What is Complex Relationship Support?

We provide 5 sessions which are 45 minutes to 1.5 hours in length and cost between $50-$150 with a sliding scale and payment option available. These sessions are not for couples, but for the individual. I can work with each person involved in the relationship, however this will be done separately on an individual level. I do offer couples and family counselling if you’d like to work together. Please check out my counselling services page for more information.

The sessions are each focused on exploring relationships that may include domestic violence, family violence, relational abusive behaviours, co-dependancy, relationship addiction and traumas that deeply impact intimate relationships. we also focus on healing after a challenging relationship. Each session will look at:

  • Safety planning

  • Emotional support

  • Educational components

  • Somatic practices that support safety in the body and coming back into the body

  • Practical support

  • Referral pathways, including exploring support networks

We will create a plan for where you are at, whether you are still in the relationship, planning on leaving, or wanting to stay and work on the relationship. Our support services are for women, children, LGBTIQA+ folks and men who are experiencing relationships which may include abusive behaviours, and would like therapeutic support. Each session is uniquely tailored to your current situation and requirements. Please check out the session details below to ensure this suits you.

I will caveat that I will need to do a consultation session for men and those who identify as male who identify as using violence. At times I feel it is more helpful for men to work with other men when using violent or abusive behaviours. Please contact me for more information and to discuss further if you are interested in this work.

**Please note we do not provide crisis and emergency supports. This means we are not first responders, we look at the therapeutic work that can support you while going through or after leaving a challenging or abusive relationship, however we are not the support for those who are in immediate danger or risk. We can provide tools that help you move through the challenges that may arise, but are unable to provide things such as emergency housing, finances, legal services or custody support.. Although we may discuss these topics, it is more on a general level. Please call your nearest Domestic Violence crisis service, the police or safe person.

“There are two forms of courage in this world. One demands that we jump into action with our armour on. Th other demands that we strip ourselves bare-naked and surrender. Bravery is a curious thing. ”

What each session looks like

I offer 5 sessions that allow a deep exploration into the healing process and provide support through challenging relationships. These sessions come as a package, and will be tailored to you. You can pay for the full program up front for $700. If you are interested in doing one of these sessions individually please contact me for a consult to discuss.

If attending online you need to have a safe quiet location to be able to complete each session. For session 4, you may like to have a place you can lie down and be comfortable. If this is not an option, we can complete this session sitting.

Each session is outlined below. If you have any questions please reach out, or book a 15 minute free consultation to ask any question and make sure this service is right for you.

  • This session we complete the intake, gather details as you share your story, and create a safety plan. Safety planning will happen throughout each session. This session will take 45 minutes and is costs $100.

  • Trauma and Abuse Education session. We will discuss how trauma works, and focus on the Unconscious Self and our internal patterns. This session takes 60 minutes and is charged at $150.

  • This session is all about the nervous system, how it works, and how we can support our systems to come back into stasis, so we may start to feel a sense of wellbeing and safety in our own bodies again. This session will take 60 minutes and is charged at $150.

  • This session is dedicated to a holistic counselling session that encompasses 3 main areas of work. The talk component, a guided breathwork and inner child imagination journey.
