ARE YOU AND YOUR PARTNER ARGUING FREQUENTLY
Has the trust in your relationship been broken?
Are communication and emotional intimacy at their lowest?
Do you wish you could better understand your partner and relationship?
Conflict in relationships happens to everyone, learn the steps to connect, and end the fighting.
It is a myth that going through a difficult time means you are not supposed to be together. Our goal is to guide you in turning your tough times into opportunities for growth. We can’t promise you it will be easy, but it will be worth it. Learn the steps to connect and stop fighting.
Our passion is to help couples thrive in their marriages and learn how to connect with one another. A strong marriage connection is also foundational to parenting. As couples strengthen their attachment to one another, they can parent more effectively helping their children grow into adults who have healthy relationships

WHAT TO EXPECT IN COUPLES THERAPY
Couples Therapy teaches you to connect and stop fighting! Our goal is to help you connect and end the fighting. You are a couple but you also have different needs and goals. Couples counseling will help you reduce conflict in your marriage. You will become more understanding of each others needs.
In the initial session(s), our therapists typically first meet with both of you together and then individually to address each party’s needs, worries, and strengths. This will give us a chance to explore your individual past history, triggers, and goals.
After that, we will come together to curate therapeutic goals and strategies to help get both of you to where you want to be.
You will be given exercises to work on outside of sessions, such as assigned talk time and active listening to improve your connection and communication. We work together with you to develop more effective communication skills. You will feel closer and more connected to your partner, and as a result become more intimate.
Treatment methods for your unique situation
Our therapists are highly trained in many different methods of couples therapy. We recognize that all relationships are unique, and you may choose to seek couples counselling for various reasons. Each partner’s personality also affects how we approach sessions. Therefore, we use numerous psychotherapy techniques to try and find the most effective method for our couples in order to give them the highest chance for success.
Two of the primary research-based interventions we use are the Gottman Method and Emotion-Focused Therapy for Couples (EFT-C)
The Gottman Method is a psychotherapy approach that is used to help with understanding your relationship better by assisting couples in reducing negative interactions and increasing positive ones. Its main goals are to address your problems through increasing closeness, addressing conflict productivity, and creating shared meaning
Emotion-Focused Therapy for Couples (EFT-C) is an empirically validated method that helps clients develop their emotional intelligence to become more aware of their emotions and negative behaviour patterns while learning new and healthier ways to approach conflict with their partner.
