Let us get to the heart of the matter.
Love, belonging, connection and relationships, are vital to our human experience. Similar to other areas of our lives, problems and issues do arise in relationships. I provide a safe, welcoming and non-judgmental space to talk about and explore this vital part of your journey. I have an avid interest in working couples, whose intention is to revitalize and strengthen their relationship bonds; excel in their communication exchange; deepen their connection with each other; and recover and repair harm caused by conflict.
What marriage and relationship counselling approaches are used in Halifax session?
I am trained in Emotion-focused Externship Therapy (EFT) and The Gottman Method (TGM) approaches. Couples in therapy are supported through processing attachment trauma and increasing their understanding of their attachment needs and that of their partner’s; as well as how to foster secure bonds between them. Couples are also engaged in understanding destructive interaction patterns and learn new, healthy communicative styles which fosters connection and intimacy.
As a counselling therapist, my approach is integrative and adaptive to the client’s needs, life stage and other factors presented in our sessions.
Benefits of Relationship and Marriage Counselling:
- Couples give themselves an opportunity to unlearn destructive interactive patterns and learn healthy communication styles that meets each other’s needs while fostering emotional safety and connection.
- Strengthen emotional connection through open, honesty conversation in a new way that gives space to healing from past harms experienced. Partners enter the new chapter of their relationship as co-collaborators to the vision of their new relationship.
- Couple will become attuned to each other needs and learn how to respond with care.
- The quality of our relationship influences our quality of life, mental health and well-being. Unresolved relationship problems can result in stress and physiological manifestations. Couples counselling teaches partners skills on how to resolve conflict through effective communication, emotional self-regulation, mindful self-compassion, increase emotional intelligence and manage insecurities.
- Offer a safe, non-judgement space to disclose your feelings without fear or rejection. With curiosity and compassion, I will support you by facilitating difficult conversations and uncover the underlying issues.
