About
I am an attachment focused couples psychotherapist with 18 years of experience in mental health and drug, alcohol addictions. I employ an integrative approach to therapy, using emotionally focused therapy (EFT) as the gold standard to working with couples. I work with couples who are working to overcome an attachment injury, such as infedelity, as well as communication challenges and feeling as though you have grown apart and that the relationship is leaving you with unmet needs. Often times, our own attachment style, our personal histories including trauma and emotional regulation play a big part in our relationship challenges.
Couples counselling can help with a range of issues such as:
- Communication problems
- Conflict resolution
- Intimacy issues
- Major life transitions
- How to cope as new parents
- Jealousy
- Financial disagreements
- Infidelity
- Emotional connection
- Seperation
- Family dynamics
If you would like to learn more about how you are showing up in your relationship, as well as learning to "dance" in a new way with your partner, I'd be happy to offer a complementary consultation.
