Find new strategies to communicate more effectively, increase your intimacy and break free of old unhealthy habits

Couples counseling gives couples the tools to communicate better, negotiate differences and problem solve in healthier ways. Most relationships are not perfect and each individual brings their own values, opinions and histories into the relationship, which may contradict their partner's views. This does not mean that the relationship is doomed for failure, rather it can create a complimentary symmetry between the the individuals. Sometimes individuals seek couples therapy to strengthen their relationship and create a better understanding of one another.
Some of the common difficulties that couples experience that bring them to couples counselling include:
* Infidelity * Finances * Communication Difficulties
* Divorce * Cultural Differences * Sexual Difficulties
* Substance Abuse * Finances * Anger and Resentment
* Blended Families * Unemployment * Life Transitions
