If your relationship looks more like an unhealthy or even an abusive one, this is what we can offer you:
A respectful, nonjudgemental environment in which you can learn: Ø Why you keep doing the same old thing Ø How to stop the conflict merry-go-round and respond calmly, using the right words and behaviour to handle conflict situations Ø How to convert the anger of conflict to the energy of collaboration Ø Mutually respectful, clear, and effective communication skills Ø How to change the dynamics in your relationship Ø How to create a loving and satisfying relationship
At the initial interview we decide together the best way for you to develop the skills and understanding that will change your relationship from an unhealthy or abusive one into a mutually loving and supportive one.
We can choose from individual, couple or group sessions, or a combination of these, to provide the best strategy for your relationship needs and your financial situation.
