Awards and Recognitions

It’s all about you

Is your relationship experiencing the unique challenges of life in Northwestern Ontario? From the isolation of winter months to the seasonal rhythms of Lake of the Woods, Kenora couples navigate distinctive pressures that can create disconnection whether you live in Keewatin, Norman, or Lakeside.

At Couples Counselling Centre, we deeply understand how Kenora’s remote location, seasonal tourism economy, and outdoor lifestyle influence your relationship dynamics. Our thoughtful approach addresses the specific needs of couples in this beautiful but sometimes challenging lakeside community.

You don’t need to let Kenora’s geographical remoteness limit your access to transformative relationship support. Our evidence-based virtual therapy creates a safe space for couples to develop a secure, loving bond that thrives despite the unique regional challenges.

Meet MaryAnn Dawood

I always knew that “The bond between the couple is the heartbeat of the home”. The heartbeat is the life force. When the couples relationship is characterized by a lot of conflict and fighting, it resonates in the home. I knew that when you help a couple, you help them as individuals and you help their home! There is no greater pursuit in my eyes !
