Relationships and marriages can be challenging and can experience a range of difficulties, from communication problems to infidelity. Marriage and relationship counseling, also known as couples therapy, is a type of psychotherapy designed to help couples improve their relationships and resolve conflicts.
In couples therapy, a licensed mental health professional works with both partners to address specific problems, improve communication, and increase understanding and empathy. The therapy can address a wide range of issues, from small conflicts to more complex relationship problems such as intimacy, trust, and power dynamics. Couples therapy can help couples develop stronger bonds and improve their overall relationship satisfaction.
If you and your partner are facing difficulties in your relationship, consider seeking the help of a licensed mental health professional to support you in resolving conflicts and improving your relationship.

Melissa Huang
Registered Psychotherapist, (Qualifying), MA
Every couple gets stuck sometimes: the same fight on repeat, distance that crept in quietly, trust that's been shaken, or simply the sense that you've become roommates instead of partners. Underneath most conflict is a longing to feel seen and safe with each other again. Drawing on Emotionally Focused Therapy, we'll create a space where both of you can slow down, understand the cycle you're caught in, and reach for each other differently. The goal isn't to decide who's right, it's to genuinely understand what each of you needs, repair what's been hurt, and rebuild connection that lasts. Together we'll work toward feeling more secure, more understood, and more equipped to face life as a team.

Compassionate Support for Couples
Relationships thrive when both partners feel truly heard, understood, and emotionally supported. As a relationship and marriage counselor, I specialize in helping couples tune into each other’s needs, navigate challenges with empathy, and build deeper, more authentic connection.
My approach blends evidence-based techniques with intuitive, heart-centered listening. Together, we create a space where each partner can safely express what’s beneath the surface—needs, fears, longings—and learn how to respond to one another with care and clarity.
Areas We Explore Together:
• Communication breakdowns and emotional misattunement
• Trust, intimacy, and the need for emotional safety
• Navigating conflict with respect and responsiveness
• Life transitions, stressors, and shifting roles
• Pre-marital preparation and conscious partnership
What to Expect
Sessions are designed to help both partners:
• Speak openly and feel genuinely heard
• Understand each other’s emotional landscape—not just words, but needs beneath them
• Learn tools for clear, compassionate communication
• Work through conflict with curiosity instead of defensiveness
• Strengthen the emotional bond and build a more resilient connection
Every relationship carries its own rhythm and story. My role is to support that journey—helping you listen more deeply, respond more intentionally, and grow together with greater awareness.

Jonathan Snowball, Anxiety and Depression Psychotherapist in Ontario
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MA, MDiv
Being part of a couple comes with its challenges. The stress of everyday life can result in conflict that seems unsolvable. Couples counselling can help partners interact better, work through problems together and move past them.
Collaboratively we will work on your therapy goals as a couple. Using emotionally focused therapy (EFT), we will look at skills and techniques of changing patterns of communication, interaction, and emotional connection.

North Star Therapy-- Cleo Haber
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
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.

Maria Yaglovski
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP), Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC)
Couples therapy is a collaborative approach and a safe space to communicate how you feel. Marriage and couples counseling tends to deal with present-day events rather than the past. It focuses on the 'now' and the challenges of married life so that you can get your relationship back on track. Couples therapy deals with the present day but also any history that causes unhealthy patterns of relating. Using the Gottman Method, I focus on communication and conflict resolution and what areas need improvement where we will then learn about creating new connections and rituals. We will also focus on building new meanings and shared value systems that will help you strengthen your relationships.

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.

Ms. Colette Conheady
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., R.P.,CCC
We live in relationship with ourselves and each other. Both are impacted by changes in our own or our partner's ,moods, behaviours, emotional states, and thought processes. In this case, individuals may seek help as a couple , individually or both. It is important to keep our expectations of change realistic. It has taken us all quite some time to become as we are. Real growth and change has to be allowed to evolve and usually takes patience and time.

Ottawa's identity as Canada's capital and a major hub for the federal public service creates a therapy landscape shaped by the particular stresses of government work — including bureaucratic frustration, political exposure, and the weight of careers lived in proximity to national policy decisions. The city's large bilingual population means both French- and English-speaking therapists are essential, with many practitioners offering services in both official languages. The Ottawa Hospital and Montfort Hospital provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private practice community serving the Glebe, Westboro, and Barrhaven areas. Ottawa's significant visible minority communities — including large Lebanese, Chinese, and Somali populations — drive growing demand for culturally affirming and multilingual therapists.
