Couples and Families

Investing in your most important relationships

Families can be complicated things. They are a web of interconnected relationships that can sometimes be a mix of love, anger, sadness, hope and joy. Because of this, it’s not uncommon for emotional distance or conflict to permeate the lives of our most important relationships. However, the quality of our most treasured relationships has a huge impact on our emotional and physical health and well-being.

The Family Care Centre by Edgar Psychological was established to help you and your loved ones develop better communication strategies and stronger, healthier connections. Committing to improving your relationships will enrich your life.

What is Couples & Family Therapy?

Couples therapy and family therapy are two branches of general psychology that focus on treating all members of a nuclear or extended family in a group setting. Couples and family counseling approaches the family as a whole, emphasizing relationships and communication patterns. At Edgar Psychological, we have a special interest in working with couples and families to form stronger bonds and enjoy deeper, more satisfying relationships. Our therapists are trained in a number of therapeutic models known to be effective in treating problems that commonly arise between couples and among family members.

Benefits of Couples & Family Therapy

Families are complicated. Relationships between family members can, and often do, become strained for any number of reasons. When family dynamics become negative the whole family is affected. If you are experiencing a financial hardship, moving to a new city, or simply struggling to find common ground with your loved ones, you and your spouse or family could benefit from the chance to work with a trained mental health professional.

We can provide your family with a safe environment to facilitate communication and relieve the stress that has driven wedges into your relationships. Some other benefits of couples and family counseling include:

Stronger conflict resolution and communication skills
Deeper and closer connections
