A busy lifestyle doesn’t always allow you to make time for a traditional in-clinic appointment. With video visits, you can see a Medcan psychologist live over a secure platform via smartphone, tablet or PC, in the comfort of your home or office.

Simply book your appointment by phone, log in, and your psychologist will be waiting for you to discuss your health needs.

Medcan psychologists are able to address the majority of concerns through video visits. And our clients receive the same level of privacy and service as they would with an in-clinic visit.

Relationship Counselling is for couples looking to enhance their marriage or relationship. Using a proven counselling approach, a Medcan psychologist works with couples to help them better understand one another and rebuild a lifelong friendship, and partnership.

Relationship Counselling at Medcan begins with four consultation sessions:

• Initial 1.5-hour consultation to discuss key concerns
• Two 1-hour sessions with each partner independently
• 1-hour follow-up with both partners to discuss next steps and the need for additional sessions

At the end of the 4 sessions, you’ll have a customized program tailored to your needs, with clear action steps on ways to strengthen and nurture your bond.

Counselling Approach

Medcan Relationship Counselling is led by Dr. Mark Rothman, a registered psychologist with over 25 years of experience counselling couples and families. Dr. Rothman uses the Gottman Method for couple’s therapy, one of the two largest comprehensive therapy options. It is an evidence-based counselling approach built on findings from over 3,000 couples that allows couples to:

• Become better friends
• Learn to manage conflict
• Create ways to support each other’s hopes by focusing on 9 components of healthy relationships

Through a series of exercises focused on building a “Sound Relationship House”, including building love maps together, sharing fondness of one another and taking a positive perspective, couples ultimately build trust and commitment.
