Somatic Healing Arts, Psychotherapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MA-ExAT
Romantic relationship challenges affect both the mind and body, often showing up as tension, anxiety, frustration, or disconnection. Approaches like art therapy and sensorimotor therapy engage both body and mind, helping individuals explore emotions, communicate more effectively, release stored stress, and build greater understanding, connection, and emotional balance within their relationships. My approach is from an attachment and trauma focused lens, leading to the relationship partners to understand themselves better leading to calmer relationships.

Abby Rizzolo
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC
You might be ready to change unwanted relationship patterns but aren't sure how, wanting to learn new ways of communicating, or are hoping to build more fulfilling, connected relationships. Choosing to embark in relationship counselling isn't a failure, but a vote of hope for you and your relationship. Seeking support is much easier than doing it alone. I offer relationship counselling for a wide variety of partnership dynamics - married, dating, monogamous, polyamorous, ENM, triads, families, and more. I sometimes draw on my trainings in Emotionally-Focused Couples Therapy and the Gottman Method of couples therapy to support you.

Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Relationships can be one of the most meaningful and also most challenging parts of life. You might find yourself repeating familiar patterns, struggling with boundaries, feeling anxious or withdrawn in connection with others, or having difficulty expressing your needs. Even when relationships are important to you, they can bring up fears of rejection, abandonment, conflict, or not being understood.
In our work together in individual therapy, we’ll explore your relational patterns with curiosity, looking at how past experiences may be shaping the way you connect in the present. Using a trauma-informed and attachment-focused approach, we’ll also pay attention to how these patterns show up in your nervous system, emotions, and sense of self within relationships. The goal is to help you feel more grounded, secure, and confident in how you relate to others while also staying connected to yourself.
I draw from approaches such as IFS, ACT, EMDR, Mindfulness-Based CBT, and somatic-based practices, tailoring our work to your unique needs. Together, we’ll work on building awareness, boundaries, and communication skills while also supporting deeper healing of relational wounds and attachment patterns.
I offer both in-person and virtual counselling sessions. You’re welcome to reach out or visit my website to book a free 20-minute phone consultation to see if we’re a good fit.

Adam Manz
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), MCP
Even strong relationships can reach points of tension or distance—where communication breaks down, needs go unmet, or old patterns keep repeating. In couples therapy, I help partners slow down reactive cycles, understand the emotions beneath conflict, and rebuild connection through empathy and honesty. Whether you’re repairing trust, navigating major life changes, or simply wanting to strengthen your bond, our work can help you feel more understood and supported in your relationship.

Birgit Schreiber Dr
Psychologist, PhD and MA in Psychology
Couple and marriage counselling is a very useful way to resolve challenges in relationships that seem to be recurring, and keep us stuck at a level we actually would like to move beyond. Often, our current relationships are very much shaped by past (parental and family) experiences. Couple work is very rewarding and I feel very optimistic that often times challenges can be disentangled and couples can move on to a more trusting and closer stage.

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
The person you loved has become a stranger—or worse, a source of pain. Where there was warmth, now there's judgment. Where there were conversations, now there's silence or fighting. Whether you're facing infidelity, jealousy, financial stress, emotional distance, or the slow erosion of connection, the grief is real and isolating. I listen without taking sides, understanding that relationship pain carries deep trauma for everyone involved. Together, we'll explore what's broken, what's worth repairing, and what might need to end. You'll process the hurt you're carrying, learn healthier communication patterns, and gain clarity about whether this relationship can heal—or whether leaving is the healthier choice.

Yanna Martinek
Counsellor/Therapist, R.C.C.
I offer couples counselling grounded in Bader-Pearson’s Developmental Model, which looks at how intimacy and individuality coexist in a relationship. We pay attention to the patterns you find yourselves in—especially during conflict—and work toward staying connected while also being honest about your own needs. This often means slowing things down, understanding what’s happening underneath reactions, and building the capacity to show up differently with each other. The focus isn’t just on resolving issues, but on creating a relationship that feels both connected and sustainable.

It is important to maintain positive attachments and validation of differences & diversity between partners, as well as, the time for forgiveness and letting go of negativity and hurt feelings. The initial love attraction can become stronger in time, as one's love comes with acceptance of one another.
