Find a Conflict Resolution Therapist
Connect with therapists who specialize in conflict resolution and can help you build healthier communication patterns in your relationships.
Conflict is a natural part of relationships, whether with partners, family members, friends, or colleagues. When disagreements become recurring or emotionally charged, working with a therapist can help you develop new ways to navigate difficult conversations and find resolution.
Our therapists bring expertise in communication strategies, boundary-setting, and understanding the underlying dynamics that fuel conflict. Watch therapist intro videos to find someone whose approach resonates with you, then book a session online or in-person.

What does conflict resolution therapy involve?
Conflict resolution therapy focuses on understanding the patterns and triggers behind disagreements, developing more effective communication skills, and finding constructive ways to address differences. Your therapist may help you explore how past experiences shape your responses to conflict and teach practical techniques for de-escalating tense situations.
Can therapy help with workplace conflict?
Yes, many therapists work with clients navigating workplace disagreements, difficult colleagues, or tension with supervisors. Therapy can help you develop strategies for setting professional boundaries, communicating assertively, and managing the stress that workplace conflict often brings.
Is conflict resolution therapy the same as couples therapy?
While there's overlap, conflict resolution therapy can address disagreements in any relationship—not just romantic partnerships. If you're specifically looking to work on your relationship with a partner, you may want to explore couples therapy options. Many therapists are trained in both approaches.
How do I choose the right therapist for conflict resolution?
Finding the right fit matters. We recommend watching therapist intro videos to get a sense of their communication style and approach. Consider what type of conflict you're dealing with most often, and look for therapists who mention relevant experience. Learn more about what makes a good therapist match.
Can I do conflict resolution therapy online?
Absolutely. Many clients find online therapy convenient and effective for working on communication skills and conflict patterns. You can filter therapists by those offering virtual sessions and book directly through their profile.
How much does therapy for conflict resolution cost?
Therapists on First Session set their own rates, so costs vary. Many offer sliding scale options, and some sessions may be covered by extended health benefits. For more details, see our guide on therapy costs in Canada.
