Couples Counselling in Ashford (Surrey)
I mostly draw from Narrative Therapy which helps you reframe and rewrite the stories you tell about your life, Systemic Therapy which focuses on your relationships and interactions within families and groups and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) which explores your thoughts and behaviours.
I am a Consultant Clinical Psychologist with over 30 years experience supporting people, directly through therapy and as an accomplished Clinical supervisor. I work with a range of issues including anxiety, low mood, domestic issues, stress, memory problems, dementia and more complex and enduring problems. I work with adults of all ages and have particular expertise working with those in mid and later life stages.
When we meet we will address the issues important to you in a way, and at a pace, comfortable for you, whether these stem from past experiences, present challenges or worries about the future.

I am an Integrative Psychotherapist working with adults, young people (11+), and couples.
Sometimes life calls for a place to slow down, speak freely, and feel met without judgement. You may be feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or emotionally stuck—carrying experiences from earlier in life that continue to shape how you feel, think, or relate to others. You might notice patterns repeating, struggle with anxiety or low mood, or find it difficult to understand or express what you’re feeling. You don’t need all the answers—just a sense that something within you needs space, care, and attention.

You overthink conversations, say yes when you really want to say no, lose yourself in relationships, or find yourself being far harder on yourself than you would ever be with someone else.
I’m curious about why certain reactions, habits or relationship difficulties keep repeating and what may have shaped them. Together, we can explore how past experiences affect you today. I’m an active, relational therapist: I ask questions, share what I notice and invite you to see things from different perspectives.

FAQ - About Couples Therapy
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.
When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.
How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.
How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
