“ Psychology is how to struggle in it. Philosophy is always looking for an exit out of it. ”
Every relationship faces seasons of disconnect, misunderstanding, or conflict. At Amundson & Associates, we believe that seeking support is a sign of strength and a vital step toward a healthier, more fulfilling partnership. Our specialized couples counselling and marriage therapy in Calgary offers a safe, neutral ground where you and your partner can de-escalate tension and be truly heard. Whether you are navigating the aftermath of a breach of trust, feeling like "roommates" rather than romantic partners, or simply finding yourselves stuck in the same repetitive arguments, our goal is to help you move from isolation back to intimacy.
Effective therapy is about more than just "venting"; it is about identifying the underlying patterns that drive disconnection. Our experienced therapists guide you through a structured process to uncover the root causes of your conflicts and equip you with practical, evidence-based tools to resolve them. We help you slow down reactive moments, understand each other’s emotional triggers, and replace criticism with constructive communication. By clarifying shared values and rebuilding a foundation of safety, we empower you to navigate life’s stressors as a unified team rather than adversaries.
We welcome couples at every stage of their journey—from new partners seeking pre-marital guidance to long-term spouses looking to reignite a spark. No matter where you are starting from, our compassionate approach is designed to foster mutual understanding and deepen emotional resiliency. You do not have to navigate your relationship challenges alone; let us help you build the lasting, loving connection you both deserve.

We are proud to offer a dedicated and alternative approach to psychological service specifically designed for Law Enforcement, First Responders, Veterans, and active service members. Suited to the unique needs of these trauma-exposed professionals and their families, our method deviates from conventional talk therapy by incorporating horses into the therapy and consulting process. This choice is intentional; the therapy process is directly taken from the office setting to the horse arena to facilitate a powerful, experiential form of healing. Our goal is to meet the unique needs of those who face continuous occupational stress with an intervention that is engaging and profoundly effective.
In this unique setting, the horses act as the Psychologist's “side-kick,” providing immediate, non-judgmental feedback that can accelerate personal insight. This unique experience allows participants to swiftly learn new skills in emotional regulation, increase self-awareness, and address challenges that might remain buried in a traditional session. The interactions naturally improve non-verbal and verbal communication skills, provide a tangible way to work through conflict, and allow clients to experience true connection—all while integrating the crucial element of having some fun along the way. Clinical research increasingly suggests that engaging with horses can significantly reduce symptoms of PTSD and improve executive functioning, demonstrating the powerful efficacy of this alternative modality. Recognizing that every situation is unique, the equine program is meticulously tailored to each case, addressing the specific needs of individuals managing high stress, couples needing reconnection, or families seeking stronger internal support.
Beyond formal therapy, specialized programs are also available to provide a much-needed place and space where service members can actively decompress and debrief from the stress and trauma of the job. These sessions are focused on teaching tangible tools for self-care and protecting mental health, delivering respite and skill-building out in the country with horses and hay bales, ensuring the healing process is as grounded and authentic as possible.
