AERCS’ certified counsellors help couples address their relationship challenges.

AERCS’ staff includes registered counsellors, psychotherapists, and certified social workers, helping couples with:

  • Communication Issues
  • Infidelity
  • Financial Stress
  • Intimacy Issues
  • Parenting Differences
  • Trust Issues
  • Conflict Resolution
  • Life Transitions
  • Emotional and Physical Abuse
  • Unresolved Past Issues

Younger couples frequently have trust issues, and commonly argue about sex, and feel constrained when their relationship conflicts with a demanding  career. Older people who have been together longer will fight over household chores and annoying habits, and one partner not valuing their time together. Communication problems and money issues are common triggers for all couples.

Cultural shifts in attitude and values over the past seventy-five years have redefined the meaning of the marriage commitment which leads to older, unmarried couples seeking counseling because they know they have something special and could benefit from professional counselling. They need guidelines to help frame discussions that will mitigate future conflicts.

AERCs focuses on understanding how each partner communicates and interacts with one another. This includes identifying areas where partners may be struggling. Our process helps improve communication and problem-solving skills.

The Gottman Method is effective in helping couples resolve conflicts, improve intimacy, and strengthen their relationship bond.
