Great Couples Counselling in Otterburne, MB. Therapy to heal relationships.

It's normal for couples to face conflict in their relationship. In fact, the Gottman's (experts in the field of couple's relationships) assert conflict offers the opportunity for greater closeness in relationship! However, when we don't have the communication and conflict resolution strategies needed for successful repair and resolution, conflict tends to be experienced as quite disconnecting. I can help you grow these skills, as well as work through past issues that might be bogging you down. It is never too early to reach out for support through couple's therapy, and as long as there is openness to try, neither is it too late to gain help.

Happily married but want a deeper connection? Or, tired of arguing and not being understood? There are many underlying issues that affect a relationship. Childhood experiences often impact how each partner communicates or copes with conflict, stress, emotions, etc. Life events and transitions can also stir up overwhelming emotions and tax resources affecting the quality of a relationship. Through therapy, you will discover how past and present life experiences are affecting you, your partner, and your relationship and identify harmful patterns that are hindering the intimacy you long for. Through effective communication techniques you will gain the tools to understand one another better.

Within a couple, there are three developmental processes occurring at any given time-that of each partner and that of the couple itself. A couple matures well when partners each feel able to define their thoughts, feelings, wants and desires, and can voice this in the spirit of knowing one another more deeply. I work with couples to uncover what patterns keep them from effectively self defining and maintaining a positive attachment with each other. To this end, I ask partners to decide their own autonomous goals, and then support them in this to develop their capacity to expand themselves while also growing as a couple.

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?

Healing and growing in our sexuality & eroticism can help us understand ourselves and our partners in ways we may have never been privileged to before. It opens us to the appreciation of the full depth and breadth of human erotic expression. I work with individuals and couples. My approach is informed by training as an Erotic Blueprint Coach, somatic attachment and conscious kink. All forms of love, relationship structures, and sexual expression welcome.

All of us were created for relationship. Marriage is the most intimate form of all relationships. It, therefore, can also be the source of our most agonizing pain. It takes maturity, dedication and insight to make such a relationship successful. Every relationship is imperfect and can benefit from deeper work. Sometines, we get very much off track. I can help by looking at communication, conflict, misunderstandings, betrayal, intimacy, wounding and abuse. I can help couples identify their individual personalities and love languages. I can help couples come to a place where each of their needs are being met. I also love to do premarital counselling where much prevention can occur.
