Your relationship is great but you struggle in the bedroom. You (or your partner) have no desire anymore. When you do try it, it’s awkward and unfulfilling. Maybe you experience pain, or feel disconnected. You don’t know how to talk about it, and when you try it turns into a fight or disappointment. You are good friends (and parents) but you feel more like roommates than lovers. You can't remember the last time sex was easy and fun. Or maybe it's the other way around, sex is great, but you can't stop fighting. Or maybe it's both. I'd love to help. I love working with couples who feel they are stuck. Let's get you unstuck.

Counselling for the Health of It
Maybe you struggle with constant guilt, anxiety, feeling disconnected, struggling with ADHD, your job, parenting, balancing all your responsibilities, or just not knowing what you want. Perhaps you struggle with not feeling good enough, or you often find yourself putting everyone else’s needs first- even if it comes at the expense of your needs being compromised. You might find it hard to accept help, rest, or ask for what you want due to fears of inadequacy, rejection, or guilt. These patterns may be lifelong or recent. Either way, I’m here to help. You don’t have to figure this out alone—it's too much for one person to carry.

I enjoy helping couples who are struggling to find closeness in their relationship; typical goals are usually to improve communication and overall connection. I equally enjoy supporting individuals young and old who struggle to manage anxiety, depression, obsessions compulsions, traumas (i.e., military, car accidents), grief and loss, addictions (I.e., sexual). Goals often become finding ways to process past hurts and learn how to manage their emotions in healthier ways. With trauma in particular, I find people need support to get past stuck points that make it hard to differentiate the here and now from the trauma itself.

Relational Counsellors
How does relational therapy work?
Relational therapy was developed by psychologist Jean Miller, whose ideas stressed that having strong connections with others encourages better health and well-being when compared with a lonely existence. Conversely, poor interpersonal relationships do not foster growth and learning. Relational therapy also encourages trust in others and patience with others, along with better communication and less conflict.
Is relational therapy evidence-based?
Relational therapy is not well-studied, and it may not be as effective in treating certain mental health conditions when compared with evidence-based treatments like cognitive behavioural or acceptance and commitment therapy. However, relational therapy uses techniques found in cognitive behavioural therapy as well as psychodynamic therapy, which are both well-studied with empirical research.
How long are people typically in relational therapy?
Clients may see improvement after a few weeks or months of therapy. Like cognitive behavioral therapy, relational therapy can reduce symptoms within 10 to 20 weeks, at 45 to 50 minutes once a week. But like any type of therapy, improvement depends on the person and the severity of the problem.
Does relational therapy work?
While no therapy type will work for everyone, some evidence suggests that this therapy can be effective. Relational therapy can help a person manage problematic relationships as well as the mental health conditions that accompany difficult relationships like depression or anxiety. This therapy type may offer benefits that are hard to measure but can be just as valuable—including feelings of higher self-worth or healthier connections with others.
