feels anxious socially, your relationship may be suffering too. Contact me for ways in which you can move past social anxiety to a fuller, intimate, richer, relaxed more authentic relationship.

If you are reading this page you are provably feeling that things are not going in the direction you want with your partner and you are starting to feel that your love for each other is not enough to make it work as you expected. Relationships are very complex and there are many conscious and unconscious dynamics we bring to our relationships which are very hard to objectively identify on ourselves even if you are a professional in this field. If you resonate with the situation I am describing I encourage you to contact me. I can support you on discovering how you two could be contributing to it and to gain the awareness and tools to make it better for the present situation and the future.

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.

Communication skills are particularly useful for couples but often need to be learned and practiced. Past hurts need to be mended and cuts need to heal before trust and commitment can build a new foundation on which to move forward. Sometimes the early months of a relationship spark excitement and feelings of euphoria; however, these euphoric feelings give way to familiarity, and we start taking each other for granted. Relationship counseling promotes individual growth and awareness and works towards improved intimacy and deeper connection. Using the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) can help partners bring back the spark and give you new reasons to celebrate.

The relationship you have with your significant other can bring you love, joy, and a sense of fulfillment. But when things aren't going well, your relationship can often be exhausting and painful. Couples therapy provides a safe and fair space for both of you to be heard, and can help you discover and process the root of the issue. Couples therapy is hard work, but when both partners are willing to fight for the relationship, great things can happen.

With a wide range of pressures on couples' relationships, limited training and educational support about romance and the challenge to bring together our lives, couples counselling helps you identify: * ways to enhance communication, conflict resolution and negotiation skills, * steps to build unity while valuing each other's uniqueness, * research-based methods to heal and recover from infidelity, adultery and emotional affairs, * strategies to attain emotional stability, and * *healthier ways to express the love you have!

A healthy couple's relationship is often constructed by two self-reliant individuals who choose to build a shared space between them, increasingly filled with tender emotions, hopes and goals, and a dedication to the other person's growth. Central to this construct is the ability to listen. Relationships often arrive in therapy troubled by the ability to communicate and the absence of a mutual understanding of where they're going. Individuals don't mature at the same pace, just like their ability to identify and share feelings develops differently. The comfort of being listened to and understood by your therapist often helps to begin the work of reconstructing your relationship.

If your relationship is struggling, I can help you both to view it in a different way, and to learn new skills to re-connect and recover the intimacy that can sometimes go missing. Most people will experience emotional problems at some point in their life, and all relationships can have conflict creep in and cause disconnection and distance. Despite theses difficulties, I can help you bring vitality back into your life, and build a deeper connection between you and your partner.

In my couples counseling sessions, I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help partners deepen their emotional connection and break through communication barriers. By identifying and transforming negative patterns, I guide couples to a place of understanding, compassion, and trust. My approach creates a safe space for partners to openly express their needs and build a stronger, more resilient relationship. Working with me, you’ll benefit from compassionate support and proven techniques that foster lasting, meaningful change in your partnership.

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.

Relationship counselling will aim to build effective communication between you and your partner(s). Accomplishing this will begin by disclosing the issues within a safe and accepting environment. Subsequent discussions may include dissolving the relationship in a healthy way, or discovering the values, needs, and boundaries essential for you and your relationship to flourish.

Relationships can be so wonderful and so very hard sometimes. It is not so much if we fight but how we fight. It's how we work through the problems that can make a difference. There is infidelity, anger, mistrust, deep hurt, and challenging moments in a couple's lives that can bring us together or pull us further apart. Therapy helps you move through these pain points with love, understanding, and kindness and process the built-up anger and hurt. It is never too late to rekindle the love that brought you together in the first place.

At New Roots Therapy, our therapists are relationship specialists. When working with couples, we strive to balance compassion with accountability, and we work with you to develop new perspectives and understandings of yourself and your partner. By exploring what is most important to you as an individual person and as an intimate partner, we hope to help couples reconnect with their values and ultimately find greater fulfillment in their relationship. Sometimes couples come to counselling unsure of whether or not they wish to remain together. Our therapists are open to helping couples move through this decision making process, and working with you to find the best resolution possible.

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.

It's common for couples to seek additional support. Couples might initiate therapy when they are in crisis mode or as a preventive means to maintain a healthy relationship. Common issues couples face include infidelity, betrayal, lack of emotional or physical connection, conflict resolution, communication issues, etc. I work with couples to rebuild/enhance intimate connections and heal past hurts.
