Feeling unhappy, disconnected, or unsure where your marriage is heading? Many midlife couples reach a point where communication breaks down, resentment builds, and the relationship starts to feel lonely. If you’re lying awake at 3:17 am thinking about your future, you don’t have to face this alone. Support can help you understand what’s happening between you and find a clearer way forward.
Alongside couples work, I also support individuals with anxiety, stress, self-esteem and relationship-related concerns.

Many of the couples and partners I work with feel like they’ve lost their way together. Arguments may repeat in familiar cycles, or silence has replaced communication. Some arrive in crisis — after betrayal or distance has grown — while others simply want to feel closer again but aren’t sure how.
My clients often describe feeling unheard, unseen, or caught in patterns they can’t shift, no matter how hard they try. Beneath the surface conflict, there’s usually a longing to reconnect, to understand each other better, and to feel emotionally safe again.

Do relationships feel like hard work instead of bringing you joy and being a "safe heaven"? Whether you’re single, dating or in a long-term relationship, you still may feel lonely, confused or stuck. And you start overthinking, feeling anxious, guilty or “not enough”. Maybe you keep arguing about “small things”, avoid intimacy or notice the same painful story repeating with different people.
But deep down, you long for calm, emotional safety and honest conversations – to feel close and wanted, and finally relax and be yourself without losing your independence

My hope is to create a therapeutic space for us to reflect upon what influences your experiences of the world and I hope to support you through any dilemmas you are experiencing.

I hold in mind intersectionality and how our similarities and differences influences our relationships.

Sometimes, you feel that you can talk to trusted family or friends. However, at this moment, a private, secluded space may be what you need because you feel depressed, low, anxious, scared, or hopeless because of a current situation or something that happened in previous relationships. As a result unwanted thoughts or images keep feeding overwhelming feelings and unwanted behaviours. These feelings, thoughts, and behaviours feel too difficult to understand, manage, or share with anyone, leaving you feeling alone or misunderstood.

Divorce Counsellors
How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.
What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioural, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioural therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.
When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.
How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
