Couples therapist in Calgary — find your way back to each other.
Stuck in the same argument, drifting apart, or rebuilding after infidelity? Gottman Method marriage and couples therapy in Calgary can help you move forward together.
Many couples come to therapy feeling unheard, unappreciated, or simply distant. Communication, trust, parenting, finances, in-laws, intimacy — small things can grow until they feel impossible to talk about.
Our therapists blend the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) — two of the most trusted, research-supported approaches to couples work. We focus on the patterns underneath the arguments and the connection underneath the patterns.
We also support couples exploring or practicing consensual non-monogamy (CNM) with a non-judgmental, affirming lens — including LGBTQIA+ couples seeking affirming relationship counselling.
Looking for a skills-based group experience? See our Gottman Seven Principles couples workshop (virtual virtually across Alberta, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick). Start with a free 15-minute consultation to explore couples therapy.

Couples therapy usually begins with a free 15-minute consultation, followed by an initial session where both partners share their perspective on what’s working and what feels stuck. Many couples also complete the Gottman Connect Relationship Assessment, which gives your therapist a detailed, research-based picture of your relationship’s strengths and challenges.

From there, sessions focus on the patterns underneath your arguments — not on deciding who’s “right.” Your therapist helps you slow down heated moments, understand what each of you is really needing, and practise new ways of repairing and reconnecting.

Sessions are typically weekly or every other week to start, then spaced out as things improve. Some couples come for a focused set of sessions around a specific challenge; others stay longer to rebuild after a deeper rupture. You set the pace together.
