Why Mississauga
If you are looking for marriage counselling or relationship counselling in Mississauga, our couples therapy service is a place to ask about that support. You might want to talk about recurring arguments, feeling distant, rebuilding trust, or a decision you are struggling to make together. You do not need to be married to enquire.
Choose between appointments at 6700 Century Ave, Unit 347, and online sessions across Ontario. During the consultation, ask about a format, session language and clinician approach that work for both of you. If you are hoping to use benefits, confirm couples-session coverage with your insurer before booking a paid appointment.
What we work on
One partner pursues, the other withdraws, and the topic changes but the shape never does. We slow the cycle down until both of you can see it from the outside.
Trust that took a hit, from a betrayal or from years of small misses. Repair is deliberate work, and it is possible when both partners want it.
Two competent people running a household like a logistics company, with the closeness leaking out the sides. Common in dual-career and new-parent couples.
Interfaith, intercultural and immigrant partnerships where the pull of family expectations lands unevenly on each of you.
Pre-marital work on money, children, faith, in-laws and conflict style, before those conversations become emergencies.
Discernment work when one or both of you is unsure. The goal is clarity you both own, not a verdict from us.
How it starts
It begins with a free 15-minute consultation, ideally with both of you on the call. You describe what brought you here, we describe how we work, and you decide whether the fit feels right. Nobody is assessed and nothing is decided on that call.
Most couples book the 80-minute session for the first appointment. Fifty minutes is enough to maintain momentum later, but rarely enough to get a full picture of two people at the start. From there a weekly or biweekly rhythm is typical, reviewed together as the work settles.
Your therapist takes no sides in session. The client is the relationship, and the work is with the pattern between you rather than with either person's list of grievances.
Crisis support
Anchor & Bloom is not a crisis service. If either of you is in crisis in Mississauga, the following are available:
Yes. If you are seeking marriage or relationship counselling, book a couples consultation and explain what you would like help with. Couples do not need to be married. The consultation is a chance to ask about the clinician's approach and whether this service fits your situation.
Tell the clinician what each of you hopes to discuss, then ask how sessions work, whether they have experience with your concerns, and which session length they suggest. You can also ask about fees, privacy and what happens if you have different goals. The free 15-minute call helps you consider fit; it is separate from a full therapy session.
The office is at 6700 Century Ave, Unit 347, in the Meadowvale business area near the 401 and 403. It is a shared professional building, and the suite is staffed during posted hours.
Yes. Many Mississauga couples start in person and move online once the work has a rhythm, or the reverse. Online sessions run through Jane, a PHIPA-compliant Canadian platform, with both partners on the same call from the same room or from two locations.
Yes. Rashin Heydari-Alamdari offers couples sessions in Farsi and English. Mahima Chauhan offers couples sessions in Gujarati, Hindi and English. Shima Tavasoli offers couples work in English, Farsi/Persian, Hindi and Urdu. Julia Malynka offers online couples therapy in English, Russian and Ukrainian. Ask about a shared session language and clinician fit during the consultation.
Couples sessions are $200 for 50 minutes or $290 for 80 minutes. Psychotherapy is HST-exempt. The 15-minute consultation is free. Katelyn Matias, RP, can direct bill many participating plans through TELUS eClaims. Other clinicians provide Jane receipts for you to submit. Some plans treat couples sessions differently from individual therapy, so check first.
That is common and it is a reasonable place to start. One partner can book an individual session to talk through what they want from couples work, or you can book the free consultation together with no commitment. If a partner is not ready, we will not push, and we will say so honestly rather than let a lopsided first session happen.
The 15-minute couples consultation is free and has no obligation.
