We can all struggle with our relationships, both sexually & emotionally, and talking about these problems can be particularly daunting.
Taking the first step to start therapy can be a very difficult one, so I make sure to provide an open, safe and calming space. During our time together I will aim to make you feel safe, validated and listened to. I use a combination of relational therapeutic work and real life tasks and exercises. To either undertake individually or with a partner/s.

Hi, I’m Ash, the founder of Sonder Therapies, based in Frome.
Deciding to reach out for support can be a difficult but significant step and Sonder Therapies was created with that in mind.
Sonder is the recognition that each person, from strangers on the street to loved ones in our lives, has a complex and meaningful story as vivid and complex as our own. This word captures my approach to therapy - a deep commitment to seeing you as a unique individual with your own experiences, dreams, and challenges. It is a reminder that healing often grows from understanding our connections to others and the world around us.

Having a fulfilling and lasting relationship is something we all aspire to, but it isn't always easy.

Sometimes, our life experiences have made it difficult for us to realise this potential. My job is to support you in making your relationship the one you really want. Please visit my website for more details.

This includes high-achieving professionals, creatives, and those navigating anxiety, burnout, trauma, relationship and attachment issues, identity or self-worth difficulties, and major life transitions.
Relational psychodynamic therapy is a talking therapy that is collaborative and invites you to be curious. Together we think about how your past relationships and early experiences may be shaping the way you feel, relate, cope and see yourself. We pay attention to not only what you think consciously but also to unconscious patterns and attachment processes

I work with Individuals seeking deeper personal transformation beyond traditional therapy; Highly reflective professionals navigating complex emotional or relational patterns and Couples ready to explore the deeper dynamics underlying conflict and disconnection.
Some things just need untangling.
You don't need all the answers to be ready for this work, just a sense that the same patterns keep showing up. The same conflicts, the same pull toward what hurts, the same fog after loss or betrayal. You wonder: why do I keep ending up here?
I'm not the kind of therapist who stays on the surface or walks on eggshells. I dig deep, at your pace, no fixed script. Whether this is your first time seeking support or you've been here before, you are in the right place.
Clients leave feeling "human" again. Not broken but clearer, with a real path forward.
Ready to stop circling? Let's untangle it together.

I have over 17 years of experience helping adults and couples.
Therapy offers insight and understanding helping you work towards an awareness of the self. It gives the opportunity to discover inbuilt defence mechanisms that perhaps no longer serve the person you have become as a result of the traumas we all experience in life. Counselling can be a quiet, safe space to breathe and think about your life. Who you are, where you are going and what you wish to gain. It can be a space to grieve the losses you have experienced in your life and the changes that happen throughout your life.

Couples Counselling Counsellors
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.
