Some of the most common reasons couples seek counselling are:

• Communication problems

• Conflict difficulties

• Pressures of parenting and family life

• Lack of intimacy and connection

I provide a safe space to explore these challenges, offering another perspective along with practical tools and ideas. I like to look at a couple in context of their experiences and family of origin, to understand the roots of the issue and the nature of the current dynamic, and then look at ideas to help you move towards a better more fulfilling relationship. Sometimes if one or both partners have experienced a trauma, it is essential to explore triggers and how they can play out. Conscious awareness of these can help gain understanding and control.
