Great Couples Counselling in Battleford, SK. Therapy to heal relationships.

We work with couples. However, typically meet with each member separately before working with couples. Many counselling programs are symptom based, and often don’t have the means to address the actual problems. This model is not symptom based, it is in‐depth, and works with people to find their core issues. We try to separate problems from symptoms to treat the actual problem, and not the symptoms the person is exhibiting; to do this we need to find where the problem originated. This means working with each individual separately and then bringing them together as couples if they choose. Although we incorporate couples it is important to note that our goal is mainly to build up each individual person so they can become an independent, assertive people who...(view profile to read more)

What are the most common couples' issues? If you are thinking "communication, conflict, sex, money, child rearing" you are correct. However, most therapists will go after the symptom on each side of the couple fence thinking that the way to effective change is by getting each party to "work" on their respective "issue". Many times the parties dont agree but comply. Imagine if you could align the unconscious brains of a couple and stop the "working on your issues" part that has become so popular in therapy settings?

Many couples who live together still struggle with a lack of intimacy, affection, or trust. Stress, career pressures, and communication difficulties can slowly create distance between partners. My approach integrates insights from attachment theory, which helps us understand how early relational patterns shape the way we seek closeness, respond to conflict, and experience vulnerability. Healthy relationships require more than communication; they also require the ability to repair the inevitable ruptures that occur between partners. I also emphasize imagination and change—learning to envision a shared future and to grow together as two evolving individuals facing life’s challenges.

Are you and your partner stuck in unsolvable arguments? Does one of you tend to ‘demand’ more while the other shuts down and withdraws? Are you feeling less connected and actually adding stress to each other’s lives instead of reducing it? While frustrating, these are perfectly normal patterns of partnership and there is hope. I would be glad to help you untangle the knots, learning to team up together instead of entering battles over who is right. In doing so, we will unpack past traumas and patterns of behaviour, learning to better communicate and to be safely vulnerable in a way that stands your relationship on solid ground.
