People come for relationship counselling when they are feeling disconnected or stuck. They’ve tried everything they know how to do but they end up in the same arguments.
It might feel like you’re just not hearing each other or you can’t get your partner to understand. One person might blame or criticize and the other gets defensive or shuts down and walks away. If you feel caught in a circular argument or pattern of behaviour in your relationship that seems to repeat itself over and over again, counselling can help you to reconnect.
We will work together to identify and change the pattern of interaction that leads to the conflict so that it's possible to reconnect and draw closer together again.
"Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all
the barriers within yourself that you have built against it"
Helen Schucman
I have training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), the Developmental Model of Couples Counselling, and sex therapy. I draw from all three to meet you where you are and address the specific needs of your relationship.
The good news is that there is nothing wrong with either of you! The problem is the negative pattern that you've fallen into. We will work together to discover the negative cycle that is creating conflict and disconnection in your relationship. We then create a new positive pattern of interacting that draws you closer together again so that you'll have the tools to maintain a calm, secure, loving connection.
