Couples Counselling

Tired of Struggling in Relationship?

You may find yourself stuck in zones & tones of disconnect in your relationship

and, even through well intended efforts, it's challenging to find the way home to

yourself & the beloved you once felt so connected to. How has this happened?

What is it really all about?

What possibilities are there to grow

through these challenges & feel a Love even more

profound than when you first began?

Unless you make a new choice, the same

things continue to happen.

Couples Counselling can help with issues such as

Communication  

Conflict

Patterns that Sabotage Relationship Satisfaction

Distance or Sense of Disconnect

Reactivity

Stagnant Relationships

Emotional & Sexual Intimacy

Infidelity

Betrayal

Safety & Trust

Boundaries

“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek

& find all the barriers within yourself

that you have built against it.” ~

Rumi

Embracing New Possibility

Relationships can be one of our greatest sources of nourishment &


catalysts for personal growth.


When we learn to embrace the challenge of triggers & upsets in relationship as

opportunities for greater self knowledge, self Love, intimacy, & connection, we are

at the threshold of major life transformation on all levels.



In counselling, you will both be supported to take new steps toward healing your

relationship & develop the skills necessary to transform the challenges in your

relationship into a doorway to profound Love, Intimacy, & Joy.

Couples Counselling with Rebecca

Registered Therapeutic Counsellor

In our sessions, I meet you where you’re at & I am deeply dedicated to offering a neutral perspective and a fair process, mediating for the benefit of both people as we work toward greater understanding, connection, healing, and healthy outcomes for you both.



I will support you to develop important communication skills and offer powerful

experiential processes to guide each of you through and beyond your defences, to get in

touch with one another on a deep level, bring compassion to your core struggle and

support you to create healing & transformation there. You'll be guided to create

new patterns of connection, emotional responsibility & loving intimacy.

I offer you a safe, sacred space, deep empathy & presence, personal authenticity &

excellent therapeutic support with training in multiple modalities to support your unique

journey of healing & transformation.

(Relationships & communication are a special interest for me.  My Couples counselling & Relationship Courses are

informed by leading Relationship experts such as the Gottman Method, Dr. Sue Johnson's Emotionally Focussed Therapy, the

Developmental Model of Dr. Ellyn Bader's Couples Institute, Terry Real's Relational Life Therapy, and Marshall Rosenberg's

Compassionate Communication.  To learn more about the psychological perspectives I work with, you can visit our About page.)

If your relationship struggles have become unbearable or if you have simply come

to the understanding that things aren’t as wonderful as they could be & you wish

to work towards greater Thriving in Love, Intimacy & Joy,

there is hope.

It's All About Relationships!

I have a Special Limited Invitation:

Transform Your Relationship with

Relational Life Therapy

50% Off Limited-Time Practicum Offer

As I complete my practicum toward certification in

Relational Life Therapy (RLT) with the Relational Life Institute, I’m extending a special invitation to a small number of couples to experience this work at 50% off my regular rate.

RLT, developed by Terry Real, is a direct, compassionate, and transformative approach to relationship healing. It goes beyond traditional talk therapy - helping couples uncover the root causes of disconnection and move from blame and resentment into truth, repair, and authentic intimacy.

In our sessions, I guide couples to see the unconscious patterns that keep them stuck, and to replace defensiveness with vulnerability, responsibility, and love. Together, we rebuild communication, respect, and emotional safety—allowing each partner to be fully seen and heard.

My work blends RLT principles with somatic awareness, emotional fluency, Indigenous and spiritual wisdom, and over two decades of counselling experience. This integration helps couples not just understand each other intellectually, but truly reconnect on a heart and soul level.

If you and your partner are ready to deepen your relationship,

resolve long-standing challenges, and rediscover joy in one another,

this practicum offer is a rare opportunity to do so at a significantly reduced rate.

Spaces are limited and available for a short time.
