Couples Counselling Calgary Robert Hammel, Counselling & Psychological Services Registered Provisional Psychologist Email: #202 – 4603 Varsity Drive NW , Calgary T3A2V7 I employ the well researched and proven approach from the Gottman Method to help couples learn about and develop new ways to appreciate and develop greater fondness for each other. I help clients realize that truly the core of an intimate relationship is really friendship, and not necessarily the all encompassing passion and always being “in love” that popular media/culture have led us to believe that marriage should always be about. Marriages naturally wax and wane, and aren’t always perfect; sometimes people fight and disagree and that doesn’t always have to end in separation or divorce. There are no perfect marriages — just ones that are good enough to make us feel happy and content Couples Therapist Calgary Verlyne Nzojibwami, M.Sc. Psychologist / Psychologue Email: 451 Marsh Road NE, Calgary T2E 5B2 Couples Counselling Sometimes a couple can get stuck in circular repetitive arguments that never seem to go anywhere. Before you know it, you are arguing about everything and anything. Such an environment creates constant frustration even though there might still be love and care for the other person. In my work with couples I focus on: * Opening the channels of communication * Identifying and replacing the elements that lead to circular repetitive arguments * Helping the couple create genuine ways to connect Some of my work with couples includes: * How to build trust in a relationship – Recovering from a deep hurt * Ways to create healthy individuality while st…. Couples Counselling Calgary Brenda Duncan, MSW RSW Clinical Social Worker Email: 132 – 17th Avenue NW, Calgary T2M 0M6 Working with relationships, I respect each person’s perspective and encourage both of you in the process of discovering how you can be more effective as partners in building a better life together. However painful your conflict or disconnection may be right now, there is room to develop interest and skills to enhance the relationship and work together to deal with challenges you face. How we work together depends on your goals and unique circumstances. We will develop a process of counselling which recognizes and values each of you and supports the building of a central, meaningful partnership. Couples Therapist Calgary Kerry Jespersen, MA Clinical Counsellor Email: Suite 726, 10 Discovery Ridge Hill SW, Calgary T3H 5X2 My approach to couple counselling relies on two streams. One stream is helping clients develop the necessary relationship and communication skills. The second, and more important stream, is to help clients understand the various parts of themselves that get triggered in the relationship. Our partners behaviour and words can trigger parts within us that overwhelm us, take us over and highjack us, and make us react in an unproductive way. I do individual work with each person in the relationship to help them understand the various parts that are highjacking them. I teach that each person is the primary caretaker of their own parts, and the partner can only be a secondary caretaker. Couples Counselling Calgary Velma Noble, BA, MA, CCC, PAg Certified Clinical Counsellor (CCC) Email: Location of Therapist: Calgary, AB, T3E 5R8 Precious few of us are naturally equipped with adequate relationship skills. All too often we find ourselves adrift in unhappy love relationships where unresolved issues and resentments have built seemingly impenetrable walls between partners. My model of choice for couples is relational therapy. I teach the partners how to become a safe, healing and loving presence for each other, building skills that allow the partners to reconnect through empathy and compassion (and let go of contempt and anger). It advocates self-leadership (i.e. each partner takes responsibility for his/her own feelings and to understand how each partner contributes to the conflict). My concept of relational therapy end…. Couples Therapist Calgary Jennifer Mansell, MSW, RSW Registered Social Worker Email: 1904 – B 20th Ave NW, Calgary T2M 1H5 At some point most couples experience a feeling of a disconnection from their partner. Couples may seek therapy at any stage and for any number of reasons including anger, lack of intimacy or general difficulty in the relationship. You don’t need to be in a ‘bad marriage’ to be in couples therapy. Many people with strong partnerships choose this path to enhance their relationships. I can help you * Enhance your ability to communicate * Strengthen your commitment * Learn to validate each others’ opinions, feelings and desires * Foster a deeper sense of respect and friendship * Reconnect with common values and a shared vision * Confront fears about intimacy Couples Counselling Calgary Lynne Goertzen, BJ, MA Registered Psychologist Email: Suite 200, 2003 – 14 Street N.W., Calgary T2M 3N4 I work with couples (married, common-law, or dating, heterosexual or same-sex) to enhance relationships and build connection. I have training in, and utilize, a wide range of interventions and strategies from emotion-focused therapy, Gottman’s couples therapy, CBT, among others. I can help you improve the quality of your relationship, consider alternative perspectives, communicate your requests and your caring to your partner, learn and practice effective problem-solving, and co-construct your future. In our work together, I will also ask you to practice skills at home and perhaps do some reading as the work and benefits of counselling occur largely between, rather than inside, sessions. Couples Therapist Calgary Cal H. Henze, MA Psychology, MA Counseling Registered Christian Counselor Email: Braeside Dr. S.W., Calgary T2W 2V5 You’ve read all of the books, tried all the formulas and gone to all the seminars… Why isn’t it working? It’s simple, no one gave you the tools. No one started at the heart – at the very core where the fundamental skills of erasing judgment, creating radical transparency, building complete oneness and the power of skills in intimate self-giving make all the difference. So, if you are done with Band-Aids and sick of always returning to therapy for a fix, then come and experience the raw relational power that comes from owning the tools to take your own relationship in hand – and make it soar!!! Couples Counselling Calgary Murray Molohon, M.A. Registered Psychologist Registered Psychologist: Alberta Counselling Services Email: 4,4803-Centre Street N., Calgary T2E 2Z6 Couple therapy is an area of focus that helps couples to learn to comminicate better. Often there are a variety of communication errors that are not understood and are not know how to change in relationships. Learning to foster a supportive relationship is also a major area of focus. Often if couples feel supported and have some better communication skills they can work out a variety of difficulties. Often issues occur that are difficult to change and intolerable. Learning the root issues of these difficulties and what leads to real change often leads to couples supporting each other with difficulties they previously fought about or that led to distance in the relationship. Couples Therapist Calgary Charles Coleman, MA Registered Psychologist Email: Suite 405, 609 14th Street NW, Calgary T2N 2A1 Every relationship has its challenges.
