Great Couples Counselling in Binbrook, ON. Therapy to heal relationships.

I have been a couple therapist for over 10 years and have enjoyed every minute of it! I have found great success using Gottman and Solution-Focused Strategies. Couples seemed to appreciate these approaches, as they seem practical and easy to comprehend. As well, the Gottman resources and its foundation sound research have seemed to empower clients to take charge of their situations with confidence.

Couples Counselling Most relationships will become strained at some point and will begin producing maladaptive patterns. Relationship problems are rooted in our distorted egos, insecure attachment, emotional immaturity etc., which create to the many issues that develop for couples - infidelity, financial stress, poor communication, ill health, sexual divergence, household responsibility conflicts, addictions, etc., .... or just simply growing apart. Relationships can often be restored if help is sought soon enough. A counsellor can help reorient perceptions and emotions (how we look at a situation and how we feel about it) and assist the couple in adopting conscious structural changes.

In a warm and empathetic environment I assist couples in building trust, improving communication and working through conflict. My work involves helping change problematic thinking and communication, guiding through pain and forgiveness and helping you build the skills you need to improve your relationship both now and in the future.

When communication breaks down in relationships it can often lead to a disconnection from our partners which can seem irreparable. This can lead to a lack of intimacy, resentment, or mistrust towards each other. When a couple agrees to reach out for help, it shows a commitment to each other and an openness to change. When doing couples work it is a priority for me that each partner’s concerns and feelings are heard and addressed. This involves ensuring equal time for each person to talk about their concerns and needs as well as their goals for our work together. I have experience in working with heterosexual as well as same sex couples. Book a free consultation today.

As a Relational Psychotherapist, my focus is on how we come to have certain patterns of thoughts, feelings and actions and how these patterns impact us in relationships. As a couples therapist, I help couples come to understand these patterns in themselves and each other and I provide strategies for better communication based on this understanding.

You've lost that loving feeling. There's a sense of emotional disconnection, an inability to talk things through without an argument, and a palpable distance between you. Everyone says relationships take work, but no one ever tells you exactly what that work is! With Relational Life Therapy, you can learn precisely what to do. Relational Life Therapy (RLT) is a method of couples therapy that helps couples discover exactly what they are doing "wrong" and teaches them what to do instead. It is intentional, honest, effective and leads to stronger connections, deeper understandings and lasting change. We can get to the heart of the matter quickly. Reach out to learn more.

Couple work is about supporting both partners as they work to support the relationship between them. The relationship is what you create, from the foundation up. It requires a plan, developed with strength and wisdom; built with equanimity and sacrifice; maintained with compassion and kindness. The rewards are endless. It requires each partner to put the other first, and when you do that, you both win.

When relationships work, they can be one of the most amazing aspects of our lives. But, when relationships turn sour, they can bring about some of the deepest pain that we can experience. These feelings are amplified when things like betrayal, neglect, abuse, lies, and infidelity are involved. At Whiteboard we work with couples of all types to help them better understand themselves, their partners, and the unique dynamic which exists between them.
