Are you in a newer relationship and doubting which direction things are going in? Have you and your partner been facing increased levels of conflict that you are finding more challenging to resolve ? Are you and your partner wondering how to restore things to where they once were? Are you and your partner up against a looming threat of separation and either don't want to give up on the relationship or want to separate in respectful ways that can benefit everyone ?
This could mean addressing specific difficulties, (communication, parenting, etc.), exploring underlying relationship patterns, or expressing emotions, I utilize both traditional approaches, (e.g. CBT,) and "leading-edge" approaches, (Narrative, BSFT, EFCT, etc.) to put clients in the driver's seat. My strength is my ability to individualize therapy to match unique needs of individuals/couples.
Counselling Associates has been serving people in the Scarborough, York (e.g. Markham ) and Durham regions, (e.g. Pickering ) since 2006. I have recently expanded my practice to include other professionals, (e.g. Ms. Roma Beckles MSW), adding to Counselling Associates' diversity in addressing a range of client's therapeutic needs.
