Family Counselling
Strengthen Your Family Bonds with Emotionally Focused Family Therapy
Are You Struggling to Connect with Your Family?
Family relationships can be complex. You may find yourself feeling disconnected from your loved ones, overwhelmed by constant conflict, or unsure how to support your children through challenging life transitions.
Whether it’s communication barriers, cultural differences, or emotional distance, these issues can make family life feel stressful and isolating.
At Love Heals Counselling and Consulting, I specialize in helping families like yours work through these challenges using Emotionally Focused Family Therapy (EFFT).
My approach helps families reconnect, rebuild trust, and create a deeper understanding of each other’s emotional needs.
Understanding Your Family’s Challenges
Common Family Challenges I Help With
As a BIPOC and queer-identified therapist, I have worked with many diverse families and understand the unique struggles you might face. Here are some of the issues I can help your family overcome:
Communication Breakdown: Struggling to communicate effectively with your children or spouse? EFFT helps family members express their emotions and needs in a way that fosters understanding and empathy.
Coming Out and Identity Issues: If your child is navigating their gender identity or sexuality, I provide a safe and affirming space for you to explore these conversations with love and acceptance.
Cultural Differences: Families where parents are first-generation immigrants and children are 1.5 generation or born in Canada often face generational and cultural gaps. I help bridge these differences, making sure every voice is heard.
Blended Family Challenges: When families come together from previous marriages, new dynamics and emotional complexities can arise. I work to create a unified, supportive family environment.
Supporting Children with Disabilities: Parenting children with ADHD, Autism, or other disabilities can be emotionally demanding. I help parents better understand their child’s emotional needs and create a loving, supportive home environment.
