Marriage Counselling introduction

We offer a safe and supportive environment

At Guiding Light Psychology, we offer Marriage Counseling to couples seeking a safe and supportive environment to work through a range of issues arising in their relationship. Our experienced therapists are trained to help couples address common issues such as communication difficulties, lack of intimacy or emotional connection, disagreements about finances or parenting, infidelity, and differences in values or life goals.

We understand that good conflict management skills are not enough to make a strong relationship, and we are dedicated to helping couples understand and connect with each other in meaningful ways. Our therapists provide tools to improve communication and understanding, build empathy and trust, and strengthen the bond between partners.

Active listening and empathy

We promote active listening, empathy and validation

Our Marriage Counselling sessions promote active listening, empathy, and validation to help partners better understand and support each other’s emotional needs. We help couples identify their emotional triggers and understand how they impact their relationship, and provide tools to communicate their needs and desires effectively.

For couples who have experienced a breach of trust or infidelity, our therapists provide a safe space to express their emotions and work through the aftermath of the infidelity. We help couples develop a plan to move forward, address underlying issues that may have led to infidelity, and rebuild trust and intimacy through increasing emotional connection, improving communication, and developing healthy boundaries.
