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

Do you feel unsatisfied in your relationship or disconnected from your partner? All couples disagree or bicker from time to time, but when it turns into criticism, blaming and hostility, you may feel unhappy in your relationship. Through both joint and individual counselling sessions, we will work together to change dysfunctional patterns of behaviour and help rebuild communication, intimacy, security and trust. Common concerns addressed in couples counselling may include communication, conflict resolution, power imbalances, trust, infidelity, or separation/divorce.

In working with couples, the relationship is my client. My goal is to ensure that both partners feel heard and validated. I support the couple in creating space to have conversations that might otherwise be difficult to have. In working with me, couples will learn improved ways of communicating and being there for one another. They will also learn how to manage conflict in a way that is supportive of relationship growth. Further, the couples' strengths will be highlighted and accessed to continue to grow the relationship bond.

As human beings we are hard wired for connection, yet many of us struggle in our most meaningful relationships for many reasons including betrayal, infidelity, blended families and other conflicts. Through 30 years of work we have recognized that often couples leave their relationship at the time they have the most to learn. Our team of therapists are trained to implement a variety of skills and techniques when working with couples, such as active listening skills, Imago, Gottman’s principals, managing emotions, and positive communication skills.

Relationships can be tough to navigate. We can be disappointed that our relationship doesn’t look or feel like the fairy tale from the movies. All couples experience challenges in their relationships at one point or another. We can find ourselves feeling alone even when our partner is in close proximity to us. We often turn towards negative coping strategies such as, fault finding, numbing, isolating or seeking an exit strategy, all in an effort to manage the pain. Are you wanting to increase connection, rebuild trust, repair the emotional bond and enhance intimacy? Together, we can explore how the disconnection has arisen in your relationship and how to find your way back to eachother.

We all long for connection. Many of us feel great in the times when a relationship is new and the connection is just developing. The problems come when we have to repair distance/rifts in that connection, or when we need to sustain and deepen our connection to our partners. Maybe we never learned how. Maybe we carry scars and trauma from past relationships. Maybe we have patterns in our histories that we never really dealt with. Maybe all of the above. Our work together will take all of that into account and in a non-judgmental environment, we will hold space for you both to learn how to repair, strengthen and maintain your most important relationships.
