The complexity of maintaining intimacy or experiencing betrayal or simply feeling distant - can be resolved: From an existential perspective the mistake we make in life is thinking we have time.
Relationship therapy aims at regaining a 'couple state of mind' and can help untangle issues of sexual intimacy. As a COSRT member with specialist training my fees are £85 for individuals & £95 for couples for 50 minute sessions. Individual therapy is offered on a weekly basis only. Couples can choose weekly or bi-weekly (all exclude school holidays).

Hello, I'm Osian. I've been working in Mental Health for 10 years as a counsellor, supervisor and trainer. I support individuals and couples in-person and online through the medium of English and Welsh. Sometimes we go through distressing, difficult confusing experiences. Day-to-day life can become a bit of a struggle, even relationships become strained. In therapy we can better understand you and your life experiences. By exploring and untangling these difficulties it's possible to make sense of them. This can bring about positive changes where broader perspectives and a deeper understanding that can bring about greater clarity.

If you need to talk freely and feel completely heard, please keep reading. Talking openly to an active listener, and a complete stranger, can provide mental health relief, improve clarity, and develop self acceptance. We spend a lot of time in our own heads, often suppressing difficult thoughts or feeling like we're going round in circles. Speaking aloud can help to break the cycle.

I have helped clients with mild mental health issues such as general stress to higher needs such as schizophrenia and personality disorders. I would say my expertise lies mostly with anxiety, depression and self-esteem issues. I work with the clients goals in mind, at their own pace and ability. No two clients are the same and adjust my skills accordingly. Whether you’re looking for small changes in perspective, understanding or attitude, or you want a deeper more meaningful change in thinking, behaviour and habits I am willing to walk that journey with you.

I have trained as an integrative counsellor, and believe that therapy can help us evolve from surviving to thriving. I became a counsellor for many reasons, but fundamentally because of the powerful way in which counselling can help you take back control of your life story; tomorrow does not have to be like yesterday. I can offer you a calm space to explore what feels safe to you until you are ready and I will not make assumptions about the individual struggles you are going through. I work with the full belief that it is possible to find a way through your experiences and re-gain that sense of who you are.

Whatever you're going through in life counselling provides you with non-judgmental and empathic support. Being seen and heard goes a long way towards starting to feel better. Honest and open communication tends to bring insight and clarity. This promotes growth, which ultimately results in change and acceptance. Reflection can help to make long lasting positive changes to you, your relationships and your future. The space to unburden and review your coping strategies can improve confidence and self-worth. A confidential space also means there's no need to worry about the impact of opening up to those around you.

Infidelity Counsellors

How does therapy for infidelity work?

A skilled infidelity therapist will provide a safe space for clients to communicate their feelings and concerns. The goal is to be completely honest about what led to the cheating and how it has affected the entire family to prevent it from recurring in the future. The therapist will help the clients work on rebuilding mutual trust and respect and developing better communication and conflict-resolution skills. If the goal is to remain a couple, clients will learn the “danger signs” for their specific relationship, and they will make a renewed commitment to be faithful.

How long does therapy for infidelity take?

Recovery from infidelity can take time, and it can vary from person to person. Generally, a therapist will want to see the clients at least once a week for around six months. Then the sessions can be arranged as needed, depending on the clients’ individual needs. While therapy may end or shift to an as-needed basis, it can take up to two years or more for some clients to fully recover from infidelity.

How does therapy help the partner who was cheated on?

When a client discovers their partner’s infidelity, their trust in the relationship and in the life they had together may be shattered. They often experience mental health symptoms, such as anxiety, depression, grief, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). They don’t always want to stay in the relationship; they may feel ambivalent or may even want to leave. Therapy gives these clients a safe and healthy way to communicate all of their complicated emotions and concerns.

How does therapy help the partner who committed infidelity?

Infidelity often occurs when one or both partners’ emotional needs are not being met in the relationship. Therapy can help this client understand why they cheated and figure out how to address those unmet needs without resorting to infidelity in the future. This can lessen (but not entirely eliminate) the risk of repeated infidelity. Clients who cheat may also feel intense guilt about deceiving their partners, a sentiment that they can work through in therapy.
