Q&A
Do we have to talk about explicit details or describe our sex life in graphic terms?
Not at all. Sessions are guided by your comfort level. Many couples find that the most important conversations are about emotional connection, communication patterns, and what gets in the way of closeness, not clinical or graphic descriptions. You set the pace, and we follow your lead. Sex therapy often focuses more on helping spouses know how to discuss these topics effectively on their own rather than discussing every detail with a therapist.
Is this only for couples with serious problems?
No. Some couples come in feeling deeply disconnected, while others simply want to grow closer or understand each other better. You don't need to be in crisis to benefit. If intimacy feels like a tension point, even a quiet one, this space can help. Fertility struggles, the business of life, or aging can all impact how connected spouses feel.
Is the approach biblically grounded?
Yes. Liz, and all IMHT Therapists, hold a Master of Divinity in Clinical Counseling from Tyndale University and approaches sexuality within marriage with both theological care and clinical skill. Faith is not an add-on here. It's woven into how we understand the work.
Do both partners have to attend every session?
Couples therapy generally works best when both partners are present, but we can discuss what makes sense for your situation during the free consult. Some couples find it helpful to have occasional individual sessions alongside couples work.
What if one of us is more reluctant than the other?
That's very common. Even if something feels like an individual issues couples therapy can provide the best support for working through it. A reluctant partner doesn't have to be fully convinced about therapy: just willing to show up and see. Many people find the first session feels very different from what they expected.
Sometimes only one person is willing to attend therapy and that's still a good place to start.
Is this confidential? Will anyone know we're coming?
Yes, everything is confidential and governed by professional ethical standards. Video sessions are conducted through a secure, private platform.
Do you offer video sessions?
Yes — all sessions are available via secure video, Canada-wide. You can attend from the privacy of your own home.
