What are the most common couples' issues? If you are thinking "communication, conflict, sex, money, child rearing" you are correct. However, most therapists will go after the symptom on each side of the couple fence thinking that the way to effective change is by getting each party to "work" on their respective "issue". Many times the parties don’t agree but comply. Imagine if you could align the unconscious brains of a couple and stop the "working on your issues" part that has become so popular in therapy settings?

Couples counselling is for anyone who is a committed relationship, you do not need to be married. I am a Certified Gottman Therapist - a scientific and researched approach to helping couples improve their relationship developed by Dr. John and Julie Gottman. Based on the framework of a Sound Relationship House, specific interventions are used to increase respect, fondness, connection and create a better understanding.

After each completes a pre-counseling questionnaire, a conversation takes place where both can express what they would like to get out of counseling and how each takes responsibility for problems in the relationship. After the 1st session, it is important to meet each person individually to understand their perspective and assess what role family of origin and prior relationships may play in their current relationship. Work would happen on areas like communication, managing conflict, and dealing with unresolved issues, unmet needs, and relationship dynamics that have caused problems. Learning new skills and perspectives gives hope to rebuilding the relationship into something both desire.

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.
