Great Couples Counselling in Squamish, BC. Therapy to heal relationships.

A compassionate and creative connection is one of the most satisfying experiences in life; especially between a couple. When a couple is in sync emotionally then they can grow together through almost any challenge, adversity or injury. James will help couples listen to each other's desires and learn new ways of connecting to restore security, intimacy and enthusiasm for one another. Appreciation for you partner can increase through couples counseling as you show your love with small acts of kindness often.

Emotionally focused therapy is based on the connections of childhood attachment theory(John Bowlby). Inconsistent care in childhood can lead to difficult patterns into adulthood and, more specifically, in intimate partner relationships. These patterns are modifiable through EFT counselling support; understanding them is key to the development of more secure and fulfilling adult relationships.

You love each other, but somehow keep having the same arguments? Maybe lyou've recently become parents, or added another little one to the mix, and somehow between the sleepless nights, endless to-do-lists, and daily grind, you stopped feeling like partners and started feeling more like roommates. You love your family, but you miss 'us.' You don't have to choose between being great parents and having a connected loving relationship. The goal isn't to get back to who you were before the baby. It's to create a new version of "us" that works for the family you've become. I help couples reconnect, find their way back to each other and create a relationship that feels exciting and intimate again

Many couples struggle with communication and "feeling heard". Over time a once happy and vibrant relationship can begin to decay through hurt feelings, anger, lack of attention, feeling valued, infidelity, the strain of children, childhood issues, and much more. We focus to heal the wounds of the past and rebuild the love and trust within the relationship. We work to equip both partners with a voice and ability to effectively listen and hear one another. We will work together to establish individual boundaries within the relationship, while creating a stronger and healthier connection. Our goal is to equip each couple with the tools they require for success, independent of counselling
