For couples and multi-partnered people working through disconnection, conflict, or change.
Communication, trust, intimacy, and figuring out what you both actually need from each other/ whatever shape your relationship takes.
Nobody ever taught us how to communicate well, not at school, not at home. So if you and your partner struggle to talk to each other, that’s not a failing, it’s just something you were never taught.
Common issues I see
Problems I can help you with
Communication
Communication & conflict
Most couples aren’t short on love. they’re short on a shared way of talking that doesn’t escalate.
Different conflict styles
One of you leans in, the other shuts down, neither is wrong, but the mismatch needs a plan.
Old arguments on repeat
The same fight in different clothes. We work on what's actually underneath it.
Being heard vs. being right
Practical tools for slowing down enough to actually listen, especially mid-argument.
Trust
Trust & rebuilding
Whatever broke the trust (an affair, a lie, a slow drift), rebuilding it is a process, not a single conversation.
After an affair or breach of trust
Working through what happened without either partner being frozen in the worst moment.
Rebuilding after a big rupture
A structured way back to safety, at a pace that doesn't re-traumatise either of you.
Learning to trust again, safely
Tools for the hurt partner and the partner who caused the hurt, this isn't one-sided work.
Trust
Intimacy
Intimacy is more than sex. and when it goes quiet, it’s rarely obvious why.
Emotional distance
When you're living parallel lives instead of a shared one.
Physical intimacy that's dropped off
Touch, closeness and sex that's quietly stopped without either of you deciding it should.
Becoming co-parents, not partners
Finding each other again once the logistics of life have taken over.
Getting started
Sessions, in person or online
Sessions run online across the UK, or in person in Brighton, whichever suits you better. Most people start with a free initial consultation, a low pressure way to ask questions and get a feel for whether we’re a good fit before committing to ongoing therapy.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can we work on psychosexual issues in relationship therapy?
Yes of course. You can learn more about issues I can help with on the sex therapy service page.
Do we need to be married, or living together?
No. Any two (or more) people in a relationship they want support with are welcome, regardless of structure or how long you’ve been together.
What if we want completely different things from therapy?
That’s a very common starting point, not a barrier, part of the work is finding a shared goal you can both actually work towards.
Do you work with non-monogamous or polyamorous relationships?
Yes,multi-partnered and non-monogamous relationship structures are worked with as standard, not as a special case.
What if only one of us wants to come?
Individual sessions focused on your relationship are absolutely an option, and can still shift the dynamic between you but both/all of you need to be fully invested in the work to have relationship therapy.
Can we just come for some relationship maintenance?
Yes! Something I am a big fan of. We are not taught how to communicate so how are we meant to know. We often think of therapy for crisis but it’s a great way of keeping your relationship on track.
