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

All relationships go through ups and downs but seeing a trained and experienced therapist can make a big difference in how situations get resolved.

Unfortunately, life doesn't come with a rule book on how to "do relationships" in a healthy way.

From there, I offer tools and strategies to help couples create a relationship that's healthy and fulfilling for both partners.

A loving relationship can be a source of profound connecting and security, and as with many aspects of life worth pursuing, it requires nurturing.

Family Systems theory is primarily focused on three areas. These are individuals, couples, and families (including children). Couples therapy focuses exclusively on the couple's dyad. This connection is affected by many factors: Past childhood experiences of family life, current parenting and grandparenting, blended families after a divorce, intimacy, sexuality, employment stress, financial obligations, and supporting your parents even when you are an adult. This list, though not exhaustive, points to the complexity of couplehood.
