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

Whether you are dating, engaged, living together or married or a combinatiion thereof; straight or gay, makes no difference. In a 'partnership' each partner brings with them into the relationship hopes and expectations. They also bring memories that are sitting just below the surface. When something happens that feels bad these memories will be triggered so not only will they react to the situation in the present but also to the past. This applies to both good and bad memories, but it is not the good things that give us trouble! Our work together is to make sure each partner is understood, clearly and to discover how each can have their needs met.

Couple therapy is a broad term for those who wish to address relationship concerns or would like assistance in navigating their relationship. Presenting topics may include breaches of trust, infidelity, (co)parenting, sex and intimacy, separation, exploration of relationship structure or general conflict and arguments. Often times, at nobody’s fault, couples may get caught in patterns of interaction that bring a lot of pain to the relationship. I will assist you in identifying these harmful interactions and work towards breaking that cycle with new ways of relating to each other.
