Every single one of my clients will agree that navigating relationships is one of the hardest areas in their lives to tackle. Social nuances and interpersonal relations are tricky, especially in the cultural mosaic we are in right now. Having someone with you to work through communication challenges and social engagements can be reassuring and help you feel safe enough to address the person you would like to connect with, be it your spouse, partner, friend, family, or co-worker.

Couples often seek therapy when relationship problems are affecting their mental and physical health. For many couples, participating in couples therapy is a brave and courageous step due to a fear that the therapist may take sides and as a result, leave one partner feeling invalidated and misunderstood. The approach that I use is the Gottman Method Couple Therapy, which involves understanding each partner's inner world, beliefs, and values. I make sure that each partner feels validated and understood in order to create a safe space to share concerns.
The Gottman Method Couple Therapy was founded by Dr's John and Julie Gottman and is an evidence based approach that helps to understand why some couples live healthy lives while others resort to divorce or separation. With over 40 years of research the Gottman Method has proven as highly effective for helping couples build better friendship, manage conflict, improve intimacy, and gain a deeper understanding of their partner's inner world.
The therapeutic process largely involves helping couples identify the strengths in their relationship and the areas that need improvement. Often couples who participate in therapy struggle to acknowledge the positive factors that already exist in the relationship. When they realize that positive aspects are already present they gain renewed hope for the future. They also feel motivated to continue engaging in the behaviours that create a healthy bond with their partner. I also offer multiple interventions on the Gottman Method that help couples improve communication skills, as effective communication is a key ingredient to understanding each other's wants, needs, and values.

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.

Counsellor/Therapist, RTC
Relationships are hard.
Our partners know how to push our buttons and us theirs. Challenges with communication are often at the root of many relationship struggles and if left unattended, can become an insidious poison within the relationship.
No matter what stage of your relationship you are in, outside support can often be the difference between things flourishing or falling apart.
