Rebuild Your Bond with North Bay's Specialized Couples Therapy
It’s all about you
Is your relationship feeling the strain of North Bay’s unique challenges? From geographic isolation to seasonal extremes, North Bay couples face distinct pressures that can create disconnection whether you live near the waterfront, in Ferris, or in West Nipissing.
At Couples Counselling Centre, we understand how Northern Ontario’s vast distances, North Bay’s military presence, and the gateway city positioning affect intimate relationships. Our specialized approach addresses the specific needs of couples in this resilient northern community.
Don’t let North Bay’s geographic isolation limit your access to relationship support. Our evidence-based virtual therapy helps couples create a secure, loving bond that can withstand both personal and 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 !
