Hi. I’m John.
I'll help you save your relationship.
Learn to communicate, understand each other, solve your issues, come up with workable agreements, bond, and create a happy and fulfilling life together.
Watch a case study.
Curious about working with me?
CASE STUDY:
This married couple was referred to me after going to counselling where “nothing really progressed”. They were avoiding conversations “like the plague”, and thought their relationship was headed for “divorce, definitely”.
What changed?
We "got control of our life and relationship."
We got to a place where "we may not always agree on the issue, but we can understand each other's feelings, wants, needs, all of that."
We have "meaningful conversations with each other that make us want to talk to each other."
And much more in the 12 minute video.
NOT THERAPY...
We could be a fit if, even if you feel hopeless, you both still wish for this relationship to work, you’ve decided to invest in saving your relationship, and are looking for the right person to help you develop the skills you need.
Communicate
Build empathy, and deeply understand, see, and know each other.
Resolve Issues
Replace arguments with validating, healing, and productive talks.
Agreements & Vision
Create relationship enhancing plans that meet both your needs.
Bond & Connect
Become a bonded, loving team that keeps getting better.
Rooted in Compassionate Communication and Relationship Coaching, I help couples like you learn, practice, and adopt these and other couple skills that are critical to living in harmony. I want you to be quickly become empowered to connect, function like a team, and confidently make your relationship thrive on your own.
Together, we'll come up with a plan to save your relationship and to have a thriving relationship.
Get coached to envision the life you want, create strategies, set goals, and take action to get there.
Get coached to learn the couple skills you need, integrate them, and put them into action.
Get guided as you practice skills, starting easy, so you confidently and quickly build skills together.
You can practice with workbooks and kits, which you can print and work with when not in sessions.
We can also prep for more difficult conversations together, and I can mediate those discussions.
1. In Crisis
Longer sessions to work through things, practice getting out of crisis, and to jumpstart change.
2. Functioning
Hourly private or group sessions with coaching, practicing skills, making agreements and action plans.
3. Thriving
You've got this. Let's meet monthly to keep things on track, and/or meet as needed.
As your relationship gets better, our session plan will typically shift to meet your evolving needs.
My guarantee:
If either of us realizes it’s not the right match after the first paid session or two, I’ll click the refund button, and those sessions will be free.

And, We’ll Have Fun!
What you’re embarking on is something that is usually enjoyable and full of celebrations as you see results! We’ll have a good time.
You get more personalized attention because I focus on just a few couples at a time.
Knowing you better, helps me support you.
We can have longer sessions when we need to.
We can meet more often when needed.
I have flexibility meeting within your schedules.
We can continue meeting once your thriving.
I can work on the nonprofit side of helping you.
I work online, so all sessions are done on video calls. You can book sessions on a schedule, change them weekly, or just book as needed. Whatever serves you best.
The first session is a 30-minute free chat to see if we might be right for each other. Then, you can pre-purchase sessions one at a time, or you can pre-purchase more sessions at a discount.
One-on-one coaching:
First session: Free (30 min.) You can book that now.
One session: $165 CAD
Four sessions: $600 CAD ($150/session)
Twelve sessions: $1,600 CAD ($133/session)
If one-on-one coaching is not accessible, I will also soon offer discounted group coaching with groups of 7-10 couples, and weekly by-donation workshops through my nonprofit.
No. I don’t like it when I need to commit to paying someone for months. Instead, I will support you as needed. If you find the first two sessions valuable, you can buy and book more, and you can stop booking without notice.
I only want you to give me money because you are getting the value and change you want, you want to work with me, and you want to show your appreciation.
The first session is 30 minutes for free. The next two sessions have a full money-back guarantee. If either of us thinks it’s not quite a fit after one or both of those sessions, all your money is refunded.
After those sessions, you can pre-pay for more sessions. If you need or want the money back for any reason, I’ll refund the unused portion. (So, if you pre-pay for 12 sessions, use 3, and want your money back, I’ll refund the 9 unused sessions.)
