When your relationship and life wear you down, professional counselling can help! You may be caught in escalating arguments that you can't resolve, no matter how hard you try. I can help you create the safety and guidance you need to calm the conflict and strengthen your connection. I have helped hundreds of couples learn effective communication patterns, grow close again and rekindle the spark of intimacy. As an individual, you may be feeling depressed and anxious too much.

My couple clients typically struggle with repeating arguments that create disconnection and a well of hurt. The more desperate we feel in our relationship, the more our messages to each other can get lost in translation. I can help you create the safety and guidance you need to explore beneath the frustration and anger and to rebuild the connection and trust that strengths your love bond.

I primarily draw on Emotionally Focused Therapy with couple and marriage counselling. You will be supported to track and understand the cycles of conflict you are stuck in. As you begin to feel heard and understood, your distress will lessen and optimism grow. Two primary change processes will fundamentally change your perception, paving the way for a strengthened connection & renewed intimacy.
