Before coming to see me couples are tired of having the same conflicts again and again, they feel lost and as though they are at an impasse, feeling that the trust is broken, that they are totally disconnected and don’t know how to fix things.
Before coming to see me, clients feel so anxious that it keeps them up at night. They are often filled with a sense of dread. They have a pit in their stomach and tightness in their chest. They worry that they are not doing enough. They feel overwhelmed and even panicked. They worry about making mistakes. They worry that people are judging them.

I'm a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) using the Gottman Method, working with couples and with individuals navigating anxiety and the relationship patterns that began long before their current partnership.
Every session has a direction. I notice the things that go unsaid, and I name them. When one of you shuts down, I'll step in and ask what's really coming up. I move with intention and I won't let a session drift. Couples who do the work stop dreading going home, and the connection that felt lost starts to come back.

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.
