Our closest relationships can be a source of love, security and connection, but they can also leave us feeling confused, overwhelmed, isolated or misunderstood. When communication breaks down or life places additional pressures on a relationship, it can be difficult to find a way forward on your own.
Couples therapy provides a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space where both partners can feel heard. Together, we can explore the patterns within your relationship, develop a deeper understanding of each other’s needs, improve communication, and strengthen your connection.
Understanding both your past experiences and your present relationship dynamics can help make sense of recurring challenges. Exploring attachment styles, communication differences, emotional needs and individual life experiences often creates opportunities for greater empathy, trust and intimacy.
I have particular expertise in working with neurodivergent couples and relationships where one or both partners are neurodivergent. Looking at your relationship through the lens of different neurotypes, processing styles and co-occurring conditions can often explain patterns that have previously felt confusing or impossible to resolve.
Psychoeducation can also play an important role in helping couples better understand each other’s experiences. Topics such as Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD), Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA), sensory differences, autistic communication styles, ADHD, and Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) can provide valuable insight, helping both partners feel understood, validated and better equipped to support one another.
Every relationship is unique, and I tailor sessions to meet your individual needs, whether you are looking to strengthen your relationship, navigate a specific challenge, or decide on the best path forward together.
Fees
Couples therapy sessions start from £90. Session length is agreed during our initial consultation, allowing us to choose a format that best suits your relationship and therapeutic goals.
