Specializing in relationship issues, Quyn works with individuals who experience one or more of the following concerns in their current relationship/marriage:

• Breakup, divorce or separation


• Infidelity/betrayal


• Abuse - emotional, physical, sexual and verbal


• Maladaptive patterns of communication


• Sexual orientation and gender identity


• Difficulties in commitment


• Insecurity and jealousy


• Trust issues


• Poor boundary setting


• Lack of emotional responsiveness or emotional availability

As a therapist, Quyn can help you gain a deeper understanding and insight of how your patterns, thoughts and behaviours in relationships have been developed in response to your difficult and challenging circumstances in the past. Some of these patterns may have helped you cope with your past situations. Yet they may have become the source of current isolation and disconnections that you often experience in your current relationship or marriage. Once you recognize these patterns, Quyn can guide you in exploring ways in which you can begin to break free from these unhelpful patterns and develop new and empowering ones. As a result, you will start to feel confident about who you are, gain a solid and secure sense of self, and proud and appreciative of what you have to offer to others, all of which are important steps in achieving a fulfilling relationship or marriage.
