Relationship therapy & couples counselling
Relationships are some of the most meaningful parts of our lives and some of the hardest. Whether you’re feeling distant, stuck in the same arguments, or trying to rebuild trust, relationship therapy offers a calm, supportive space to understand each other again.
As a UKCP-registered relationship counsellor, I work with couples and individuals warmly, gently and without taking sides.
What is relationship therapy?
Relationships are some of the most meaningful parts of our lives and some of the hardest. Whether you’re feeling distant, stuck in the same arguments, or trying to rebuild trust, relationship therapy offers a calm, supportive space to understand each other again.

What does relationship therapy involve
Sessions usually involve both partners meeting with me together, though individual sessions are welcome too. As your relationship counsellor, I create a safe, balanced space where each of you can speak honestly and feel heard.
We’ll look at the patterns that keep causing pain, and practise new ways of communicating and reconnecting. Sessions last 50 minutes, and we always begin with a free 20-minute phone consultation so you can decide whether it feels right.
How relationship therapy can help
Couples counselling can help with a wide range of experiences, including:
Communication that has broken down or turned into conflict
Rebuilding trust after an affair or betrayal
Feeling distant, disconnected or like “flatmates”
Intimacy and closeness that has faded
Navigating big changes — parenthood, moving, illness, work stress
Cultural, faith and family expectations placing pressure on the relationship
Deciding whether to stay together, and separating with care if not
Wherever you are, you don’t need the perfect words to begin, just a willingness to try.
