Couples Counselling
Relationships are one of the most meaningful and important parts of our lives, yet they can also be some of the most challenging. Whether you're navigating conflict, feeling emotionally distant and lacking intimacy, struggling with communication, or healing after a betrayal, you're not alone - and you're not beyond repair.
COMMUNICATION BREAKDOWN
Helping couples identify unhelpful communication patterns and learn how to listen, express themselves clearly, and resolve misunderstandings without escalating conflict.​
​
EMOTIONAL & PHYSICAL INTIMACY
Helping partners reconnect emotionally and physically, exploring blocks to closeness, sexual dissatisfaction, or mismatched needs for affection and intimacy.
​
DECIDING TO STAY OR SEPERATE (Discernment Counselling)
Supporting couples who are uncertain about their future together in exploring their options, gaining clarity, and making thoughtful, respectful decisions, whether it’s to recommit or part ways.
​
REBUILDING TRUST AFTER BETRAYAL
Guiding couples through the healing process after infidelity, secrecy, or broken trust. Rebuilding safety, openness and emotional honesty.
​
CONFLICT RESOLUTION & ANGER MANAGEMENT
Supporting couples in handling disagreements constructively, reducing defensiveness and blame, and managing anger or emotional reactivity in a way that protects the relationship.
​
NAVIGATING LIFE TRANSITIONS TOGETHER
Supporting couples during major life changes. Such as becoming parents, career shifts, relocation, illness, or loss that may strain the relationship or shift dynamics.
​
​MANAGING DIFFERENCES & EXPECTATIONS
Helping couples understand and respect each other’s values, cultural backgrounds, personalities, and life goals, especially where these differences create tension or misunderstanding.
Issues That I Can Help With
My approach to couples counselling is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in evidence based practices. I work with both of you to understand the unique dynamics of your relationship. What’s working, what’s not, and what’s being left unsaid. My aim is not to assign blame or to make anyone the villain, but to help you both feel seen and heard, and to build healthier ways of relating that help you have a better understanding of each other and each others perspective.

​Some couples come to therapy, unsure if they want to stay together? Others are committed, but struggling. I hold space for all possibilities. My role is not to steer you in one direction, but to help you make choices that are informed, respectful, and true to your individual and shared needs. As a couples therapist, I provide a safe, supportive, and non judgmental space, where both of you can begin to understand one another more openly, and move towards greater authentic understanding.
Couples come to therapy for many reasons. Sometimes it's a breakdown in communication where arguments seem to go in circles, leaving both of you feeling unheard. Other times, it's a gradual drifting apart, where closeness and intimacy feel like a memory. There might be unresolved resentment, difficulty expressing needs, or external pressures, such as parenting, careers or finances causing stress in the relationship. Whatever has brought you here, therapy offers a place to pause, reflect, and begin rebuilding.
