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.

Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, CCC
Finding a true soul-mate in life to share joys and sorrows with is a goal for most of us. However, misunderstanding and miscommunication can create negative barriers around couples resulting in unnecessary arguments or hurtful actions. With the help of couple counselling, couples are encouraged to express and address their problems and concerns openly and respectfully with each other. Improving their style of communications and creating a stronger bond between couples can result in longer lasting relationships and happiness.

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.
