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

You can have an even better relationship! I work with you to identify what your issues are. We learn what your communication issues are, what is working and what is not in your relationship and implement practical action plans to improve this. Further, we identify your negative patterns of relating to each other and how this is a habit that hurts the relationship, and we learn how to get out of that pattern, shift behaviors, and relate in the most respectful, loving, kind manner which ultimately often improves your sex life, your happiness, and your fulfillment.

A satisfying relationship is one of life's greatest pleasures. The good news is we have the research available to know the predictors of relationship success and demise. Let me work with you to gain insight into the strengths in your relationship and provide you with the skills to overcome the challenges to create the relationship experience you each desire.

Couple therapy is a broad term for those who wish to address relationship concerns or would like assistance in navigating their relationship. Presenting topics may include breaches of trust, infidelity, (co)parenting, sex and intimacy, separation, exploration of relationship structure or general conflict and arguments. Often times, at nobody’s fault, couples may get caught in patterns of interaction that bring a lot of pain to the relationship. I will assist you in identifying these harmful interactions and work towards breaking that cycle with new ways of relating to each other. I am affirming of polyamorous and ethical non-monogamous relationships. Contact me to book a free consultation.

Whether you have been together for three months, three years or three decades, our conversations can help disrupt cycles of painful and negative interactions, heal past and present hurts, and create new ways of talking together. I can help you have conversations that are different from the ones you have at home and that allow you to speak to and hear one another in meaningful ways.

Does it feel like you keep having the same fights over and over again? Have you noticed there is more distance, less intimacy, and a sense of being 'apart' in your relationship? My approach to couples therapy includes thoroughly assessing the state of the relationship to uncover where the strengths and challenges lie. The goals are tailored to each unique relationship, but might include decreasing distance and increasing connection, uncovering problematic communication patterns and improving overall communication, building intimacy, working on future conflict management, creating shared visions, and enhancing safety and trust.

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.

Sometimes it can feel like you and your partner aren't on the same page. You can have the same conversation over and over again, but things don't change. In our time together, we will be uncovering the root of the issues and implementing strategies that will improve communication. We will also be focused on reestablishing a sense of security, safety, validation, and acceptance for one another.

Couples therapy can provide guidance, support and help you build upon your relationship, bond with your partner, and strengthen the connection that the two of you have so that you can continue to enjoy, appreciate, and experience fulfillment from your marriage or relationship.Couples therapy can also be helpful at any stage in your relationship. For example, you may be experiencing difficulties in your relationship or simply looking to improve your relationship further. There are always ways to strengthen a relationship, and the sooner you learn to communicate more effectively, build more trust, and receive healthy guidance, the more your relationship can grow.

You are at the end of your rope. You love your partner, you don't want to end the relationship but your partner is so distant and disconnected, so you are looking for help. Perhaps you just found out the awful truth that your partner is having an affair. Maybe you have tried couple therapy before and things improved a bit then you found yourself back in the same sad stuck place. Couples often need help to find their way back to each other. Please visit my website or call me to find out how I can help you heal wounds and create the strong loving connection with your partner that you deserve.

Couple counselling is quality time for your relationship. Whether you are in a new relationship, or a long-term one, you will experience an unbiased space to explore your unique strengths as well as potential growth areas within your relationship. Through a nonjudgmental lens, I will facilitate a therapeutic journey that result in greater awareness of self and other, which is a catalyst for change, and optimal growth. I am also a Prepare-Enrich facilitator. Whether your future will move towards marriage, cohabitation, or any other unique structure, we will explore what is right for you, your partner, and your relationship.

Relationships are not always easy; we are delicately balancing the needs of ourselves as individuals and the needs of the other within one space. When a couple comes in for counselling, we explore this field between you both, and see how to shift some relationship patterns in order for you both to better understand, and hear each other. From here we can make the adjustments necessary for you both to get what you need from the relationship. And, if moving away from each other is what will move one, or both of you to where you want to go, we navigate these physical, mental, and emotional changes and challenges safely and nonjuddmentally, for the wellbeing of everyone involved.
