Healthy Relationships, Healthy Life. I lwork with all kinds of couples and situations! Some clients want support to maintain or enhance their current healthy relationship, others are couples preparing for marriage/commitment, co-parenting couples and marital couples who have hit a rough/rocky patch along their path together and want to navigate their next steps.

When couples feel as though they are no longer able to communicate effectively, have lost patience with each other, have developed a lack of trust, empathy and feelings of desire, this can cause thoughts of helplessness and uncertainty about the future of their relationship. When couples are committed to working together to develop the trust, communication and time together that they once had, they can feel as though they are a partnership once again.

My background in relational therapy allows me to understand individuals through the relationships they cohabit. Couple therapy may be a vehicle for growth to occur both relationally and individually. This in turn may assist in bringing you closer to your desired goals through understanding and breaking down language used in romantic relationships. Throughout couple sessions, I lean towards emotionally focused therapy, as I have witnessed its transformative effects particularly in romantic relationships.

Too many people start at the end with couple work. My approach takes a good solid look at the history created to get you there. Then we search for the skills to ensure that you are able to complete the change your seeking- often people require active listening and talking skills as a beginning point. Too often people come to me presenting an issue and focusing on confrontation and conflict resolution before they can even comprehend the issues of one another....tells me how many people actually learn to run before they walk? Couple work isn't about who is "right" but rather where are we going and how do we get there (and a little of how did we get so lost?).

I’ve been helping people lead more intentional lives for over 20 years. Couples therapy supports you in reaching a fresh connection with your partner. You have the ability to have a meaningful relationship. I can help you learn the skills to communicate in a way that will get your needs met.

Most importantly, you're a distinctive couple, with distinctive needs. My goal is to work with you as a unique couple, and focus on YOUR goals.

Seeking change but unsure of the path forward, you find yourself contemplating the path that led you here. The exhaustion from perpetual discord, the careful navigation of conversations to sidestep arguments – it's an energy-draining cycle. Even if the clashes have diminished, a feeling of being overlooked persists. Recognizing that things haven't always been this way, you understand that seeking assistance is essential for any substantive shift. Navigating relationships is intricate, and we've guided numerous couples through seemingly chaotic situations. At Atlas Therapy we help each partner feel seen, heard and appreciated again.

I often see couples when one side is experiencing an addiction. This can cause relatively predictable effects in the other half of the partnership. The person addicted needs their own recovery and the partner needs their own healing. The couple also needs to heal by restoring trust and dealing with underlying issues. At OWA Therapy, I focus on overcoming those underlying issues.

Working with couples is actually working with two individuals. Each person brings their own unique personality to the couple relationship. Where those personalities clash, and a clash is inevitable, there is an opportunity to learn something about the Self. Why is it that I react the way I do to this aspect of my partner? Do I like this about my Self? Would I like to be able to respond rather than react? Moving into this territory is moving into the land of personal growth which is possible through being in a relationship. It's moving to a place where you have the opportunity to become the best person you can be and to move beyond the personality you inherited through your history.

It is normal for couples to have some ups and downs over time. Disagreements, and competing values and expectations can be hard to navigate and can cause hurt feelings, and arguments. In therapy you will deepen your connection, better understand each others needs and wants, while learning important skills to help you communicate better and resolve conflict.

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.

I utilize an integrative therapeutic approach when working with couples. One is Emotional Focused Therapy, Systems Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

When two unique individuals come together to form intimate connections, a tapestry of complexity unfolds. I firmly believe that every relationship is unique, and I tailor therapy to suit the specific needs and dynamics of each couple. My approach is centered on fostering effective communication, building emotional intimacy, and strengthening the connection between partners. By creating a safe and non-judgmental space, I encourage open dialogue and active listening, enabling partners to express their feelings, concerns, and needs. My framework uses Gottman principles and techniques derived from Imago therapy to develop practical personalized tools to strengthen your relationship.

Couples therapy is a collaborative approach and a safe space to communicate how you feel. Marriage and couples counseling tends to deal with present-day events rather than the past. It focuses on the 'now' and the challenges of married life so that you can get your relationship back on track. Couples therapy deals with the present day but also any history that causes unhealthy patterns of relating. Using the Gottman Method, I focus on communication and conflict resolution and what areas need improvement where we will then learn about creating new connections and rituals. We will also focus on building new meanings and shared value systems that will help you strengthen your relationshi

I prioritize creating a neutral, encouraging, and comfortable environment during our sessions to work collaboratively to restore your connection with your partner. Couples therapy offers a safe, supportive setting that promotes open, honest communication. Improving communication abilities enables you to explore hidden concerns and previous emotional traumas that might be present. By engaging in this process, you will gain a more profound comprehension of your partner, discover ways to assist you in the face of life's difficulties, and form an authentic, all-encompassing, and significant connection while cultivating the abilities and resources to handle tension within the relationship.

Healthy relationships take commitment & work. I help couples increase emotional intimacy & connection. I help them stop unhelpful ways of interacting, achieve resolution to their unresolved conflicts, & take responsibility for their negative contributions to patterns. Couple relationships require re-committing ourselves to each other repeatedly throughout the length of our relationship. I will help you to learn to "turn towards" one another. I will also help you to eliminate the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, a phrase coined by couple researches John and Julie Gottman. Lastly, all couple relationships include pursuer-distancer patterns. I will help you identify these and work to stop them.

Over the course of your relationship, you are going to face its ups and downs. Learning how to meet all that life may throw at you, together as a couple and grow stronger in each experience are just some of the many benefits of couples counselling I provide. I help you develop the tools you need for when your relationship goes through a tough time. You'll learn how trust and open to your partner and feel safe, how to respond to your partner's needs during the good and the bad times, keep moving forward and blooming as the time goes by.

In working with couples, the relationship is my client. My goal is to ensure that both partners feel heard and validated.
