Couples

Welcoming All Couples!

Whether you are recently together or long-time partners, same-sex or hetero, young or old, married, common-law, or living in separate homes — All couples face challenges in their journeys together. Whatever difficulty you are currently facing, an outside perspective can be very helpful for finding the way forward!

Helping your relationship thrive

Your relationship can provide a wonderful environment for both of you to grow. That said, all of us have hurts that can get in the way of our honest and open interactions.

My goal is to move the two of you to greater security with each other, help you to be allies to one another and allow you to experience both independence from and reliance on your partner.

Stuck at a crossroads?

Not sure whether your relationship should continue? Feeling lost and confused? I can help you recognize the positives from your past and clarify your path toward a renewed commitment or toward separate lives. My goal is guide you both to communicate honestly and authentically so that you can negotiate important matters for the future.

Two-on-Two Counselling – a unique option*

You also have the option of having 2-on-2 Couple Counselling sessions with Steven Fick and me. Steve has been a Relationship Coach for 15 years, and has assisted in my counselling practice for the past 9 years.

We are a real couple. Our relationship has strengthened as we have shared joys and difficulties over our 45-year marriage. We bring two perspectives to your strengths and challenges. By listening non-judgmentally and with empathy and respect, we can help you grow past unproductive patterns in your relationship.

* Steve Fick has limited availability. If you are interested in 2-on-2 Couple Counselling, you will meet with Signy Fridriksson until he is able to join us.
