About Us
Rena Dosanjh
People aren’t problems, problems are problems.
When we understand them to be different, we can hold space for change.
Have you ever turned a small matter into an emotional outburst, got stuck in a loop on why someone treated you a certain way or consistently misunderstood your intentions?
Life’s challenges often show up in our relationships, shaped by our past experiences. More often than not, we react subconsciously, driven by triggers from past trauma and pain, leading to assumptions about people and situations as a protective mechanism.
At Relationship Therapy Centre, we reject the notion of people being entirely “wrong” or “problematic.” Instead, we focus on how problems are approached and communicated. Adopting a relational lens, we acknowledge everyone in therapy is part of a web of relationships, mutually influencing and being influenced. We dive deeper into these assumptions and beliefs, recognizing how they hinder human experiences, your relationships with others, and ultimately keep you from living a life you love.
We believe in the power of being seen, heard, and immersed in one’s experience. Our therapists are exceptional at holding space, helping clients explore the root of their problems, and making connections between current experiences and historical attachments to set the foundation for lasting change.
Heal your relationship with yourself and others.

Why Work With Us
As humans, we have two fundamental needs; to be connected with ourselves, and to experience belonging with others.
When we shift our perspective from criticism, internally or externally, and turn to curiosity, we begin to create space for compassion, accountability, change, and growth.
At Relationship Therapy Centre:
- We have a diverse team of recognized therapists who reflect the wide range of our community in the areas we service. We offer therapy in several languages and lived BIPOC experiences.
- We are committed to providing personalized support with tools and resources tailored to your goals.
- We approach your care through a relational lens, recognizing the interconnected nature of our lives and the influence we have on one another.
- We can help you understand the origin of the challenges you face, and develop skills to address the problematic cycles that try to keep you in distress.
