Communication difficulties and breakdowns in our relationships can occur for many different reasons. When they occur, partners, children or indeed the family or even friends might be affected and become involved in some way, and this has a knock-on effect on us as well as others. Changes in family life, whether in somebody’s physical health, their relationships, or in children's behaviour, can be effectively addressed in family therapy. I adopt a non-blaming, collaborative approach to working with clients to find ways of moving forwards in life when feeling stuck. Children and adults are included, either together or individually.

Sometimes these are triggered by obvious causes, like a breakup in a relationship, job loss or a bereavement, while at other times the underlying causes seem opaque, especially when life appears to be fulfilling and good.We carry around sadness, guilt, shame, pain, darkness, anger, despair and in some cases a sense of desperation.
