COUPLES COUNSELLING
Supporting your relationships
Couples Counselling
I work with couples in a very similar style to how I work with individuals however, of course holding and exploring two people’s fields and experiences as opposed to just the one. There is a necessary focus in developing the therapeutic relationship as a trio in order to support the safety and efficacy of the couple’s therapy.

-
Repairing rupture

I work with hetero and same sex couples in all stages of relationship including early stages of coupling, partnerships, marriage and divorce. I also work with all types of relationships for example supporting family members, friends and work colleagues. I offer sessions both in person at our clinic in Tintenbar and online via Skype.
