Couples Counselling in Saint Helens
I have a keen interest in Couples Therapy and generalised anxiety.
Being able to connect and have meaningful engagement is an important part of our lives. We can often find times through life that we struggle to make sense of who we are, and how we fit in. We may face challenges whilst navigating events in our lives we did not expect or anticipate. Therapy can assist you to be more robust and adaptive to changes whilst being more accepting of yourself.
I'm Sarah a psychotherapist with 15 year's experience working with adolescent, adults, and couples. I am skilled working with presentations of generalised anxiety disorder, social anxiety, OCD, PTSD, panic, health anxiety and phobias.

I offer individual, couples and family work with children, young people, adults and/or the wider family network.
Life can be challenging and at times our problems and difficulties can overwhelm us. Sometimes we can find it difficult to make sense out of the situations we are in or feelings we may be experiencing. In these times we may need additional support to process the past and work on the present and the future

I help clients build emotional resilience, heal from past wounds, and improve relationships to create lasting change.
Lasting change happens when we stop fighting our emotions and start understanding them. Are you struggling with anxiety, unresolved trauma, or mood that feels heavy? You might be functioning well on the surface, but underneath, you’re exhausted by patterns that no longer serve you. I believe that while you are the expert in your own life, everyone needs a guide to help navigate the fog. Together, we can work toward a genuine reconnection with your ideal self and create the lasting change you deserve.

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.
