This service is not solely for romantic partners, which is why I use the term 'Relationship Counselling' and not 'Couples Counselling'. The relationship involved may be between co-workers, family members or two individuals in a professional or business arrangement. Relationship counselling involves guiding the members of a human relationship in order to enhance what is working, improve communication, and address areas of disconnect or conflict.

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

We are not prepared to be married. Clouded with romantic ideals and unreasonable expectations, our relationships can quickly begin to feel lacking in fulfillment. I believe that most couples don't want divorce. What they do want is to feel connected again and safe again. I use Imago Therapy and Emotion Focused Therapy to help couples re-connect. Building a healthy marriage takes both time and commitment. The skills you will obtain will give you a clear path to reconnection and safety.

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.

One of the most detrimental problems that I have seen in Family Therapy is when parents become so overwhelmed by life, inundated by the responsibilities with their children (hockey, karate, tutoring, piano, etc), and consumed in running the household that they forget about the relationship that they have with their spouse. I hear things like “I don’t even know my husband anymore”, “there just isn’t any time left for us”, “we are growing apart”, or “we can’t agree on anything; not the kids, not the house, not the dog… help!” All is not lost and there are ways to learn to balance all of the aforementioned intricacies of a family dynamic. You don’t have to hold it all together by yourself.

Asking for help can be the hardest step. You may be here because there’s been a lot of conflict recently, maybe you’re noticing that you and your partner aren’t as connected as you once were, or maybe you’re looking to build a resilient foundation for your relationship.

Using evidence-based strategies, we can address communication patterns, manage conflicts, and deepen understanding. I offer free consultations to help you decide if I’m a good fit.

Over the years I have worked with many configurations of couples; same sex, open, non-binary. I tend to draw from an emotionally-focussed approach and find moments of tender vulnerability to be so profoundly healing. I also really enjoy creative "out of the box" outdoor experiential activities that I orchestrate based on the particular couple and their concerns. I find these activities can become playful and bonding for couples.

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.

In a warm and empathetic environment I assist couples in building trust, improving communication and working through conflict. My work involves helping change problematic thinking and communication, guiding through pain and forgiveness and helping you build the skills you need to improve your relationship both now and in the future.

I support couples at any stage of their relationship, who are seeking to strengthen their bonds and appreciation for one another by identifying potential negative interaction cycles, fostering respectful communication and repair focused on understanding each other’s needs.

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.

I have been a couple therapist for over 10 years and have enjoyed every minute of it! I have found great success using Gottman and Solution-Focused Strategies. Couples seemed to appreciate these approaches, as they seem practical and easy to comprehend. As well, the Gottman resources and its foundation sound research have seemed to empower clients to take charge of their situations with confidence.

As human beings, we are wired for connection, and when a relationship feels conflicted, the ripple effects touch every part of our lives. In therapy with me, couples find a safe space to acknowledge the hardships they face while working to strengthen their bond. Together, we focus on improving communication, deepening understanding of yourself and your partner, and exploring what secure attachment could feel like in your relationship. With curiosity and compassion, we uncover the root causes of dysfunctional patterns and practice repair. This process helps couples rebuild trust, nurture intimacy, and create a healthier, more resilient connection.

Couples desire to seek the most from their relationships. Whether it is rekindling a passion they once possessed, resolving disagreements in more effective ways, or fighting to exist as a loving partnership, building a secure emotional connection often lies at heart of it. As an emotionally-focused therapist (EFT), couples will be taught to recognize patterns that keep them trapped in conflict and interchange them with more adaptive patterns to assist them out of it. Through learning the principles of EFT, partners discover they can face new challenges together and develop a deep sense of emotional safety, security, and love.

Couple work is about supporting both partners as they work to support the relationship between them. The relationship is what you create, from the foundation up. It requires a plan, developed with strength and wisdom; built with equanimity and sacrifice; maintained with compassion and kindness. The rewards are endless. It requires each partner to put the other first, and when you do that, you both win.

Romantic relationships are both beautiful and complex. It is the weaving of two threads of individual stories, dreams, fears, and aspirations. Successful couples counseling isn't imposing a 'right' way to love or the creation of uniform guidelines for all relationships. It's about respecting the unique dance between you and your partner. You'll gain tools for enhanced courageous communication and conflict resolution during vulnerability while fostering a relationship embedded in genuineness, mutual respect, and deep caring.

My work with couples focuses on working through the challenges and processing the feelings that addiction can bring into a relationship. Whether it’s learning strategies to navigate the chaos of the ongoing addiction or repairing the damage after its ended, I provide couples a safe and nonjudgmental space to talk about their unique feelings and experiences. I help couples process their anger, hurt and shame, repair the broken trust and learn to support one another more effectively. Couples have a renewed sense of connection, greater resiliency to handle challenges, and hope for their future as a couple.

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.
