I am a Relate trained counsellor and BACP Member with over 18 years of experience in relationship counselling, helping couples and individuals who are having issues. I’m also trained in systemic counselling and have family counselling experience including several years of experience as a family support worker, with a focus on supporting parents.

Here are some examples of the sorts of issues I help with:

  • Rebuilding relationships after an affair

  • Dealing with the heartbreak of infertility and how it affects relationships

  • Exploring the changing dynamics of different life stages. From the arrival of a baby to difficulty with teenagers, to becoming empty nesters, and the impact of retirement

  • The challenges of raising children with special needs

  • Addressing unresolved relationship issues with a parent

  • Addressing the effects on relationships of early years trauma, from physical and mental abuse to bullying

  • Exploring and helping with poor working relationships, such as with a colleague or boss

  • Improving the poor communication that very often proves to be at the very core most issues

I help couples to find a way through their issues, and to work out how they would like to move forward together, or sometimes apart.
