Easy Therapy That Works For You
Your relationship takes a few hits on a daily basis probably because it is the only shock absorber of your life.
We are here to help you build the champion team with your partner.
Therapy at Mississauga Psychotherapy Centre is
Goal Oriented
Evidence based
Actionable & Practical
Yes, communication IS key. Inadvertently, we cause cosmetic damage to one another while learning how to live together, this is expected. We certainly don’t want partners causing deeper wounds to one another. You can communicate more authentically, meaningfully and intentionally.
Our Couples Therapy works towards reviving romance and intimacy while also giving you skills to take down any internal or external challenge.
Yes, body language plays a key part in our overall communication, but so do verbal, intention discussions. In a relationship we start relying on non verbal communication so much that things get lost in translation and a guessing game is perpetually going on. This leads to partners feeling that they are communicating in a language that their spouse is hard of understanding, never feeling heard or understood. This can be changed with a few tweaks in your patterns of communication and setting the stage right. You don’t have to do it alone, leave it to our experts.
Couples Therapy has value for you if you are looking to address:
Loss of Connection in your Marriage
Over your journey, with several ups and downs, your relationship can also get burnout. Most probably your relationship had to take the hit every time there was a stressor that had to be taken care of either individually by one of you or by the both of you as a team. Once your relationship has taken a back seat in the face of stressors, it is common to feel checked out from your relationship. We know it does not feel good though, this can drastically change your behaviour, feelings, expectations and contribution to your relationship. Take it from us, your marriage deserves another chance because it is worth working towards. Our therapists who specialise in Couples Work understand what you need and are skilled at making things smooth again.
Premarital Counselling
The thought of marriage is exciting yet the most daunting. We surely want our marriage to be as beautiful as our wedding, but guess what, no wedding is memorable without some drama.
Jokes apart, getting married is a significant transition. Sure it means different things in different cultures, but a few commonalities like managing your finances together, depending upon each other and also becoming a partner in each other’s responsibilities; also most importantly, adjusting into each other’s family. In short, you are both bringing your whole entire world into this marriage, is there enough space there for both of your multifaceted lives? Our experts at Mississauga Psychotherapy Centre are able to work with evidence based approaches to make this transition worthwhile.
Separation Counselling
Like any other transition, going through a separation is never easy. That also means we have to navigate new family structures and we literally have to learn how to live on our own, without our partner. Whether you want to learn how to better navigate this challenging phase just to make it bearable enough or if you are really looking to make it as amicable as possible, we are here to understand your unique situation and help you accordingly. This phase might be temporary but the damage you both endure should not be permanent. Do it better with our licensed therapists at Mississauga Psychotherapy Centre who are available to meet you in-person or conveniently from the comfort of your home to work through this.
6 Week Connection Recovery Program for Burntout Couples
No one is as tired as a new parent, that tiredness goes on for a couple of years. Imagine the state of your marriage after being so tired perpetually. It’s like your marriage was put through a rollercoaster and then another, and then one more, without giving you time to recover. It is exciting but takes a huge toll on your ability to get anything else done, but guess what, you have to continue doing all the other things in your life, and all those things require you to not be tired. Simple math, then where is your tired self going to show up? Yes, that is right, in your marriage. Parenthood can be the true test of your relationship. Every test needs preparation!
We run this special program, having lived experience of these challenges, knowing it’s not your partner’s fault but it really is their fault. You do not need to figure it all out alone, become the team of your dreams to tackle this in the best way possible, and make parenthood memorable.
Betrayal Recovery
Relationships are difficult as it is, put Neurodivergence in the mix and it becomes a dare!
But you got this. Being Neurodivergent cannot take away the rewards of being in a relationship, it is just going to make things temporarily difficult. Learn the right ways of communicating and co-existing peacefully while one or both of you are neurodivergent. Yes, it is possible. Ask the therapists at Mississauga Psychotherapy Centre who have helped many couples achieve that level of connection and understanding, they are available to meet you in person or virtually.

Modalities that our therapists are experts in:
Gottman’s Method
The Gottmans can be regarded as the true relationship healers. They have done extensive research on thousands of couples over the years and hence their model of couples therapy is deeply based in neuropsychological and behavioral research. Just like Gottmans, our expert therapist can predict with crazy accuracy what your level of intimacy is by making observations and hearing you talk to your partner. There is one thing common between the Gottmans and us, we have brought back the joy of several relationships and you can restore that for your marriage as well!
Internal Family System
IFS has turned out to be a great tool when you are looking to improve your relationships. You feel like there are several voices in your head because there are, these are all different parts of you. They all have a purpose, a role. The same is true for your partner, they are being governed by several parts of them. With therapy you can make sense of what all they are saying and how to go about doing the best thing.
