When couples seek therapy
Couples often come when conversations repeatedly end in conflict, silence or misunderstanding. Others seek support during parenthood, fertility treatment, migration, a loss of trust or a possible separation. You do not need to wait until the relationship is in crisis.
Distance and intimacy
Emotional disconnection, changes in sexuality, loneliness within the relationship or loss of trust.
Parenthood and family life
Pressure following the arrival of a child, differences in parenting, infertility or changes in family roles.
Separation and decisions
Clarifying whether to remain together, preparing a respectful separation or reorganising family relationships.
What happens in a session?
Both partners are invited to describe the relationship from their point of view. The work is not about deciding who is right. It helps identify the cycle that keeps the couple stuck, make room for each person’s experience and develop more workable ways of speaking and responding.
A bilingual and bicultural perspective
Sessions can take place entirely in French or English, or move between both languages when partners have different first languages. Particular attention can be given to migration, cultural differences and the pressures experienced by expatriate couples.
