Couples Psychotherapy

In-Person or Online

I work with couples who want to:

  • Strengthen their connection

  • Improve communication

  • Break out of painful patterns that keep repeating

    In therapy, we focus on:

  • Understanding each partner’s emotional experience

  • Identifying the dynamics that lead to conflict or distance

  • Building healthier ways of relating to one another

    I help couples navigate issues such as:

  • Trust

  • Intimacy

  • Resentment

  • Life transitions

  • Separation and co-parenting

  • Neurodivergence

  • Differing needs or expectations

My approach to couples therapy is collaborative, relational and grounded in practices such as the Gottman Method. I help couples understand the patterns they get stuck in and the underlying emotions and needs driving conflict, rather than focusing on blame or ‘winning’ arguments. Therapy is a space to slow things down, strengthen emotional connection and build more effective ways of communicating.

Drawing from Gottman interventions and my doctoral training, I support couples in improving conflict management, increasing emotional responsiveness and strengthening trust, intimacy and repair. These tools are integrated thoughtfully and tailored to each couple’s unique history and context. My goal is to create a balanced, non-judgmental space where both partners feel heard and supported.

My Approach

IN-PERSON PSYCHOTHERAPY

For in-person sessions, we’ll meet at a mutually convenient time in my welcoming, comfortable therapy office. This space is designed to put you at ease, offering privacy and a calm environment where you can focus on our work together. There is also a friendly receptionist and waiting area.

LOCATION: Marylebone, London, W1H

ONLINE PSYCHOTHERAPY

During an online therapy session, we’ll connect via the secure video conferencing platform Microsoft Teams. You do not need to download any software ahead of time, just ensure you are in a quiet and comfortable place where you will not be disturbed.

FAQs

  • Family or couple session: £225

  • If you are self-paying, first sessions must be paid in full at least 48 hours in advance of your session start time. After the first session, invoices are sent at the end of each month.

  • The length of therapy varies from couple to couple. Some may find they only need a few months of sessions while others may benefit from longer-term support. The length of therapy depends on the challenges you're working through and what you would like to get out of our work together. We can regularly review this and adjust as needed.

  • Sessions last 50 minutes from the starting time agreed.

  • If you are unable to attend your session, please provide at least 48 hours notice from the starting time of the session to avoid incurring the cost of the session.
