Dr. Bruce Tallman holds a doctorate in spiritual direction/counselling and coaches married couples as well as engaged couples. From 1988 to 2002 Bruce helped over 1500 couples prepare for marriage in over 50 group marriage preparation courses he facilitated for the Roman Catholic Diocese of London, and since 2002 he has worked with over 1000 individual engaged and married couples. All in all, he has helped over 2500 couples.

Bruce has been married for over thirty-five years (to the same woman!) As a married man he understands every kind of struggle couples go through. He and Grace have been through it all, including having three children, and are each other’s best friend.

Bruce is an expert on the Couple Communication Method which he and Grace practice every day. He also regularly facilitates workshops on all aspects of marriage for a married couples group connected with the Shalom Movement.
