Therapy When Life Sucks!

Marriage and Relationship Counselling Burlington, Ontario

Are you wanting to just totally give up?

 Feeling frustrated and annoyed?

“Always arguing, can’t bring things up, they get defensive every time, small things get blown up into big huge fights. Never felt this when we first got together but now I feel this way most days now.”

 Angry and confused?

“I can’t believe they did this to me. We talked about other couples we knew who had affairs, never imagined it would happen to us. I am so confused. Was our marriage a sham right from the start?”

 Lonely, sad and hopeless?

“I get dismissed all the time, like my feelings don’t matter. We rarely spend any time together and when we do it’s always with the kids or friends. We haven’t been intimate either for a long time, it’s like we are living as roommates. I don’t know if things will ever change.”

I get it. You probably have even been to therapy before, right? If you are here searching for help yet again, my ask is that you don’t throw in the towel quite yet. Imagine for a second things being different. I know it’s hard, but just imagine. If there is even an ounce of hope inside you, give me a call. Let’s talk. Things can be different.

Hi.  I’m Paul.

As a Relational Therapist, I help couples just like you to repair and rebuild the relationship. We can meet in person in Burlington or online from anywhere in Ontario.

This Is Not Your Typical Couples Therapy.

No Therapy Lingo

Real conversations, no useless “how did that make you feel” questions. We will chat like real people, not checking off boxes.

Straightforward and Direct

Unlike many counselling modalities, our sessions will be direct and to the point. No hiding behind some text book rules of what should or shouldn’t be said. I will help you stay focused.

Take Sides When Needed

Not all arguments are fifty fifty. Sometimes it’s ninety ten. And sometimes it’s all you.

Homework and Accountability

Customized homework just for you to help implement what is discussed in session. There will be accountability on whether the strategies were given a try at home and look at what went well and what didn’t.

Pro-Marriage

Not all couples counsellors are pro-marriage. I am! I help couples understand how they are at, how they got here and where to go from here.

Drastic Changes Quickly

Typical marriage counselling is aimed at improving relationships over a two year period. We do it differently. We will strive to make drastic changes that will quickly impact the relationship.

Imagine For A Moment…

  • being able to turn conflict into connection

  • gain skills that you may not have ever learned from your own upbringing

  • creating a partnership that is satisfying to both of you

  • being able to manage triggers

  • moving from disharmony to harmony successfully each and every time

  • going from “me vs you” to “us vs the problem”
