Therapy In Stratford
Stratford's Specialized Couples Therapy
When a relationship feels strained, the impact is felt in every part of life.
Stratford is a city with a strong sense of culture, community, and history. Known worldwide for the Stratford Festival, its thriving arts scene, charming downtown, and riverside parks make it a vibrant and inviting place to live.
At the same time, the slower pace and close-knit nature of Stratford can add unique pressures to relationships. At Couples Therapy Centre, we support Stratford couples in working through challenges so they can rediscover connection, trust, and intimacy.
Why Stratford Couples Benefit from Therapy
-
Small-City Dynamics – Living in a smaller city means community ties are strong, but privacy can feel limited. Counselling offers a safe, confidential space.
-
Lifestyle Balance – Many couples juggle work, commuting, family life, and personal responsibilities. Balancing it all can create distance in a relationship.
-
Artistic & Cultural Influence – Stratford’s rich arts community can be a source of inspiration, but also stress if career demands or lifestyles clash.
-
Diverse Community – Stratford welcomes residents and newcomers from many backgrounds. Our therapists provide culturally competent support that respects your values.
-
Proximity to Larger Centres – Many Stratford residents travel for work or connection to bigger cities, which can strain schedules and relationships.

Couples Therapy
Our therapists are relationship specialists. We work with couples to help you and your partner develop the skills necessary to overcome your relationship difficulties. We will help you find the root causes of your relationship issues, uncover and express painful emotions, and provide support and guidance to help resolve them.
Individual Therapy
Individual counselling is an opportunity to meet one-on-one with one of our therapists to reflect on past experiences, to look at current behaviors and develop a plan to meet future goals. Our therapists focus on relationships as well as symptoms and difficult behaviors related to concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, anger management, life transitions, and self esteem.
Family Therapy
We offer counselling to family members so they can feel more connected to one another, and are able to engage in healthier family discussions. The family therapist can help each member share their feelings and concerns safely so that individual relationships within the family can begin to heal. The family emerges from family therapy having learned skills that foster secure, happy, and loving relationships.
Teen Therapy
Our experienced and fully trained therapists are pleased to offer professional support for teens to help them flourish. At Couples Therapy Centre, we work with the teen to help them think through and process the problems that they are experiencing, at a rate that they are comfortable with. Therapy gives them time to explore their thoughts and feelings and helps them better understand their situation. It can help them cope with their emotions and enable them to make positive choices in their lives.
