Our Approach

01

We ask open-ended questions to understand you as a couple—your strengths, challenges, and goals—and create a plan to bridge gaps and strengthen your connection.

Discovering Your Story

We unpack patterns that cause conflict or distance, highlight blind spots, and guide you on healthier ways to respond and communicate.

Understanding What Keeps You Stuck

02

Using approaches like the Gottman Method, EFT principles, and communication coaching, we teach you practical tools to stop fights from spiralling, express needs effectively, and repair after disagreements.

Skill-Building, Repair, and Reconnection

You’ll practice new communication and repair strategies between sessions so they become second nature, making it easier to navigate challenges and stay connected in your day-to-day life.

What is relationship anxiety?

Relationship Counselling FAQs

Do I need a diagnosis?

No. Relationship anxiety counselling is for anyone experiencing worry, fear, or patterns that interfere with connection and confidence.

The A’s to Your Q’s

EMDR helps process past trauma or experiences that trigger anxiety, reduces emotional reactivity, and helps you respond more calmly in your relationships.

How is EMDR used for relationship anxiety?

How long are sessions, and where can I attend?

Sessions are typically 50 minutes; 75-minute sessions are recommended for EMDR. Attend virtually or in-person at any Vancouver location.

Should I come individually or with my partner?

Yes, we offer premarital counselling. We’re big believers in early intervention, as it has the highest success rate in couples therapy. Our services are tailored to your relationship stage and unique goals.

Relationship anxiety involves worry, overthinking, or fear about your partner or relationship. It may show up as jealousy, need for reassurance, or fear of abandonment and can stem from past trauma or repeated patterns.

It depends on your goals. Some clients feel progress in a few sessions, while deeper change may take several months.
