Couples Counselling

So, you’re having difficulties in your relationship.

Relationships are at the heart of our lives as human beings. They offer us an opportunity to learn about ourselves in ways that we could only get from intimate contact. They are far from the perfect picture that the media would have us believe everyone else is experiencing. Having a trained perspective can help us navigate what can be one of the greatest and most challenging adventures of our lives.

How can couples therapy help?

Couples therapy provides a space to explore your conflicts rather then remaining stuck in them. In offering creative solutions to improve communication couples therapy helps to rediscover the love that seems to have been lost. And sometimes it helps couples to separate and move on whilst offering consideration and support for an ending process.

Why would you choose to work with me?

One of the places that really helped me get a perspective on the things I have struggled with in my own relationship has been the Men’s group I have been part of for the past 20 years. Hearing men over the years talk about their relationship difficulties and witnessing the benefits of other men in these groups offering support has always inspired me. And I have been on both sides of that process myself. In my professional capacity as a facilitator now for these groups, and alongside supporting individual male and female therapy clients with their relationship struggles in my private practice, this led me to want to train and gain experience as a couples counsellor. My unique blend of experience on both a personal and professional level leaves me well prepared to remain present with whatever you bring to these sessions.
