Supporting Women and Couples Through Life’s Big Transitions

Life is full of change — some expected, some not. And while change can bring growth, it can also bring stress, anxiety, and strain on relationships. At Clairville Therapy Group, we support women and couples navigating some of life’s biggest transitions, from starting a family to managing relationship challenges, career shifts, or personal growth.

Mental Health & Relationships: A Two-Way Street

The health of our intimate relationships and our mental wellbeing are deeply connected. When we’re stressed or overwhelmed, it often shows up in how we communicate with our partner or how we feel in our relationship. Likewise, if our partnership is struggling, our mood, self-esteem, and sense of security can suffer.

We help couples explore the root of their disconnection — whether it’s communication issues, unresolved conflicts, parenting stress, or emotional distance — and build healthier patterns based on trust, emotional safety, and collaboration.

Women’s Mental Health: Unique Challenges, Personalized Support

Women often face unique mental health stressors that deserve focused care and understanding. These include:

  • Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (before or after birth)

  • Fertility struggles and pregnancy loss

  • The invisible load of caregiving

  • Work-life balance and burnout

  • Relationship dissatisfaction or role changes in parenthood

Whether you’re trying to conceive, navigating postpartum life, feeling depleted, or re-evaluating your identity within your relationship or family, we offer a safe and nonjudgmental space to process your emotions and explore what healing looks like for you.

Therapy That Meets You Where You Are

At Clairville Therapy Group, our therapists draw from evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, attachment theory, and psychodynamic techniques. Whether you’re attending individual therapy or couples therapy, our goal is to support you in uncovering patterns, strengthening communication, and feeling more grounded and connected — to yourself and each other.

When One Partner Shuts Down and the Other Leans In

In many couples, one person tends to retreat while the other pushes harder to connect. It’s not a character flaw, it’s a dance rooted in attachment. This dynamic can feel frustrating and lonely for both people. The pursuer feels ignored. The withdrawer feels overwhelmed. At Clairville Therapy Group, we help couples understand and shift these patterns so both people feel safe and seen. 🌀 Try This Together: Pause an argument and ask, “What do you need right now to feel calmer with me?” www.clairvilletherapygroup.com
