“In my experience, everything healing can happen within a couplehood: reparative, growthful emotional change, impacting the individual, the couple and the family.  Over the 15 years with my partner, my relationship has been my most profound teacher”

Couples Therapy

  • Transforming disconnection and reducing conflict
  • Emphasising couples resources and strengths
  • Working with changing old couple cycles and dynamics
  • Supporting more collaborative and co-created couple experiences

My couples therapy practice is underpinned by a focus on the existing resources and strengths of a relationship.  Even if at the time of attending therapy, couples are at their most vulnerable, It’s a place where they can begin to slow down and rest.  Opening their minds and hearts to each other, feeling confident in the safe, assured environment of my practice.

I know though the trial and celebrations of my own relationships that collaborative relating is so important in maintaining emotional wellness.  So the focus in my couples work is on care, connection and protection within the couple dynamic.

I bring to couples therapy a specialised and extensive experience that is highly regarded and effective.  Utilising contemporary evidence based modalities like Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) my practices in couples therapy includes weaving Gestalt therapy, attachment theory, neurobiology and mindefullness into a significant experience of connection and transformation.

Generally, I recommend couples to book fortnightly appointments.  The number of sessions that couples need can vary from case to case depending on circumstances.

Couples often ask me if they are also able to see me for individual sessions whilst also working on their relationship.  Again, this can vary depending on each couples circumstances.
