Couples Therapy

Couples tend to come to me because their relationship has changed in some way. Sometimes it’s an affair or revelation that has shaken their world. At other times they may have noticed that they are drifting apart, or just not where they want to be in their relationship. If this you, I would like to help. 

Things often go wrong when our needs are not met. As a Human Givens counsellor, part of my work is around helping you get your needs met. There are plenty of things that can prevent this from happening, and that can impact a partnership.  You may have different approaches to work or the relationship, a life-transition or different ways of parenting. 

Blended families have their own richness and vibrancy, but sometimes they can do with a little extra help and attention too.

Occasionally, past patterns of thinking or behaviour may be impacting a relationship. These are often behaviours that were once useful, or protective, but are now not needed and possibly even disruptive. You can see the impact of these if you and your partner are having rows or communication issues. 

Sometimes, individual work may also need be needed, in the case of trauma, for instance.  In this case, I offer you both individual sessions to help you both move towards your chosen goal. 

I am a LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist, and have worked with alternative lifestyles such as kink and polyamory.

Sessions are in person in my comfortable rooms in Folkestone, Kent and within easy reach of Deal, Canterbury and Ashford, or online via zoom. A session costs £140 for a 75 minutes, and we usually meet every 2-3 weeks. You can book in an online chat to start with, here.
