When we’re in a good relationship, we can feel on top of the world! However, when problems arise in our relationships, it can make us feel like our lives are falling apart. Equally, when we become newly single or have had to let a relationship go, we can have trouble finding ourselves again.
Whether you are going through major relationship crises or experiencing different issues that are making you unhappy, I can help you.
No matter whether you’re in a new relationship, in a long-term relationship, or not in a relationship at all, I can support you.
Considering couples therapy?
Beginning a course of therapy may seem intimidating, especially when involving a partner. You might worry that your partner won’t be open or cooperative, or that the sessions will bring up painful issues that lead to arguments. Rest assured that even if there are some uncomfortable conversations, therapy will help your relationship heal.
Signs your relationship deserves attention
The same argument keeps coming back in different clothes.
You feel more like flatmates than partners.
Small irritations build up until they suddenly explode.
You struggle to say what you really need.
Trust has been hurt and you are unsure how to repair it.
You love each other but no longer feel heard.
Wanting help with your relationship is not a sign of failure. It is a sign that the relationship matters to you.
Finding your way back to each other
Whether you come alone or as a couple, we create a space where both perspectives can be spoken and actually heard. That alone can begin to change the tone at home.
We look at the patterns behind the arguments, because the dishes or the phone are rarely the real subject. You learn to recognise the cycle you are caught in and to step out of it before it escalates.
Along the way you practise concrete communication tools, and where trust has been hurt we work on rebuilding it honestly, at a pace both of you can carry.
