Our couples therapists will work collaboratively with your relationship to understand your dynamics, identify what’s keeping you stuck, and explore meaningful goals for change.

​

Some of the relational approaches our therapists use include:​​​

 

​Narrative Therapy

Narrative Therapy is a collaborative, non-pathologizing approach that views people as separate from their problems. It is grounded in the idea that the stories we hold about ourselves—shaped by our lived experiences, relationships, culture, and the messages we’ve received throughout life—influence how we see ourselves, others, and what we believe is possible for our future. These stories can be empowering, but they can also become limiting when they are heavily influenced by trauma, oppressive systems, or past experiences that told us we were not enough, not safe, or not worthy. Narrative Therapy helps you explore, question, and re-author these stories so they reflect your strengths, intentions, and values—not just the difficult experiences you’ve lived through.

Gottman Method Couples Therapy

Using evidence-based tools to strengthen communication, trust, and mutual understanding, the Gottman method helps couples apply strategies to better deal with conflict, practice openness and curiosity toward one another, and navigate life as a team.​

 

Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT)

Based on the work of Dr. Sue Johnson, EFT is a structured, attachment-based approach that helps partners understand the emotional patterns beneath conflict and reconnect through their deeper needs for safety, closeness, and responsiveness.

 

​Culturally Sensitive and Intersectional Care

Relationships, and the individuals that compose these relationships, are shaped by the larger contexts they exist and develop in. We take a trauma-informed, systemic approach that centres our clients' voices and evaluates dynamics of power, privilege, and marginalization within and outside the therapy room.​
