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

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.

I offer couples therapy using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), a highly effective approach designed to help partners strengthen their emotional bond and improve communication. By focusing on the emotional patterns and attachment needs within the relationship, I guide couples through identifying and addressing underlying issues, fostering a deeper understanding and connection. My goal is to help couples rebuild trust, enhance intimacy, and create a more secure and fulfilling partnership.

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.

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

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.
