Relationship or Couples Counselling
Couples come to relationship therapy for a variety of reasons, including communication problems, intimacy issues, infidelity or breakdown of trust. Perhaps you have been feeling distant from each other and would like to feel closer again? Maybe you have been arguing more and it’s getting too much?
I can help you learn to communicate better with one another and find a way through difficulties within the relationship. It is important that both partners have the opportunity to speak and to hear one another and I will provide the space for that. It can be hard to have conversations that feel difficult or that you worry will hurt the other person; I am there to support you with that and to figure out what you both want and need.
Couples who have worked with me have learned to communicate more openly and deeply, strengthened their relationships and felt closer and more connected to each other.
Whether you are in a marriage, civil partnership, long-term relationship, long-distance, same-sex, monogamous, polyamorous, or ethically non-monogamous, I’m LGBTQ+ allied and work with people in all kinds of relationships.
I have a particular interest in supporting relationships in which one or both partners are neurodivergent. Being neurodivergent myself I am aware of some of the challenges that can show up in relationships, things like sensory needs, managing overwhelm or dysregulation. Maybe one of you is newly realising/diagnosed and you’re trying to figure out how to navigate that – I can provide you with the space to do that together.
