Frequently Asked Questions
Relationship therapy for individuals and couples internationally.
Relationship therapy can be valuable whether you are in crisis or simply aware that something in the relationship is no longer working well. Many couples seek support long before they are considering separation. Often, the work begins with recognising patterns that have become difficult to change alone.
No. I work with both couples and individuals. Individual therapy can be particularly valuable for people wanting to better understand the relational patterns they bring into communication, intimacy, conflict, self-worth, or emotional connection.
My work is grounded in Relational Life Therapy and integrative psychotherapy, informed by neuroscience, attachment theory, trauma-informed practice, CBT, ACT, REBT, and EMDR training.
The focus is not only on insight, but on helping people recognise and shift relational dynamics as they happen in real time.
The first session is longer than ongoing sessions to allow space for a deeper understanding of the relationship dynamic, current difficulties, personal histories, and the patterns that may be keeping things stuck.
Initial sessions are:
2 hours for couples
90 minutes for individuals
Yes. I work online with clients across the UK, Europe, Australia, the United States, and internationally.
Every relationship is different. Some people benefit from shorter focused work, while others engage in longer-term transformational therapy.
Many couples begin experiencing meaningful shifts within the first few weeks of committed work, particularly when both people are willing to engage honestly with the process.
Many people arrive believing they have already discussed the issues countless times. Often the deeper shift comes not from repeating the conversation, but from changing how the relationship itself operates.
Healthy relationships involve learnable relational skills. Once people begin relating differently, those changes often extend beyond the relationship itself into family life, friendships, and professional relationships.
Relationship patterns rarely begin with us. Many of the ways people communicate, protect themselves, disconnect, or manage conflict have often been shaped across generations and repeated unconsciously over time.
One of the most meaningful reasons to work on a relationship is not only for yourselves, but for the experience of relationship your children absorb and later carry into their own lives.
When relational patterns shift, the impact often extends far beyond the couple itself.
Two-day intensive relationship therapy is designed for couples who feel stuck in painful patterns, are approaching a breaking point, or want to create meaningful change more quickly than weekly therapy alone can offer.
The intensive format creates the opportunity to step outside familiar dynamics and work in a more immersive and focused way than is possible in standard weekly sessions.
Extended therapeutic time often allows deeper relational patterns to emerge more quickly, creating the conditions for significant and lasting change.
Some couples choose intensives when the relationship feels close to breaking down. Others choose them because they do not want to spend years repeating the same patterns.
I believe meaningful therapeutic work should not exist only for those with the greatest financial resources.
Although much of my work is with established professionals, entrepreneurs, and international clients, I retain some flexibility where possible for those who may benefit from support but are experiencing financial limitations or significant life transition.
Good therapeutic work can have a profound impact not only on individuals and relationships, but across families and generations. Where possible, I believe people should have the opportunity to change the relationships that shape their lives most deeply.
Yes. Therapy is confidential within normal professional and legal limits relating to safety and safeguarding obligations.
This is very common. Often one person reaches out before the other feels ready. In some situations, beginning individually can still be valuable and may help create movement within the relationship dynamic itself.
Beginning therapy can feel like an important step. If it would be helpful, I offer a complimentary 10-minute introductory phone call to discuss whether the work feels like the right fit for you.
The quality of our relationships shapes the quality of our lives.
