It's normal to experience some conflict or disharmony in your intimate relationships at times, but if you feel stuck and unable to communicate your emotional needs to your partner, counselling might be able to help you work through the issues. Perhaps there is distrust or misaligned goals, toxic arguments or unspoken resentments, lack of intimacy or emotional disconnection. Life events such as a new baby, a career change, moving house or retirement might have affected your dynamic. An infidelity, illness or bereavement might have pitched you into crisis. At such times, counselling offers a safe space to air strong emotions, express fears and vulnerabilities, and hear each other in a different way. It can be a path back to connection with a new set of tools to help you on your way or a realisation that it's time to part ways with a model of how you can do that peacefully. Whatever the outcome, giving dedicated time to your relationship is a way to understand yourself and your partner more deeply, offering you both more happiness as individuals, together and apart.

Our relationships can be a great source of joy in our lives, so when we're experiencing difficulties with them, it's no wonder there's a real impact on our mental health and quality of life. I work with individuals to help them explore struggles they're having relating with others, whether it's their romantic partner or partners, family members, work colleagues or friends. This can also be a space to explore why you haven't found the right partner or why you keep choosing the wrong type. Exploring why you behave as you do in your relationships can lead to greater self-awareness, more compassion for yourself and others, and a deeper understanding of your own needs and ways of loving.

One 90-minute session focusing on a particular issue can sometimes be enough to help you find a way forward. Maybe it's an issue in the workplace or a misunderstanding with a friend. Or perhaps it's a challenge you're facing as a couple or a family. Designed for couples, individuals, family members, work colleagues or friends, you can come alone or with the other person, and in a supportive setting gain new understanding and perspective on the issue that's affecting you.
