Whether you are looking for a relationship tune-up, or you’re feeling hopeless about the future of your relationship, I am here to help. Clients often tell me that I help them feel truly understood, both by me and within their relationship. I prioritize creating a non-judgmental, empathetic environment because there’s nothing worse than feeling like your counsellor is shocked by your experience or biased against you. My goal is to help you and your partner move from feeling stuck and misunderstood to feeling supported, connected, and confident navigating challenges together. How will we do this? We will use the gold standards for couple’s counselling: the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy. We will start by identifying where you and your partner started to feel disconnected, identify the strengths and challenges in your relationship, and use evidence-based interventions to address your main concerns. We’ll start by addressing the issues that are most important to you both so you can start to feel hopeful about your relationship’s future. In sessions, we’ll identify ways of communicating that are preventing you from feeling heard and practice communicating in a different way. We’ll also focus on understanding what triggers disconnection between you and your partner and practice small, science-based steps to restore emotional connection. We’ll track the unconscious cycles that keep you and your partner stuck so you can break old patterns and strengthen your connection. I will integrate tools from Mindfulness-Based Somatic Therapy and Internal Family Systems to help you regulate your nervous system in triggering situations. In my spare time, I love spending time with my husband and our community, enjoying nature, baking, and creating “do-it-yourself” home or health projects. Some Areas of Passion Include: -Couples who feel emotionally distant and want to rebuild connection -Couples who feel like their past traumatic experiences are affecting how they show up in their relationship -Couples navigating ADHD or other forms of neurodivergence -Couples who are rebuilding their relationship and trust after betrayal -Couples who are wanting to strengthen their relationship before or after having kids -Couples navigating value differences or differences in goals for the future -Individuals and couples facing complex chronic illnesses who want to strengthen resilience and emotional connection -Individuals wanting to rediscover their sense of self and confidence after a breakup or major life change -Individuals who are wanting to implement positive changes in their relationships And more… Book a free consultation with me through our office to explore whether working together feels like the right fit for you!
