Reconnect and Thrive
Is your relationship facing challenges? We'll work together to improve communications, increase connection and cooperation.
Common Challenges in Relationships
Many people struggle to communicate their wants and needs in ways that invite support and make their lives less challenging and and more rewarding. Couples therapy addresses common communication breakdowns. It helps you develop healthier and more effective patterns of engagement. With progress, you can expect to achieve greater understanding and experience less defensiveness. You can work to increase your connection to each other and address resentments that keep you from being closer and supporting each other through times of change.
Communication Breakdown
Therapy helps you to connect to your own and your partner's needs. It helps you become less reactive and more attentive to yearnings. Complaints become invitations to know each other better when you're supported to examine what it really is that you yearn for in your relationship.
Unmet Expectations
Feeling disappointed or resentful due to unfulfilled desires within the relationship? Therapy will address expectations and generate hope for renewed feelings of intimacy. Opportunities to examine old rules that derive from your own family-of-origin are a helpful strategy to build bridges to greater understanding and appreciation.
Conflict Resolution
Struggling to navigate disagreements constructively and find mutually agreeable solutions? Therapy helps you identify common, repeating problems. You will learn to discuss issues in new ways that promote greater understanding. We'll work on what's possible to change about how you start and end discussions of difficult subjects.
Find Hope and Healing
At Balanced Minds Counselling, we believe in the power of hope. If couples could take away one feeling or thought from this page, it would be hope for renewed connection and a feeling of "us against the world".
What to expect from Couples Therapy
My approach to couples therapy stands out because I help each person uncover what drives them to be a better partner, to explore their reasons for choosing this relationship today. I support each you to think of yourselves as an explorer as well as a partner.
