Couples & Family Counselling in
Burnaby, British Columbia

Common Concerns that might prompt you to seek Couples or Family Counselling include:

  • Communication Challenges

  • Commitment & Marriage

  • Infidelity

  • Blended Families

  • Improving the Health and Wellness of the Relationship or Family

  • Child Protection Concerns

Approaches utilized in my practice:

When working with couples and families, I integrate a blend of Systemic Family Therapy, Filial Therapy (FT), Gottman Couples Therapy, and Emotion-Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT) to address relational issues, improve communication, and deepen emotional connections. Gottman Couples Therapy provides couples with tools to strengthen friendship, manage conflict, and build a resilient partnership, grounded in evidence-based strategies. Emotion-Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT) helps partners explore and express vulnerable emotions, rebuild trust, and develop stronger emotional bonds. For families, Systemic Family Therapy works to identify and shift negative interaction patterns, while Filial Therapy (FT) empowers parents to be more attuned to their children’s emotional needs. Together, these approaches promote healthier family dynamics, improved relationships, and more effective communication within the family unit.
