Couples Therapy

Virtual & In-Person Somatic, Trauma-Informed Counselling in Comox Valley, BC

Reconnect and Grow Together

You’ve tried talking it out, attending sessions, and doing the exercises. Maybe things improved temporarily, but the patterns still return. You’re both committed, but something still feels off.

Couples therapy at B-rooted is about more than communication strategies or problem-solving. We work with your bodies, your sensations, and the subtle ways stress and disconnection show up between you. This approach helps you feel steadier with each other, grounded in your connection, and supported in the changes you want to create.

This is therapy for couples who are ready to move past surface-level fixes and truly understand, feel, and respond to each other in a deeper way.

When the Connection Feels Stretched:

Frequent arguments, repeated misunderstandings, or unresolved tension

Feeling disconnected, lonely, or “off” even when you’re together

Communication that escalates quickly or shuts down entirely

Patterns of blame, withdrawal, or people-pleasing

Difficulty trusting, opening up, or being vulnerable

Unspoken stress, anxiety, or past wounds affecting the relationship

A desire to feel close again, but not knowing how to get there

Couples Therapy

What Becomes Possible

Our couples therapy is grounded in somatic, trauma-informed care. We explore not just what you say to each other, but how your bodies respond to tension, stress, and disconnection. By noticing the physical sensations, the holding patterns, and the nervous system responses, we help your connection shift from reactive to responsive.

This work is collaborative, practical, and deeply respectful of both partners. It’s not about blame or forcing change. It’s about creating a safer, steadier, and more alive relationship.

Greater Nervous System Regulation Together

When tension builds between partners, it often shows up physically before it shows up in words. You may notice racing hearts, tight shoulders, or that sinking feeling in your stomach during conflict. In couples therapy at B-rooted, we guide you to notice these signals, calm your nervous systems, and respond instead of react.

Clearer, Calmer Communication

It’s easy for conversations to spiral into blame, defensiveness, or misunderstanding. By tuning into your bodily responses and practicing grounded presence, you can slow down the tension and speak from a place of clarity. This helps both partners feel heard, understood, and able to express needs without escalating conflict.

More Safety and Trust

Feeling safe with someone goes beyond words—it’s felt in your body. Couples therapy helps you both cultivate safety in the small, subtle ways you interact: eye contact, breathing together, or responding to tension without shutting down. As your nervous systems regulate together, trust deepens and emotional availability becomes more natural, not forced.

Deeper Intimacy and Connection

Intimacy is not just about physical closenes. It’s about being truly present with one another. Through somatic practices, you can reconnect to subtle cues, shared rhythms, and emotional attunement. These practices help you both feel seen, valued, and connected beyond the surface, reigniting closeness in everyday moments.

A Relationship That Feels Lived, Not Just Managed

When you move past patterns of doing, fixing, or enduring, your relationship can feel alive again. You’ll notice more spontaneous laughter, gentle touches, shared curiosity, and the kind of connection that carries you both through challenges. Therapy supports you in creating a relationship that isn’t just surviving, but thriving, vibrant, and grounded in both of your realities.
