What is Relational Life Therapy

A Little More Indepth Look at RLT

A No-Blame, No-Nonsense Approach to Transforming Relationships

Relational Life Therapy (RLT) is not about managing symptoms or circling around surface problems.
It’s about getting real, getting honest, and creating lasting change in your relationship.

RLT works by helping couples uncover the patterns, power struggles, and learned behaviors that keep them stuck. These patterns are often built in childhood, shaped by what we saw—or didn’t see—in our parents’ relationships.

Without realizing it, we carry these old strategies into our adult partnerships. They can feel normal, but they quietly sabotage our ability to connect, repair, and thrive.

The Heart of Relational Life Therapy

Relational Life Therapy helps couples:

• Move from blame to accountability
• Build skills for radical honesty and connection
• Repair quickly and deeply after conflict
• Shift from power struggles to relational partnership
• Create fierce intimacy by working with the parts of themselves that resist change

RLT teaches couples how to move beyond reactivity. It is not about sitting in a therapist’s office for years.

It is about learning how to show up as your best self and how to repair when you inevitably fall short.

Why This Work Is Different

I don’t offer general therapy. I don’t use a grab bag of techniques.
Relational Life Therapy is the only method I use because it is the most direct, practical, and effective approach I’ve found for couples who want real change.

This work is focused. It’s fast. And it is not always comfortable.
But it works.

In RLT, I work with the parts of you that do not want to change. These are the parts that learned to protect you in childhood. They helped you survive but may now be working against the closeness you actually want in your relationship.

Relational Life Therapy teaches couples how to face these old strategies, update them, and build something stronger together.

RLT Works Online, Just Like It Works In-Person

I offer RLT exclusively through online sessions.
This work translates beautifully to video because what matters is not the room—it’s the work you are willing to do together.

Couples across Alberta have experienced major shifts in just four to six sessions.
