Great Couples Counselling in Lacombe, AB. Therapy to heal relationships.

We all desire to be in a loving relationship and when there is a problem in our significant relationship we become distressed. We are designed as people to be attached to others, in a close loving relationship. For many years I trained in many different couples’ therapies which helped me understand what was going wrong in relationships. However, the past year I have obtained extensive training in Emotion Focused Therapy which is researched based and has a 75% effectiveness rate to help couples repair their relationship and understand how they used to get caught in negative patterns. The results are transformative as couples are able to regain trust and a secure connection with the person they love.

We utilize the Gottman Method of Couples Therapy, taking a “research-based approach to creating stronger relationships” in both couples therapy and marriage counselling. We develop concrete strategies to help couples effectively work through their relationship issues. To assist, in our first session we complete a thorough assessment to pinpoint exactly what issues the couple needs to work on, and together come up with goals and an action plan.

Are you and your partner stuck in unsolvable arguments? Does one of you tend to ‘demand’ more while the other shuts down and withdraws? Are you feeling less connected and actually adding stress to each other’s lives instead of reducing it? While frustrating, these are perfectly normal patterns of partnership and there is hope. I would be glad to help you untangle the knots, learning to team up together instead of entering battles over who is right. In doing so, we will unpack past traumas and patterns of behaviour, learning to better communicate and to be safely vulnerable in a way that stands your relationship on solid ground.
