Couples Therapy & Relationship Counselling

Every relationship goes through rough patches — but when the same arguments keep resurfacing, when conversations shut down instead of open up, or when you feel more like flatmates than partners, it can be hard to find your way back to each other on your own.

Couples therapy isn't just for relationships in crisis. It's a space to understand what's really going on beneath the surface, rebuild trust and communication, and decide together what you both want your relationship to look like going forward.

What Brings Couples to Therapy

  • Communication that breaks down into arguments, silence, or talking past each other
  • Feeling disconnected, distant, or more like co-parents or housemates than partners
  • Rebuilding trust after a breach, whether recent or long-standing
  • Navigating a major change — a new baby, a move, illness, or a career shift
  • Differences in needs around intimacy, finances, or future plans
  • Wanting support to separate well, if that's the direction things are heading

How Counselling Can Help

I work with both of you together, creating a space where each person can be heard without the conversation turning into a repeat of the same argument. We'll look at the patterns that keep you stuck, the communication habits that aren't working, and what each of you actually needs — then build practical ways of relating that you can carry outside the sessions.

I work with couples and relationships of all structures and orientations, including LGBTQ+ couples and those in non-monogamous relationships.

You're Not Alone in This

Relationship difficulties often sit alongside other things — anxiety, stress, or unresolved issues from the past. If trust has been affected by abusive behaviour within the relationship, individual support may be more appropriate than couples work — see the Abuse Counselling page. I'm happy to talk through what's likely to help before we begin.
