Therapy When Life Sucks!
Marriage and Relationship Counselling
in Burlington and Virtually Across Ontario
I help couples stop fighting, communicate better and rebuild trust so that they can have less tension, feel heard and experience love again.
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 an Advanced 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.
How I Can Help You
I will help you unpack your stuff. Sometimes there is so much going on, I will help you sort things out.
I will help both of you stay focused on the purpose of counselling. We will track the progress with frequent check-ins.
I will help both of you provide a safe space for each other to talk. Sometimes being at home is too chaotic, you need a space to just be you.
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 talk with your husband and feel like he is actually listening to you.
Figuring out a way to have her trust you again.
Getting along so well that you actually start enjoying spending time together, again.
