Letter from the trenches,
Happy V-day!

Here we go, couples in the trenches! Mini series 2 starts today and I’m excited to be addressing couples relationships. After all, it’s Valentine’s Day this month, so what better time of year to target that unique relationship in your life. If you have a partner, this series is for you - whether or not you are currently parenting. We’re taking a close look at healthy and problematic communication patterns, how to best prep yourselves for gettin’ hitched (legally or figuratively), how to grow your relationship around having a new baby, and ways to reconstruct your relationship as you mature and change individually and as a pair. Please join me and my guest, Michele Gruenhage (the most amazingly skilled couples therapist who specializes in internationally recognized Gottman therapy) exploring how couples counselling can be helpful for improving couples relationships at every stage of the relationship. 

If you'd like to connect with Michele and learn more about her work with couples, here's how you can reach her: https://bc-counsellors.org/counsellors/michele-gruenhage/

I'd also really recommend you check out these Gottman Institute resources to help strengthen your relationship:

In the trenches alongside you,

Karen
