Making sense of life and our relationships can be challenging at times.
Exploring these kinds of questions and how they affect you (and maybe your partner too) in a respectful, confidential and compassionate environment with a skilled professional can be both transformative and deeply healing. I am both trained and skilled at helping people explore these questions to find their way to a more peaceful way of living.

I’m a psychotherapist in Nantwich, working with individuals living with anxiety, burnout and a relentless inner critic, and with couples who’ve drifted into feeling more like flatmates than partners.
With individuals I work using Integrative Transactional Analysis, looking gently at the patterns we built early in life. With couples I use Imago Relationship Therapy, an approach built specifically for long-term relationships: for the slow drift, the same argument on a loop, or trying to rebuild after an affair.

I work with couples, and parents who are struggling with the behaviour of their children, particularly aggression or other risky behaviours.
I use a mixture of models to work with couples, parents and families, particularly emotionally focused therapy techniques (EFT) with couples and non-violent resistance (NVR), which is a brilliant approach to reducing conflict and aggression in families. I also offer video interaction guidance (VIG) to help to increase nurturing aspects of relationships.

I've ran my own practice since 2018 working with adults, young people, couples and families who have come to counselling for a variety of different reasons. Alongside this I have had 5 years loss and grief experience working within a Hospice which involved working with pre and post bereavement, supporting patients, relatives and bereaved clients.

I offer brief & longer-term therapy to individuals & couples in a safe & comfortable space.
The encounter between client & myself is central to my work. It is where individual patterns that often go unnoticed outside of therapy, can appear more vividly & thus be felt & understood differently. With new awareness & experiences in therapy, expansion of choice range & capacity to tolerate uncertainty becomes possible. It is key to interconnected growth

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.
