Interpersonal Conflicts

Support for Navigating Tension, Miscommunication, and Relationship Stress

Even the strongest relationships can feel strained under the weight of misunderstanding, unspoken resentment, or emotional distance. Whether you're struggling with a partner, friend, family member, or colleague, unresolved conflict can leave you feeling isolated, anxious, or stuck.

At Four Wings Psychology, we provide therapy for interpersonal issues and conflict resolution in Nepean and online across Ontario. We help individuals and families explore patterns, improve communication, and repair relationships, starting with yourself.

What Are Interpersonal Conflicts?

Interpersonal conflict isn’t always loud or explosive. Sometimes it’s a quiet tension, emotional shutdown, or walking on eggshells. You might be:

  • Arguing frequently with a partner or family member
  • Feeling misunderstood or constantly on edge in certain relationships
  • Struggling to set boundaries or express your needs
  • Caught in a cycle of people-pleasing or defensiveness
  • Experiencing guilt, resentment, or emotional burnout in your relationships
  • Repeating the same conflict patterns across different relationships

These issues can impact your mood, self-esteem, and overall mental health. Therapy can help you untangle the roots and practice new, healthier ways of relating.

How Therapy Helps with Interpersonal Conflict

At Four Wings Psychology, we provide a supportive, non-judgmental space where you can explore how your relationship patterns have formed and how they can shift. Whether you're working through conflict with someone specific or trying to understand your own communication style, therapy can help you:

  • Understand your triggers and emotional responses
  • Identify unhealthy relational patterns (e.g., codependency, avoidance, control)
  • Build communication and conflict resolution skills
  • Set and maintain healthy boundaries
  • Heal from past relational wounds or attachment issues
  • Strengthen your sense of self in relationships

Our therapists use approaches such as Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT)Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)Narrative Therapy, and Attachment-Based Therapy to guide the process.

This Work Is For You If You Are:

  • Experiencing recurring conflict with a partner, friend, or family member
  • Struggling with communication or emotional intimacy
  • Recovering from past relationship trauma or betrayal
