Divorce & Remarriage Our 40years of experience working with the dynamics of divorce and remarriage has shown us that unless an individual having gone through the divorce process, will inevitably be attracted to a similar personality type of the divorced spouse, commit themselves to re-marriage and find out within a few short months that they have re-married their ex-spouse even though the individual they married is a totally different personality. The resulting relationship becomes a repeat of marital history and marital discord, the very reason individuals sought divorce from their original spouse. The trauma of this process can be avoided if the individual having been divorced seeks person

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. My training is an evidence-based model utilizing tested interventions to support couples through times of transition or recognition. Book a free consultation

Couples therapy can be one of the hardest therapies to experience. When clients wait until one person is ready to leave the relationship, reconciliation feels doomed. With hard work and both partners willing to re-connect, learn different communication strategies, and how to handle conflict constructively, most couples can stay together. Couples therapy can be one of the most rewarding therapies to experience. When couples come to therapy as a preventive measure, couples can take their relationship to new levels of intimacy, connection, communication and joy. Couples therapy can be healing for couples who have decided they can no longer be together but want to end amicably.

Couples therapy and counselling aim to create a compassionate and dedicated space where partners can explore negative dynamics that are hindering their relationship. From a humanistic perspective, the goal is to focus on understanding each partner’s unique experiences and feelings and how these show up in our relationships with others. When we acknowledge and begin to address key issues in the relationship, such as conflict, loss of intimacy or a diminished connection the goal is to help guide couples through a rediscovery of each other, one that works to foster empathy, encourage open dialogue, and create moments of reconnection and reconciliation. I use a mix of the Gottman Method and EFT
