Relationship Counselling

Strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and deepen connection.

When Relationships Feel Stuck

Every relationship faces challenges, but sometimes patterns of conflict, distance, or mistrust can feel overwhelming. You might notice:

​

  • Repeating the same arguments without resolution

  • Struggling to communicate your needs or feel heard

  • Feeling distant, disconnected, or unsure how to repair closeness

  • Carrying the weight of stress, addiction, or ADHD into your relationship

  • Wondering if you can move forward together

​

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Relationships are complex, and seeking support is a sign of commitment to growth, for yourself and for your connection.

How Relationship Counselling Can Help

Counselling provides a safe space to explore challenges, understand underlying patterns, and practice new ways of relating. In therapy, you and your partner can:

​

  • Improve communication and listening skills

  • Rebuild trust after conflict, stress, or betrayal

  • Understand how trauma, ADHD, or addiction may impact your relationship

  • Learn strategies for setting boundaries and respecting each other’s needs

  • Strengthen emotional and physical intimacy

Our Approach to Relationship Counselling

At OP Counselling, we believe relationships thrive when both partners feel safe and understood. Our therapists take a trauma-informed and collaborative approach, drawing on evidence-based practices such as:

​

  • Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT): to deepen emotional connection and repair bonds

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): to shift unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns

  • Mindfulness strategies: to slow down reactivity and foster presence with one another

​

Whether you’re seeking support for everyday communication, navigating the effects of ADHD or addiction, or working through long-standing wounds, we’ll meet you where you are.

What to Expect in Relationship Counselling

  • Free 15-Minute Consultation: A chance to share your goals and see if counselling feels like the right fit.

  • First Sessions: Together, we’ll explore your relationship patterns, strengths, and the challenges you want to address.

  • Ongoing Work: With guidance, you’ll practice new skills and create more secure, supportive connection.

Relationships take work, but you don’t have to do it alone. With support, it’s possible to communicate more clearly, reconnect with one another, and move forward together.
