Relationship Counselling

Relationships are where we often feel our deepest joy—and sometimes our deepest pain. Whether it’s a romantic partnership, chosen family, friendship, or polyamorous constellation, relationships shape how we feel about ourselves, how we connect with others, and how safe we feel to be who we truly are.

Sometimes connection feels easy. Other times, it’s marked by misunderstandings, hurt feelings, or patterns that keep repeating no matter how much you try to change them. You might be feeling distant from your partner(s), stuck in cycles of conflict, navigating different needs, or trying to rebuild trust after a rupture.

Relationship counselling isn’t about taking sides—it’s about creating a space where everyone involved feels heard, respected, and understood. We work together to slow down the conversation, uncover what’s really happening beneath the surface, and develop ways of relating that feel healthier and more fulfilling. The goal isn’t perfection—it’s building a relationship (or relationships) where all partners feel safe, seen, and valued.

I work with:

  • Monogamous, non-monogamous, and polyamorous relationships

  • LGBTQIA+ couples and partnerships

  • Intercultural and interfaith relationships

  • Long-distance relationships

  • Relationships navigating major life changes (parenthood, relocation, career shifts, illness)

 

Relationship counselling can help you:

  • Improve communication and conflict resolution

  • Rebuild trust and connection after a rupture

  • Understand and shift unhelpful patterns

  • Navigate differences in values, needs, or desires

  • Deepen intimacy—emotional, physical, or both

  • Negotiate agreements in non-monogamous or polyamorous relationships

  • Manage external stressors (family dynamics, cultural pressures, work stress) together
