"Behind every great relationship are difficult and uncomfortable conversations we rarely get to see. Great relationships don't just fall into our laps. They require people to move through their fears and insecurities and do hard work to move wounds into healing." -Vienna Pharaon
There are two things that determine a successful life: our relationship with ourselves and our relationships with others. Just as personal development requires awareness, acceptance, appreciation, action, and adherence, so does relational development. Couple's counselling works to rebuild this foundation by establishing a safe place to address our needs, triggers, and desires.
The life cycle of intimate partner relationships involves navigating various phases and challenges over time. While some transitions—like welcoming children or purchasing a home—are anticipated, others may arise unexpectedly. Partners may need to adjust to chronic mental health issues, substance use disorders, or recover from infidelity.
These planned and unplanned experiences can strain the connection that sustains a healthy relationship.
Research shows that both partners' commitment and effective communication are essential for relationship resilience. Our knowledge and expertise regarding how to help couples grow and maintain healthy, meaningful connections, successfully confront and overcome experiences of crisis, and enjoy lasting and satisfying relationships has significantly changed and developed over time. We utilize evidence-based therapeutic models and interventions tailored that can contribute to improving the quality of couple relationships. Through compassionate support and proven techniques, we empower couples to confront crises and cultivate meaningful, enduring relationships. Our services strive to meet individual partners and couples where they are at, help them define and support their relationship goals, and create a picture and pathway forward on how to achieve those goals.

Are you and your partner struggling to move past a significant relationship rupture? At My Holistic Self Counselling, we understand that these moments can feel overwhelming and isolating. Our couple's therapy is designed to provide a safe, compassionate space for you both to heal, rebuild trust, and reconnect. Through evidence-based techniques and empathetic guidance, we help you navigate the pain and uncertainty, fostering a deeper understanding and renewed commitment to each other. Don't let a rupture define your relationship—let us support you in finding a path to healing and growth together.
In any relationship, differing agendas and goals can create tension and misunderstandings. We specialize in helping couples navigate these differences with empathy and effective communication. Our therapy sessions focus on understanding each partner's perspective, finding common ground where possible, and developing strategies to move forward together or separate as peacefully as possible. By fostering mutual respect and collaboration, we work together to bridge the gap and strengthen your communication.
Are you and your partner caught in a cycle of constant arguments, intense emotions, and unresolved conflicts? Our specialized therapy services for high conflict couples offer a lifeline to help you navigate these turbulent waters. Our sessions focus on improving communication, fostering emotional intimacy, and breaking destructive patterns. With compassion and expertise, we guide you towards understanding, forgiveness, and a deeper connection.
Separation and divorce bring about profound emotional upheaval and change. We are committed to supporting you through this difficult time. Our therapy focuses on helping you process your emotions, communicate effectively, and establish a new sense of normalcy. We provide a compassionate space to explore your feelings and find ways to cope with the transition. Let us help you find your way forward, rebuild your life, and embrace new beginnings with confidence and hope.
Communication is the key to strengthening a couples’ trust and connection. Having healthy communication means being able to express your needs, listening, and respecting each other. Couple's therapy can help identify harmful habits and find new helpful ways to communicate with one another.
Connection promotes intimacy on all levels. Connected partners feel drawn to each other, mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. This connection provides safety, where each partner is comfortable being vulnerable with the other. Couple's therapy can address the drift that happens in relationships and help you navigate your way back to each other.
Trust is foundational for a healthy relationship. In order to have trust, you must have commitment, safety, and reliability. When trust has been broken, the foundation of the relationship cracks, resulting in instability, insecurity and division. Couple's therapy can help you navigate this breach, allowing space to mend the cracks and rebuild a solid foundation to move forward.

Why do we call our price list an investment instead of a cost? By definition, cost is just an expenditure of money, time, or resources while an investment is an expenditure that is sent out because it has the possibility of a return. We say investment instead of cost because you are not simply expending resources when you engage in psychotherapy, as you journey with your psychotherapist, you are investing in yourself, your health and wellbeing.
