Relationships often attract us with their promise of heaven, but can quickly end up feeling like hell. Emotional distance, loneliness, escalating fights, affairs, and addictions may leave you wondering what happened to the bright future you once envisioned with your partner. If this sounds like your marriage or relationship, know that you can come back from the brink. Relationship troubles can be confusing and stressful, but couples counselling can help you and your partner heal from past emotional injuries, rebuild a sense of closeness, and kick start communication on gridlocked issues.
I approach counselling in a collaborative manner, empowering you to connect with both yourself and your partner in deeper ways than you may have previously imagined possible. Together, we will rebuild your friendship with each other, develop effective new skills to navigate conflict, and create a deeper sense of shared meaning in your lives.
I truly admire the courage it takes to admit you need support and begin making changes in your relationship. When you are ready to reach out, please feel free to learn more about me and book with me online at www.illuminate-therapy.ca. Note: If you send me an email and don't hear back within 48 hours, please check your junk mail.

The therapy treatments I use most often include Gottman Method, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, and EMDR Therapy. That being said, I am what is known as an integrative therapist, meaning that I don't rigidly stick to one form of therapy. I prefer to create highly individualized treatment plans, choosing the tools and strategies from various modalities which are most likely to help you.
