Our couples therapists use evidence-based approaches, including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and the Gottman Method, to help you break negative cycles, communicate safely and rebuild closeness. Sessions are a neutral space: your therapist doesn't take sides. They help you both feel heard.
For intimacy concerns, we also offer sex therapy.

What if my partner doesn't want to come?
You can start individual sessions on your own. Many people find their partner joins later. Changing your side of the pattern can also shift the relationship.
How many sessions will we need?
Many couples notice change within 8 to 12 sessions. It depends on your goals and how long the issues have been going on.
Is couples counselling covered by insurance?
Often, yes, when you see a registered or provisional psychologist. Check your plan, and see our fees and insurance page.
