I am thrilled to report that Family-Therapy has been nominated as Kanata's 2011 People’s Choice Business for the Health & Wellness Business of the Year. How exciting! Here at Family-Therapy we work hard to provide quality counselling services to our clients.

As a therapist, I am passionate about providing compassionate counselling services to the residents of Kanata. I truly believe there is a need for all inclusive therapy and counselling services here in Kanata. Whether you are a child, teenager, young or mature adult single, couple or a family, there are times when we need a place to be heard, listened to, and understood. I believe that Family-Therapy can provide you with a safe environment to explore your inner world and achieve your dreams. I believe you can create the positive loving relationship you want with your partner, your family, your children, and with yourself.

Most of us look forward to summertime and vacations with our children and loved ones. Unfortunately all of that time off from work may be the prequel to spending time with a divorce lawyer. Most people would be surprised to hear that summer vacation can lead to summer divorce. Traditionally, the biggest number of break-ups as couples fight over Christmas occurs in January. Couples therapists and divorce lawyers warn that separations and divorces tend to raise over the summer moths and peak in September.

While we all crave the summer months, warm weather and time off after our long winters, summer vacation can be disastrous to couples. If your relationship has been strained throughout the winter, spending more time with your spouse can unfortunately inflame an already difficult situation. Sometimes people use work as a distraction from the trouble that is brewing in their relationships. Now instead of seeing your spouse for a few hours each night summer vacation can mean weeks of  one on one time with someone you fight with or you no longer know how to talk to.

If things have just not been working out in your love life, time off allows you the time for self reflection, the realization that your relationship is failing.  Couples with young children and young adults are more at risk to divorce. Yong children shift the focus in a relationship from each other to the children. While having young adults move out of the home leave parents realizing the no longer have anything in common with their spouse.

Couples counseling with a trained therapist can help alleviate the stress from your relationships. The goal of couples counselling is to help both partners to succeed, where in the past, or without therapy and counselling, the relationship may seem doomed. Counselling is non-judgmental and respectful of both parties. The therapist creates a safe environment to explore the challenges and difficulties both couples are experiencing in a non blaming environment.  The couple brings to therapy only a commitment to give counselling a chance.  If you are experiencing marital difficulties talk to a trained counsellor today. Counselling can help bring peace and love back into your relationship.
