Feedback from Customers: 1. Brian has been a fantastic source of comfort and guidance as we navigate difficult obstacles in our relationship and work to reconnect to my genuine self. He has taught me practical communication techniques that I apply each day with my spouse and have significantly enhanced our relationship. The healing has been gradual and intentional, and with Brian, I’ve been more stable and grounded in reality. I show up more fully for my partner but also for myself. Thank you, Brian! 2. We found Brian after researching and receiving numerous positive references online, and we are so thankful we did. He has helped my partner and me through some very hard moments in our relationship with patience, knowledge, and kindness. Just as significant, Brian has given us tools that we continue to use today and helped cultivate the emotional empathy, communication, and understanding that every healthy relationship needs. His advice helped us comprehend each other better and approach challenging conversations with more care and respect. If you want a couples counselor who is thoughtful, supportive, and truly committed to your growth together, I highly recommend Brian. 3.

I used Brian as I looked to reframe myself both personally and professionally. There was lots of direct, non-judgmental feedback to help me grow as a person and a business leader. He gave me lots of homework and reading, challenging me, but being my biggest supporter. I feel more confident now to be a better person, a better leader and better husband.5.

"Doing the work" isn't easy. It strips you back to parts of yourself that have been trapped in time. Parts that were never allowed to grow and move on from those...

8. Along with his couples work, Brian is an exceptional coach / therapist for individuals as well. I came to him struggling with worry, ruminating thoughts, difficulty feeling emotions, and a tendency to suppress them. In a very short time, Brian’s approach helped me shift from over-intellectualizing everything to simply allowing myself to feel my emotions without judgment. Instead of trying to analyze and fix every problem, I’ve learned to become wise enough to recognize and experience my feelings authentically. His straightforward guidance has been truly transformative, and I highly recommend Brian to anyone looking to improve their emotional well-being and relationships.9. Since working with Brian, and after our very last session, my partner and I, we had the best sex EVER! In my opinion the best we’ve ever had!!! And this was after we were on the brink of wanting to stop living together, having daily repeated fights, and in the midst of an emotional affair. Brian helped us navigate what we thought was un-navigable. We understand each other so much better, and the repetitive fights have nearly stopped. We will be continuing to work with Brian occasionally as relationship maintenance. I truly believe he is a tool that every partnership needs, and can change your life. I am beyond grateful. Before working with Brian I felt like we were at a crossroads, 7+ years together with no changes I felt like it was the end. From that to now starting a family together, we are expecting!!! We are so happy. I wish Brian could be in 1000 places at once to help everyone, he is truly the best person I have ever worked with. He gets down to the real root cause of what’s going on, and it’s almost never what you think it is. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!10.

After coming across Brian Tohana's work, I was seriously impressed. As a fellow counselor in the field, I could see that he has a level of depth and understanding into what makes relationships succeed or fail that many people overlook. His passion for his work is inspiring. And his understanding of marriage as a sacred covenant is deep and profound.12. Working with Brian has been one of the most transformative experiences for both myself and our relationship. I deeply appreciated the way he structured the sessions. We each began with an individual session, which gave him the chance to get to know us separately and allowed us to speak openly without worrying about protecting the other’s feelings. From there, we moved into couples sessions, and I loved that the length of the sessions could vary based on what was needed. Our first few were three hours long, and having that much time and space meant we could really open up, dive deep and settle into the process without feeling rushed.
The couples sessions were incredibly immersive. Instead of simply talking through issues, Brian guided us through different exercises and experiential practices that directly supported the parts of our relationship that needed care and attention. What I appreciated most was how the work naturally evolved. We didn’t follow a rigid formula, Brian met us exactly where we were each week, allowing the direction of the sessions to grow and shift based on what was coming up for us individually and as a couple. Everything felt intentional, responsive, and aligned with what we needed in the moment.
Brian’s presence is non-judgmental, grounded, and deeply safe. He created a container where both of us could open up and connect honestly. Through the experiences he facilitated, I found myself accessing deeper and deeper layers within me, parts of myself I had tucked away for years. Being able to explore and heal those layers with a skilled, safe and non-judgemental guide and my husband by my side was profound.
I’ve changed immensely through our time working with Brian, and so has the entire dynamic of our relationship. Much of what surfaced was my own trauma, and doing this work experientially, with someone as centred and compassionate as Brian, was essential. Throughout the entire process, I felt safe, seen, and supported.
If you’re reading this and wondering whether to take the next step, let this be your sign. It likely won’t feel comfortable, but it’s in the discomfort that the real evolution, magic, and transformation happen. Brian is one of the most skilled guides to take you on this journey inwards. Working with Brian was one of the best choices we’ve made for ourselves and for our relationship. 13.

His methods and nonjudgmental attitude were wonderful. He was accommodating with our schedules. And the lessons we learned were simple yet life-changing, especially in moments of conflict. Thank you!15. I would recommend him to anyone, and work with him again in a heartbeat. Brian's help was crucial for my partner and me to see what was not working. His direct, simple, and compassionate approach helped us synchronize our hearts and minds towards what truly matters and also gave us techniques to help us to connect immediately.
