Couples counselling is not the same as individual counselling, so therefore, I have undertaken advanced specialist training and qualification in working with couples.  I work with all couples regardless of their backgrounds, marital status or sexual orientation.

Many people want to have a satisfying relationship with a partner so it stands to reason that they can be confused, disappointed, hurt and angry when things go wrong.

Often this results in a breakdown in communication, leaving one or both partners feeling alone within the relationship.

Weekly couples counselling provides a confidential, safe and non-judgemental space to explore the problems that partners are facing.  I listen to both parties without taking sides, facilitating a process encouraging both partners to communicate and express their difficulties. This can help you listen and communicate with each other in a new way.

Helping you understand how you may get stuck in familiar negative patterns, you will be encouraged to slow down your interactions in conflict situations.  This allows more space to understand how you both get triggered and to make sense of what you are feeling at the time.
