Relationhip Solutions

Most people in relationships aren’t broken—they just never learned the skills.
What looks like disrespect or disconnection is often a sign that early patterns are running the show.

At RLT Marriage Counselling, I don’t diagnose you as the problem. I help you understand your part in the pattern—so you can change it.

Whether you’re struggling with conflict, communication, trust, or stepfamily dynamics, this page connects you to focused guidance for some of the most common issues couples face.

Let’s start where it hurts—and go from there.

This Is Just the Beginning

Relational skill-building isn’t a quick fix—it’s a lifetime practice.
These articles offer a starting point, not a solution.

But the more awareness you bring to your patterns, the more choice you create.
And the more skill you practice, the more connection becomes possible.

This is your time.
