Families and couples
Living with a partner or within a family often brings up challenges. If you're experiencing conflict and/or distancing and would like to reduce stress and find more harmony, exploring your situation in counselling can be helpful. LGBTQ/queer families and couples welcome. I often see individuals who are experiencing problems with a family member; it is sometimes surprising how much therapy can help even if the other person is not participating in the session.
