Counselling for Individuals and Couples & Clinical Supervision in Surbiton and online
COUPLES THERAPY
The experience of ‘doing life’ with one person, day in day out, through times of struggle, change and personal growth, can be really hard. Some couples try therapy as a last resort to save the relationship. Others are not on the brink, but feel they have reached an impasse and would like to move past it. Some couples would simply like to feel more connected. And some would like to find a way to separate without hostility. Relationships are always a work in progress and couples therapy is an excellent way to lay the best foundations for your next chapter - together or apart.
Whether it’s crisis or curiosity that brings you here, I can offer you:
-
the space - in person or online - to have some meaningful conversations with each other and to say the hard things in the presence of someone who will ensure both of you feel safe, heard and understood.
-
a third set of eyes and ears to help you spot and make sense of the patterns and cycles you get caught in - and show you how to break free of them
-
questions that allow you to reflect on yourselves and your relationship in new ways
-
support to meet each other with curiosity rather than judgment, even when emotions run high
-
challenge - with warmth and respect - when I think it’s required
