PAIRS is about creating and sustaining extraordinary relationships. Relationships are work and take a serious commitment to each other and yourself.

PAIRS teaches couples basic skills to sustain and nurture love, while creating and maintaining a relationship in which love can thrive. Participants gain knowledge and skills to talk and listen to each other with empathy and compassion, to understand emotions in themselves and others, to deal with conflict and differences in ways that strengthen - rather than destroy - relationships, and much more. PAIRS is an incredible personal journey of self-discovery and learning that will enable you to truly connect with the most important people in your life.

PAIRS is an experience that will forever touch your life. You will come out of PAIRS with skills, knowledge and experiences that make extraordinary relationships possible.

Dr. Lori Gordon developed PAIRS by skimming the cream of virtually every type of psychology in the area of marriage relationships - the results, a program that works like nothing else. It is education, not therapy - but participants find it often brings about change that years of therapy could not.

Bill and Charlotte Dyck began their training with Lori Gordon and PAIRS international in 1994 and attained Master PAIRS Teacher status in 1998 and PAIRS Trainer status in 2000. Since that time, they have lead 18 groups through the program and have seen over 350 people graduate from their training. Lives have been dramatically changed - countless marriages saved and many families restored.

"My greatest desire is to say something so profound about the PAIRS course that upon hearing my remarks, other people would sign up without hesitation."

"PAIRS has helped us move forward at a pace I would not have believed. It's a fantastic course."

"The skills and tools are the most valuable assets I have come away with. Not only are we using them to better our relationship, but they are excellent parenting tools."

"PAIRS has changed a 29 year marriage of confusion, hurt, silence and missed opportunities into a vibrant relationship of pleasure and trust that thrives on change and growth."

"I'm 60 years old and have been married 38 years. These short four months have been more meaningful to me than any other educational endeavor I have ever experienced."

A number of research studies have been conducted which show that PAIRS works!

In evaluation the impact of PAIRS, researchers have found:

• A significant reduction in participants' anxiety, depression, hostility and anger.
• Positive changes in the participants' view of their partner and themselves.
• Gains for couples in areas relating to sharing, listening, intimacy, emotional openness, conflict resolution, good feelings, closeness, trust, commitment, caring, understanding, bonding, affection, sexuality, equality, autonomy, and love.
• That couples are able to maintain the enhancements to their relationships.

Bill and Charlotte Dyck have been married for 40 years - they know the PAIRS tools work, because they use them in their own marriage. As the husband and wife team behind Pacific Family Life Counselling Inc., they combine their personal insight with over 23 years counselling experience. They have the personal and clinical understanding to help couples restore and enhance their relationships.

Couples interested in finding out how PAIRS can enhance their relationship are encouraged to come to a free information night. Hear stories of couples, who have taken the program, meet Bill and Charlotte, and ask all the questions you can think of. It is an evening that could mark the beginning of great things in your relationship.

The PAIRS course in 120 hours of class time spread over 6 weekends (one weekend a month for six months).

Payment can be made by cash, debit, and cheque, Visa or MasterCard.

PAIRS is very cost effective. The fee works out to be less than $35.00 per hour - far less than traditional counselling and far, far better than the pain and expense of a failed marriage.

Decide that your relationship is important enough to invest the necessary time, energy and money to learn the knowledge, skills and understanding to transform your relationship.
