Turning Point Therapy Team
At Turning Point our counsellors are committed to helping you achieve relationships that are loving, respectful and responsive. It is essential for healthy relationships to practice healthy self-esteem and boundaries. To change complaints into requests and to repair thoroughly when hurts and disappointments have occurred.
Our couples therapists have extensive experience and training in a number of approaches to couples therapy. We continue to study and work on our own relationship challenges. We see ourselves as walking alongside you as we continue to work on the same kinds of struggles in relationships.
All therapists have been carefully selected to provide you with different styles and skills. Finding the right fit is essential to a good outcome. We invite you to read about our therapists and contact them if you have any questions that will help you make a good choice for you and your partner.

Kerena Lam
People typically think there is one reality, but actually there are two realities between a couple. We think our own reality is based on facts but actually it's based on perceptions. Therefore, it's important to understand both of those realities, and see if there can be a mutual understanding and respect of each other's experience. In couples counselling, Kerena will help you gain more awareness of what's working and not working in the relationship, what are the underlying needs that are potentially not being addressed, and find shared meaning together again. Therapy will deal with couple conflict and resolution, but also build and repair friendship and love within the relationship.
Kerena is certified in Gottman’s Couples Therapy and provide couples counselling for those in monogamous, non-monogamous, polyamorous, and kink relationships. Kerena is also certified in Adlerian Parenting (also known as the STEP approach to parenting), and offers counselling to parents/caregivers.
