Why Choose Me:
Affairs
Affairs break trust and bring a lot of pain and hurt. Remorse is key if a couple are to find a way through together. I help couples to explore if this is possible and to try to understand what was happening in their relationship for this to happen.
Abusive Relationships
We usually think of physical rather than psychological abuse, yet I often work with the latter. Whether you are in a relationship you want to leave, or are recovering from a difficult relationship, I can hold what is normal and what is not. I help clients rebuild their confidence, inner strength and sense of themselves so they can move on with their lives.
Ex-Boarders & Their Partners
Going away to Boarding School may seem normal for you, whether you enjoyed or hated it. If as an adult you are struggling in relationships with partners and kids, unable to relax, a workaholic or escaping through technology, alcohol etc, and yearning something different, you may want to explore why being an ex-boarder might hold some answers. I also support partners of ex-boarders.
Intimacy
When we are ‘in love’, intimacy and closeness feels easy. However, beyond this phase as we each bring more of our individual needs, relationships become a complex dance with more unconscious behaviour. Vulnerability and intimacy are inevitably more difficult, and even scary enough to be avoided. I help individuals and couples rediscover intimacy.
Passion
Curious about what happened to your passion and why it has changed over the years? Our love relationships are different from friendships because of the sexual energy, yet few of us grow up learning how this changes over time and how to sustain it. Exploring this together can help your relationship thrive.
Separation
Separation is usually a painful and messy process. Whilst one or both of you decided the relationship is over, it’s normal to want to understand what went wrong, especially if you are struggling around your children, are not sure it’s the right decision, or keep going back to each other and seem unable to separate. I can help you work this through.
Sexual Issues
Are you wondering what happened to the sex within your relationship? Has something difficult happened around making love that you aren’t able to talk about together? Sometimes it takes a safe place to share the unspeakable, and to dare to find out if you can find a way through together.
Step Families
Step-family life has different challenges as usually past partners are still co-parenting, and each family is unique in the way it’s come together. Knowing the extra layers are normal, and working out how to communicate and manage these as a couple can make a real difference.
