How Counselling Can Help…

Great relationships don’t just happen, they need to be cultivated. Sometimes this requires extra support from someone outside of your family, friendship circle.

♦ Learn honest, respectful communication, so you both feel valued and heard.

♦ Re-establish trust and enjoy the closeness that comes from a committed relationship.

♦ Develop more love and intimacy and reignite sexual passion.

♦ Manage conflict in a positive way, so it strengthens your relationship.

♦ Develop meaning, purpose, and vision in your relationship and your own life

I work with couples and individuals wanting to create effective change in their relationships…

◊ Pre-marriage couples
◊ New relationship issues
◊ Intimacy after children
◊ Empty nesters
◊ Trust issues

What to expect in couple counselling

In our first couple of sessions we cover the history of your relationship and identify your concerns. Sometimes this involves an online assessment for each of you, and an individual session each to help us better understand what is happening in the relationship.

This initial process takes one to two weeks (depending on your available time), and helps us establish strong goals, and a plan tailored to your needs.

* After Hours Sessions Available.
