Have you ever felt like your relationships could be stronger, but you’re unsure where to start?

Whether it’s struggles with communication, trust, or navigating major life changes, relationship counselling offers tools to help you find clarity, relief, and personal growth.

At Collaborative Care Therapy, I provide a space where you can feel supported and understood as we work together to improve your relationships. With over 10 years of experience as a trauma-informed, relational, and mindfulness-based therapist, I’m here to guide you in building deeper, healthier connections.

At Collaborative Care Therapy, I am dedicated to helping you break out of patterns of conflict and disconnection that might be holding you back.

Relationships can feel complicated, especially when past hurts or external pressures weigh heavily. I offer an inclusive and compassionate approach where you can:

  • Explore your feelings and relationship patterns.

  • Gain tools to navigate challenges.

  • Find new ways to foster meaningful connections.

I specialize in trauma-informed, relational, and mindfulness-based therapy, working with individuals across diverse backgrounds, including LGBTQ+, BIPOC, neurodivergent, and immigrant communities. Together, we’ll address challenges in a way that aligns with your unique experiences.

Is Relationship Counselling Right for You?

You don’t need to be in a relationship to benefit from counselling. Therapy can help you better understand yourself and improve your interactions with others. Here are some challenges we can address:

  • Communication struggles: Do you feel unheard or misunderstood in your conversations?

  • Trust issues: Is it hard to move forward after emotional wounds or betrayals?

  • Emotional detachment: Feeling distant or disconnected from loved ones.

  • Cultural or societal pressures: Balancing cultural or religious values with your personal needs.

  • Family stress: Managing the complexities of family dynamics or upbringing.

Relationship counselling can give you the tools to build self-awareness, strengthen your emotional toolkit, and create fulfilling connections.

What to Expect from Therapy

In our sessions, we’ll explore the patterns and dynamics that might be holding you back. Together, we’ll focus on:

  • Clear Communication: Learn to express your feelings and needs effectively.

  • Healing Past Wounds: Understand how past experiences impact your current relationships.

  • Self-Awareness: Recognize your triggers and develop healthier responses.

  • Deeper Connections: Build tools to create more meaningful bonds with others.

  • Resilience: Handle external pressures like work, family, or cultural expectations with confidence.

Our work will be tailored to your unique goals, empowering you to thrive in your relationships and beyond.
