Contrary to a popular mainstream belief, no one comes prepared to be in a relational partnership. In fact, what typically happens is: 1. We choose a partner who knows how to push the exact buttons that trigger us 2. We enter a relationship and 1, 2, 3 years later, realize our partner is unrecognizable and 100% *not* the same person we started dating. How does this happen? Using the evidence-based Gottman Method, I work with clients like you to identify where your relationship went off track, what keeps it off track, and what interventions can be employed to correct and maintain stability and security in the relationship. I help clients create internal and external boundaries, identify their personal triggers, and work on strategies to manage and soothe themselves. All within the context of a relationship. The results are: you can show up and be the best version of yourself, and you have tailored strategies to meet your partner in the way they need to be met. It sounds challenging, and it *is* hard work – but be assured, all the effort you put in during this time of high conflict will produce significant results for the long-term. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my husband and daughter. I also am passionate about exploring therapeutic techniques to help my clients reach their goals. I am a registered counsellor with both the BCACC (BC) and CCPA (across Canada). ## Latest Posts: - [ ![Navigating Love: The Power and Perks of Couples Counselling](https://bestmarriages.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/couples-labyrinth-768x432.png) ](https://bestmarriages.ca/navigating-love-the-power-and-perks-of-couples-counselling/) #### [Navigating Love: The Power and Perks of Couples Counselling](https://bestmarriages.ca/navigating-love-the-power-and-perks-of-couples-counselling/) ByKimberley Payne September 3, 2024September 3, 2024 Navigating Love The Power and Perks of Couples Counselling By Kimberley Payne and Darren Wilk Relationships, with all their love, laughter, and inevitable quirks,… [ Read More Navigating Love: The Power and Perks of Couples CounsellingContinue ](https://bestmarriages.ca/navigating-love-the-power-and-perks-of-couples-counselling/) - [ ![Valentine’s Day Date Ideas](https://bestmarriages.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/Valentines-Day-Couple-768x432.png) ](https://bestmarriages.ca/valentines-day-date-ideas/) #### [Valentine’s Day Date Ideas](https://bestmarriages.ca/valentines-day-date-ideas/) BySarah Coft February 9, 2024February 12, 2024 Valentine’s Day is just around the corner!
