How Couples Counselling Ontario Works

Initial Assessment

The process begins with an initial assessment, during which the therapist evaluates the relationship’s current state and identifies key issues. This assessment helps create a tailored therapy plan that addresses the couple’s unique needs.

Therapeutic Techniques

Therapists use a variety of techniques during sessions, including:

  • Cognitive-behavioural Therapy (CBT): Focuses on changing negative thought patterns and behaviours.
  • Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): Aims to strengthen the emotional bond between partners.
  • Solution-Focused Therapy: Concentrates on finding practical solutions to specific problems.
  • The Gottman Method: Based on extensive research, this method emphasizes building a sound relationship house through enhancing friendship, managing conflict, and creating shared meaning.

Regular Sessions

Couples typically attend regular therapy sessions, which can be weekly or monthly, depending on their needs. These sessions provide a consistent opportunity for couples to work on their relationships with professional guidance.
