Lincoln Stoller
Counsellor/Therapist, PhD, CHt, CCPCP
I have had many relationships well beyond the traditional kinds. I have worked with groups and individuals as a physicist, management consultant, mountaineer, pilot, project manager, CEO, student, teacher, counselor, and therapist. In addition, I've put much effort into being a parent, lover, partner, and, most importantly, as a child of a somewhat dysfunctional but "intact" family. It is a misnomer to focus on "relationship and marriage" as a unique situation. All relationships hang on the same dynamics of honesty, transparency, integrity, and commitment. All of these exist on a spectrum, and they are most tested and demand the most in our most important relationships.
If you are weak in these skills in any relationships, then you are going to be weak in them in your most important relationships. In my experiences with couples and clients navigating relationships, personal integrity is always the key. It is up to you to decide where you draw the line in terms of commitment and disclosure, but do not expect great results in any relationship unless you hold yourself to the highest standards. Do not expect reciprocation even when you deserve it. In some sense, a good relationship is something you must define for yourself.
The fundamental problem in most relationships is that you accept a low standard. You may have never had a role model who lived to a high standard, and you may not know how to achieve a high standard. I can help you become a better person but beware: there are reasons behind who you are and what you've become. You'll have to address these reasons before you can move beyond them. That is why relationship work is difficult. Ultimately, the ball is in your court. Are you ready to raise the bar?

Margo Green
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (qualifying)
I have pursued further training through Gottman Level 1 and emotion focused therapy. I combine the two modalities to help identify and appreciate the unique emotions, experience and needs of each partner. We work on improving communication skills and on conflict resolution, while recognizing that conflict is a part of almost every relationship.

Roger Thiessen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, CCC, MPS, M.Div
One of life's supreme ironies is that we are social creatures, made to be in relationships - and yet relationships can be some of the most challenging aspects of life! If you're struggling in your relationship, you're not alone! I'd like to help you understand & accept yours and your partners' personality preferences, improve communication, develop conflict resolution skills, heal from wounds like infidelity, and grow in intimacy. And if you've decided to go your separate ways, I can facilitate an amicable separation.
