Relationship & Couple Counselling

When Communication Breaks Down, The Relationship Begins To Suffer

They are built by understanding them, communicating through them, and learning how to reconnect emotionally.

Sometimes The Problem Is Not The Argument

Very often, the real issue is:

  • emotional buildup
  • unresolved hurt
  • emotional triggers
  • feeling unheard
  • negativity
  • resentment
  • fear
  • subconscious reactions from the past

Many couples keep trying to solve surface arguments while deeper emotional reactions continue underneath.

At Body & Mind Natural Health, we focus on helping people better understand:

  • communication patterns
  • emotional escalation
  • subconscious emotional reactions
  • negative thinking loops
  • emotional disconnection
  • trust breakdown
  • unresolved emotional pain

We don’t teach coping. We teach change.

Understanding Emotional Triggers Changes Relationships

The conscious mind lives in the present. The subconscious mind is timeless.

Sometimes people react emotionally not because of the current situation alone — but because older emotional patterns are being activated underneath. When reactions do not fit the situation, emotional buildup is often involved.

This is where emotional awareness becomes extremely important. We help clients better understand:

  • subconscious emotional reactions
  • emotional escalation
  • emotional meaning behind words
  • tone and body language
  • emotional interpretation
  • negative automatic reactions
  • fear-based responses

This creates better communication clarity and reduces emotional misunderstanding.

Rapid Emotional Release & Empowerment (RERE)

Many relationship struggles are intensified by unresolved emotional pain from the past.

Rapid Emotional Release & Empowerment (RERE) was developed to help reduce emotionally stuck reactions that continue affecting communication, trust, connection, and emotional stability.

RERE is designed to help people:

  • release emotional buildup
  • reduce emotional intensity
  • let go of emotionally stuck reactions
  • duce subconscious emotional triggers
  • improve emotional clarity
  • move forward more effectively

The goal is not simply talking about problems endlessly.
The goal is helping people create meaningful emotional change.

BEST-SELLING BOOK & CLINICAL FRAMEWORK

Thought Shifting & Relationship Patterns

Negative thinking patterns can slowly damage communication, connection, and emotional safety inside relationships.

Thought Shifting helps people better recognize and reduce:

  • overthinking
  • negativity
  • criticism
  • emotional overreaction
  • fear-based thinking
  • destructive mental loops

RERE helps clear the emotional past. Thought Shifting helps build the future.

Our Goal Is Always To Help Families Move Forward In The Healthiest Way Possible

We are strongly pro-family and believe relationships should be repaired whenever possible through healthier communication, emotional understanding, and mutual effort.

However, when separation becomes necessary, the focus shifts toward creating:

  • healthier communication
  • reduced emotional conflict
  • workable parenting solutions
  • emotional stability for children
  • respectful co-parenting direction
  • healthier long-term outcomes

The goal is never destruction.
The goal is healthier outcomes for everyone involved.

What Our Clients Say

Real letters. Real results. Real people — from Windsor and across the region.

"After 5 years of pain and six medical doctors, I was told I was physically fine — yet I was in debilitating pain and unable to function. It is now 6 weeks later and I am totally PAIN FREE. You have helped me more than everyone else in the last five years all put together. Thank you for giving me my life back."

Robert B.

Windsor, Ontario

"The most amazing part about working with Rick is that he makes the healing process possible without drama and pain. Issues I had carried for 27 years were simply recognized and released, leaving me feeling a sense of contentment I'd only dreamed of. I would highly recommend Rick to anyone with anger or trauma issues. He doesn't judge or criticize — but he won't let you lie to yourself either."

Heather N.

Windsor

"I have my M.A. in Counseling Psychology, an M.B.A., and over 35 years of psychological training. Over 10 years as a well-trained hypnotist. I had not been able to budge my own problematic block — Rick Saruna was able to help me. And he did it in a noisy hallway of a restaurant. He's the best I've ever worked with or seen."

Bill Scimone

M.A. Counseling Psychology, M.B.A.

"When I first came to Body & Mind I was desperate and broken. After only a few sessions, I began to notice a dramatic change in my thinking. By the end of my program I felt like an entirely different person. My wife and I — whose relationship had strained to the point of near collapse — are now stronger than ever. I also have to mention how great Patti was. She always made me feel comfortable from the moment I walked in."
