Are you feeling disconnected in your relationships and wondering how to move forward? I provide counselling to
individuals, couples and families that are seeking more positive connections in their relationships. With a Master of Social Work, training in family therapy and 30 years of experience, I understand that relationships are a central part of people’s lives.  When individuals feel stress or conflict in their relationships, it can affect their happiness and ability to function in their day to day lives.  My counselling approach is collaborative, and strength based with a focus on identifying individual/couples or families’ communication and interactional patterns, and how these can be enhanced or challenged to create a more rewarding sense of self for the individual, and balanced relationships within the couple or family.  

 
I provide strength based counselling to individuals, couples and families experiencing challenges due to anxiety, depression, transitions, trauma, self-esteem, parenting, parent-teen conflict, separation, poor communication, grief, interpersonal conflict, newly formed families and stressful situations.  It is important for you to feel connected to the important people in your life and I want to assist people in having healthy connections.
 
I offer the Prepare Program, which is a premarital assessment to help couples who are preparing for a new stage intheir relationship. The program is evidence based, and considered the best pre-marriage preparation assessment available.  It begins with an on-line assessment completed by each partner, and provides a report that provides an analysis of a couple’s strengths and growth areas, so that they can work together to establish realistic expectations, gain further insight into their relationship and develop a plan or the future in areas such as finance, communication, conflict resolution and family.  In addition, I offer the Enrich Program, which is an assessment for couples who are already married and want to get an easy and effective way to get a sense of the dynamics in their relationship to better understand each other and focus on growth in their
marriage.

 
I provide a therapeutic environment that is supportive, compassionate and judgement free. I also provide free 15-minute telephone consultations if you are thinking counselling may be right for you or your family. Please send me an email at Clarityregina@gmail.com or leave a message on my confidential voice mail and we will arrange a time.
