Looking for Relationship Help?
Hi, I'm Henk.
I work with couples who are navigating conflict, feeling disconnected, or struggling to communicate safely when conversations at home become heated or escalate. I provide a supportive space where you can talk together in a calm, constructive way — even about the hard stuff.
In each session, we explore meaningful paths forward—helping you move through challenges and toward reconnection, growth, and healing.


From Conflict to Connection: Restoring Love Together
Sessions can invite a transformative journey for couples seeking to heal and grow together. IPRE (Intimate Partner Relationship Education) within sessions invite stopping the cycle of conflict and embracing the opportunity to reconnect with the same person. Couples can explore how love can be restored, past hurts addressed, and helpful communication strategies considered.

Every relationship has a story. In these sessions, couples are invited to explore how conflict may have shaped their shared narrative—and how it might be rewritten. Using Narrative Therapy, we look at the problem as separate from the people, making space to reconnect with core values, address past hurts, and consider more supportive ways of communicating.

With an invitation to insight and a focus on improved ways of thinking about the relationship, each session seeks to empower couples with ways to navigate their challenges and rediscover the love that brought them together in the first place.

By fostering insight and encouraging better ways of thinking about their relationship, each session invites the possibility for couples to move forward with clarity, understanding, and renewed hope for the future.
