Kennedy McLean Counselling & Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist
Relationships are complex. We all come with our own ideas, values, beliefs, and past wounds. Part of being in a relationship or marriage means learning to work together, compromise and communicate with your partner. Easier said than done. There are so many ways we can miscommunicate without even realizing it and end up hurting our partner or feeling hurt ourselves. Without understanding how to work through and move past these hurts they build into resentments, putting our relationship at risk. This is where many couples are when they come to therapy. There is underlying resentment or a major betrayal. We work together to move the relationship into a healthier place, where both partners are able to accept responsibility for themselves and their role in the relationship and learn healthier ways of being with one another.

Gibson & Associates: Psychotherapy, Counselling + Consulting
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW
There are many reasons couples seek couples therapy. If you are having issues arise in your relationship, couples counselling is a good avenue to explore these issues, work to improve them, and resolve conflicts. Often couples find themselves stuck in distressing cycles of behaviour that repeat over and over. A couples therapist can help you identify these patterns as well as the underlying driving forces and provide tools and strategies to help you disrupt these patterns together, to shift into more connecting and less distressing ways of interacting with each other.
If you are wondering if you need couples relationship therapy, set up a free of charge consultation with a couples therapist, where you can explore how couples therapy might be beneficial for your relationship.

Philip Starkman
Registered Psychotherapist, MSW, RSW
In my practice, I embrace a supportive and empathetic approach towards relationship and marriage counseling, acknowledging the unique journey each couple undertakes. By weaving together a rich tapestry of holistic strategies and psychotherapeutic tools, including Mindfulness, the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Role-Playing, Emotional Family Therapy (EFT), and Imago Therapy, we collaboratively address the heart of relationship challenges. This integrative approach not only uncovers the roots of conflict and communication breakdowns but also nurtures a deeper connection and understanding between partners. Through these varied techniques, couples learn to navigate disputes, rebuild trust, and enhance emotional intimacy within a secure and caring space. Focusing on individual growth as a cornerstone for a healthy relationship, I guide partners towards self-awareness and mutual respect, empowering them to enrich their shared journey. My role is to facilitate this path of exploration and renewal, equipping couples with the insights and strategies necessary for a loving and resilient partnership.

Victoria Lorient-Faibish
Registered Psychotherapist, MEd, RP, CCC, RPE
My second book Connecting: Rewire Your Relationship-Culture is devoted to all things "relationship". I find that couples become unhappy in their relationships often not because of the big things like infidelity... it is all about the accumulations of little things that over time simply destroy the relationship.
We tackle the "pre-marital" checklist to ensure that their relationship-culture remains healthy. I think this work is essential since, in my experience, so many couples end up in couples’ therapy because they did not do this kind of due diligence early on. Getting real about why you chose this person, what your inner motivations are and what your family-culture influences may be are so important to ensure a successful marriage and relationship-culture.
When one enters the realm of long-term relationships and marriage, it seems that despite good intentions to not be influenced by their family of origin’s dysfunction, the autopilot “marriage personality” seems to crop up.
We work with how to fight fairly, how to communicate when triggered, micro aggressions and the the Gottman "turning away versus turning towards" principles that left unchecked will deteriorate the foundation of the relationship.
We tackle Relationship Rescue 911 when the relationship is in crisis and unpack Gottman's four horseman of destruction of a relationship and the way out of those patterns. (Dr. Gottman named four negative behavior patterns that can predict divorce. He called these destructive patterns “The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.” ,
• Criticism: Passing judgments. Nitpicking. Constantly finding fault in the other person. Using “you” sentences; for example, “You need to go on a diet” or “You dress like a child.” Using the words “always” and “never” in sentences describing your partner; for example, “You always think only about yourself,” “You never do things the right way” or “You never do anything for me.”
• Contempt: Feeling that the other person is inferior to you. Feeling that you are superior to the other person. Having no respect for the other person. Feeling disgusted with the other person; for example, saying, “What’s wrong with you?” “You’re disgusting!” “I can’t believe I’m even with you.”
• Defensiveness: The communication is coming from a perceived feeling of an attack. Feeling like the victim in the dynamics. Feeling as though you have to constantly protect yourself. The communication comes off as angry, corrective, protective; for example, “It’s not my fault that we don’t communicate well.”
• Stonewalling: Completely shutting the other person out. No longer interacting with the other person. Emotionally amputating the other person. Ignoring them. Behaving as though the other person does not exist. Freezing the other person out as a punishment for not doing what you want them to do or behaving the way you want them to behave.
We tackle coping with Conflict and Anger in a Healthy Way through powerful communication techniques including "Initiate and Reflect".

Remember that you fell in love for a reason, and that is reason enough to save your relationship. The Gottman Model is based on over 40 years of scientific research with a 92 percentile success rate. Fact is, that lack of communication can drive a spike between two people wider than any physical distance. This is a safe, empathetic and unbiased environment. The first step is choosing to come to therapy TOGETHER.
