Whitney Reinhart
Registered Psychotherapist, MA., RP.
Relationships have the opportunity to make us feel supported and nurtured, but they often can leave us feeling overwhelmed, insecure, and disconnected at times. I work from a emotionally focused, attachment-based, and psychodynamic framework in order to help couples better understand their emotional and attachment worlds and build intimacy and security within their relationships. Together we will uncover core emotional wounds and learn ways of communicating your inner experiences, emotions, and needs to each other in ways they can truly understand and respond.

Monika Georgieva
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
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.

Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
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.

When I work with couples who are seeking support with their relationship--whether to address challenges around communication, connection, intimacy, infidelity--I seek to collaborate with both individuals in a way that centers the relationship itself as the client.

Do you feel a lack of connection to your partner? Is this bringing up feelings of guilt, anger or loneliness? Perhaps your partner isn’t ready or willing to engage in couples therapy; Relationship counselling is a good place to start. It helps you understand your ‘dance’ with your partner and track how reactive behaviour can impact the dynamic. We can help you get to know your underlying vulnerabilities and needs, so you can communicate and become more responsive and engaged with your partner.

Our Approaches
• Our Couples Programs are based in Emotion focused therapy and the
Gottman Method (GM).
• EFT is a leading-edge couples therapy designed to help partners accept, express, regulate, and managing emotion.
• The Gottman Method is backed by rigorous research that focuses on 3 specific areas: friendship, conflict management, and creating a life of shared meaning. Partners identify and recognize the Four Horsemen – negative communication styles- (criticism, contempt, defensiveness, and stonewalling) that can predict the failure of a relationship (with over 95% accuracy) in order to replace these with healthier communication patterns. Couples also learn to identify “bids for communication” from their partner and how to respond to these in ways that strengthen secure bonds. The overarching goal is to help a couple accept their differences, communicates more effectively, and increase intimacy, respect and affection.
