History
Established in 2006.
I am an experienced couples and marriage therapist with advanced training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). I have trained with Drs. John and Julie Gottman as well as Dr. Sue Johnson. I am also a certified sex therapist (Board of Examiners in Sex Therapy and Counselling of Ontario).
After years of experience in areas as diverse as education, child protection, healthcare, community counselling agencies, services for the developmentally challenged, Irene Oudyk-Suk launched her private practice in counselling. She began under the name In Step Counselling and Consulting and then as her interest, experience, and training in marriage and couples counselling grew she changed the name of her practice to Couples In Step in 2006.
