Therapy isn’t about fixing what’s wrong with you. It’s about learning how to trust yourself in ways that feel safe — especially when you’ve spent years overthinking, people-pleasing, or pushing yourself to hold it all together.

If you are developing a mental health problem or are in a mental health crisis, I have experienced the difference that mental health support and treatment can make. Life often brings all kinds of stressors and demands. We don't need to struggle.

Are you or your relationship struggling with infertility, loss, pregnancy, birth trauma, postpartum, PPD or parenting? This stage of life can feel like a cruel joke nobody warned you about. If you’ve ever caught yourself thinking “this isn’t what I signed up for” while hiding out for a few minutes of peace, I get it. As a therapist and a mom who’s struggled to get here, I know how isolating it can be. I offer a space to drop the mask, say the things you feel guilty for thinking, and find support through the messy, human reality of it all. Let’s face the stuff nobody warned you about together. No filters. No judgment. Just support.

My job is not to “walk along side you”, my job is to help you dissect, uncover, explore emotions, feel your feelings & discover narratives you’ve attached to them. I do this with you by using modalities such as Emotion Focused therapy with Attachment theory & Narrative therapy. In addition to talk therapy the Somatic experience (somatic nervous system) is just as important. I hold space for your somatic experience and in turn, you learn that it’s safe to hold space for your own somatic experience, too.

FAQ - Marriage Counselling
What issues does marriage counselling help with?
Marriage counselling can address common relationship concerns, including ongoing conflict, communication challenges, emotional distance, or difficulty making decisions together. It may also be helpful for couples who are not currently experiencing major problems but want to prepare for future life changes. For more specific concerns affecting one individual in the relationship, such as trauma, depression, or significant substance use concerns, individual therapy may be more appropriate than marriage counselling.

When is the right time to start marriage counselling?
There is no single “right” time to start marriage counselling, but certain signs may suggest that counselling could be helpful. For example, a couple may benefit from counselling if many conversations end in conflict, if negative interactions are becoming more frequent, or if relationship stress is affecting other areas of life, such as sleep, work, parenting, or friendships. Some couples also seek counselling proactively. Premarital counselling, for instance, allows couples to discuss communication styles, finances, family dynamics, and future goals before getting married. Other couples may start counselling before a major life change, such as becoming parents, relocating, or navigating a stressful career transition.

Is marriage counselling effective if only one partner wants to go?
Marriage counselling may still help even if one partner is more hesitant to attend, as long as both people are ultimately willing to participate in sessions. Once counselling is underway, the more hesitant partner may become more open to sessions that can strengthen the relationship and build coping skills and communication strategies. If one partner refuses to attend, individual therapy may still help the other partner understand their needs, set boundaries, and decide how to approach the relationship.

Is online marriage counselling as effective as in-person?
There are differing opinions on the best format for marriage counselling. While some studies show that online marriage counselling can be as effective as in-person counselling, some argue that in-person counselling is more effective because it allows the therapist to better pick up on context and body language cues. In addition, in-person counselling may be a better fit for couples who are working through high-conflict issues. Ultimately, the “best” format depends on the couple’s specific needs and concerns.

What is faith-based marriage counselling and how is it different?
Faith-based marriage counselling incorporates a couple’s religious or spiritual beliefs into counselling. It may be a good fit for couples who want to discuss their relationship, values, and marriage within the context of their faith. For example, Christian marriage counselling may appeal to couples who want a counsellor familiar with Christian beliefs about marriage. Other forms of faith-based counselling may incorporate Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, or other religious perspectives into sessions.

How much does marriage counselling cost and is it covered by insurance?
Marriage counselling often costs CAD $150 to $250 or more per session, depending on location, therapist experience, session length, and practice setting. Many clients pay out of pocket, although some private or employer-sponsored extended health benefits may cover part of the cost. Lower-cost options may be available through sliding scale fees, which adjust the cost of counselling based on your income or financial circumstances, and community clinics, which may offer reduced-cost services through nonprofit organizations or publicly funded programs.
