What is the impact of lockdown on your intimate relationship? Living in a world of restrictions may have put unusual pressure on you and your partner. This added stress may still be having an impact, or it may have brought to the surface issues that had previously been swept under the carpet. Feeling disconnected and out of step with your partner does not feel good and often ends up causing repetitive arguments.
Gaining an understanding of why you get stuck, opens an opportunity for you to engage differently so you can create positive experiences rather than damaging ones, even when you don't agree. Couples counselling provides a safe space where you can gain an understanding of what happens to your brain when you don't feel safe.

I will engage with you in a way that feels safe, supportive and non-threatening. The session will focus on your immediate needs. I will draw on many psychotherapy models. You become the expert in your own healing journey while you are compassionately and respectfully supported as you explore, work through and resolve past and present difficulties and/ or challenging issues.
When I am working with you I will be drawing from a broad base of life experience and my own healing journey and personal development, as well as 10 years of professional training, volunteering and working with people in my private practice. I am passionate about my work and I am dedicated to using my skills and knowledge to the best of my ability so that you will have a positive outcome.

It is about fine tuning your skills, which I can help you develop and understand more fully when working with you. It is good to firstly recognise that you will have some emotional baggage that you bring to your relationship. After all you have had many previous relationships with parents, friends and possibly romantic partners.
These are just some of the things we would work on together in session where you will get a direct experience and get a fully understanding how the lack of awareness to these things can impact negatively on your relationship.
In our busy world it is easy to become disconnected from your partner, so setting aside 15 minutes at some point during the day, where there are no distractions, will give you the opportunity to stay in touch with what is happening in your partner's world.If you want your relationship to remain close, then you need to make your relationship a priority, the same way you do for other things that are important to you e.g.
