Couples and Marriage Counselling in Vancouver, North and West Vancouver

Work privately with me in relationship counselling sessions to help you and your partner learn and practice the key essentials to effectively navigate the twists and turns of your relationship. Whether you're facing communication breakdowns, dealing with the aftermath of infidelity, or wanting to strengthen your connection, the right support matters, and experience makes all the difference.

For over 30 years, I’ve devoted my practice, passion, and focus to working exclusively with intimate couples. After living and practicing for over fifteen years in Vancouver, West Vancouver and North Vancouver, I now live on Vancouver island and offer sessions virtually, while still receiving the same level of structure, guidance, and therapeutic depth as in-person sessions. Learn more about how online therapy works.

As an M.A., Registered Clinical Counsellor & Therapist, I am a Certified Relationship Specialist with the American Psychotherapy Association. I am a sought-after speaker and have had many media appearances including Global, CityTV, and 95.3 The Beat to offer his expert relationship advice. See my media videos.

Understanding the Need for Couples Counselling

Relationships can be a source of profound joy, but they can also become a source of stress, conflict, and disconnection. Many couples find themselves stuck in what I call the Negative Reciprocal Cycle, a looping pattern where each partner fights to be right, yet neither feels seen or understood. Arguments escalate, nothing resolves, and both partners walk away more alone than before.

If you’re experiencing this (communication breakdowns, emotional distance, recurring conflict, or the pain of betrayal) you’re not alone. These patterns are common, but they are also highly treatable.

My Approach to Couples Therapy

Every couple is unique, so our work is tailored to your specific needs. Using the same evidence-based approach I use in my in-person practice, I draw from:

• Gottman Method
• Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
• Somatic Experiencing (SE)
• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
• Attachment Theory
• Family Systems

"He was able to teach us skills that allow for stronger and more productive communication which ultimately results in real connection"
