A Note from Tracy

Hi, I’m Tracy,

If you’re reading this, there’s a good chance you’ve already tried — talking it through, giving each other space, promising to “do better,” or avoiding certain topics just to keep the peace.

And yet the same thing keeps happening.

In my work with couples, I often see two people who still care deeply, but they’ve become stuck in a cycle that leaves both feeling unheard, alone, or on edge. Over time, even small moments can start to feel loaded.

Through proven techniques in Couples Therapy, I’ve seen couples transform their relationships by understanding underlying issues and rebuild connection.

Let’s take the first step – book a session and we will start by understanding what’s been happening and what you both need .

Is Couples Therapy Right for us?

Couples Therapy can help if you’re dealing with:

Recurring conflict and unresolved issues
Trust has been damaged after an affair, secrecy, or broken promises
One or both of you is avoiding the hard conversations
Distance, shutdown, or “walking on eggshells”
Feeling more like co-parents or housemates
Intimacy feels tense, pressured, awkward, or has disappeared.
Stressors like parenting, grief, health, or major life transitions

Healing after an Affair

An affair can leave both partners feeling overwhelmed — with questions, hurt, anger, shame, or numbness.

In couples therapy, we slow things down and create safer conversations so you can understand what’s happened, what each of you needs, and what repair could look like.

This isn’t about taking sides. It’s about helping you rebuild trust step-by-step, at a pace that feels emotionally safe.

Ready to Transform Your Relationship

Choose a time and date that suits you. We recommend couples book a 90-minute session to start to ensure everyone has time to be heard.

Make an Appointment

Choose a time and date that suits you. Couples sessions are available Monday – Saturday. It is recommended to book 90-minutes for the first session.

Getting Started

We’ll clarify what’s bringing you in and identify the pattern that keeps taking over. Focus shifts from “who’s wrong” to “what’s happening between us.”

Rebuild Connection

We work step-by-step to create safer conversations, strengthen emotional security, and build new ways of responding to each other that last .

Meet our Riggs and Momo...

Meet Riggs and Momo, our resident therapy cats who call the The Beach Haven home (part time). On days you visit in person, they may join your session if you’d like the company.

Research consistently shows that the presence of an animal can help lower anxiety, ease emotional defences, and create a sense of warmth and safety that is difficult to put into words. For many people, having a cat nearby can make it a little easier to breathe, to settle, and to open up.

If you’d prefer no cats in your session — whether due to allergies, a fear of cats, or simply personal preference — please let me know in your intake form. The room will be thoroughly prepared before you arrive, and no further explanation is needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

About Couples Therapy

What if one partner is more motivated to attend therapy?

That’s common. We can work with different levels of readiness and help both partners feel safe and involved in the process.

Is couples therapy only for relationships in crisis?

Not at all. Many couples come when they notice growing distance, recurring conflict, or difficulty repairing after arguments. Early support can prevent deeper disconnection.

Will therapy focus on who is right or wrong?

This is a common concern for those coming to therapy. We do not take sides or assign blame.

Our focus is on what’s happening between you, the pattern that keeps repeating. We support both parties and help the relationship become safer and more connected.

How long does couples therapy take?

Every couple is different. EFT Couples Therapy typically involves 12 – 20 sessions, focusing on identifying and reshaping negative interaction patterns and unmet needs.

The pace of therapy will be based on you. We work at a pace that feels safe and comfortable for you!

It is recommended to start by booking 6 sessions to allow us time to understand what is happening in the relationship and what sits below the conflict.

Can couples therapy help after infidelity?

Yes. Many couples come to therapy after an affair because they want a calm, guided way to talk about what happened and what happens next.

Our Couples Therapy, based on the gold-standard EFT model, is designed to support trust repair and emotional reconnection — without blame, and in a way that allows for emotional safety of both parties
