Couples Psychotherapists

Couples and Partners Psychotherapists at The Growth & Wellness Therapy Centre provide support for couples, polycules, and co-parents to work through growing pains, life changes, separations, intimacy issues and more.

Our couples therapists are trained in a variety of modalities to support you and your relationship, and your work together may involve sessions together with your partner(s) and alone with a therapist one-on-one depending on your needs and the approach the therapist takes. Our office also periodically runs groups for couples or partners that you may find helpful in combination with your regular therapy sessions.

Take a look at all of our couples therapists below to get an idea of the modalities they use and the issues they have experience providing support around, and if you need help finding the right fit you can reach out to us at the office and we’ll help find a match!
