Meet Raffi Bilek—Therapist at Best Therapists

Raffi has worked primarily with couples for over a decade and frankly, he loves it. If every person unique, then every pair is doubly unique. Working with unique people to pursue success in the most important relationship in their lives is fascinating, hugely important work, and Raffi is ready to roll up his sleeves and dig into whatever you bring to the table. (Honestly, whatever you bring – he’s seen an awful lot.) From the worst infidelity to small, everyday challenges, from the brink of divorce to “something just feels a little off with us,” Raffi helps couples (as well as families, friends, and individuals) make real change, and shore up their communication and relationship skills so that they can have the relationships and the lives they truly want. Raffi is Canadian by birth and comedic by choice. He sometimes thinks he might like to try stand-up comedy but feels like it’s too much travel (there’s a reason he chose a profession that mostly involves sitting). A former computer programmer, Raffi decided that people are much more interesting. He changed tacks after college and has never looked back.

Something is stuck in your relationship. Too often you find yourself in giant fights with each other; or maybe you’re at a point where you hardly speak at all. You feel lonely and disconnected in your relationship, frustrated and the constant cycle you’re stuck in, angry at how far this has gone – or at a new crisis you’re unexpectedly facing: a threat of divorce, an over-the-top fight, or the discovery of some text messages you wish you’d never seen. You want to get back to the relationship you once had, to what you wish could be there again. Sometimes it seems so far out of reach. There is a way back. I help couples rescue, repair, and revitalize relationships that have gone off track. I give couples hope for a future together that looks like the partnership they’d always imagined. I don’t just sit and listen to couples complain about each other. When you work with me, you’ll get the tools and skills you need to do things differently with each other so that you can continue to grow your relationship over a lifetime. You’ll walk away feeling connected, confident and secure in a relationship that’s working better than ever. Is that something you’re looking for? Great. Reach out and let’s get cracking!
