I’m a relationships counsellor and systemic practitioner working with couples, families and individuals in Guildford.
I work relationally, looking at how patterns form between people and how they can begin to shift.
I have extensive experience working with couples navigating disconnection, parents and teenagers caught in escalating conflict, and women who find themselves carrying more than their share in relationships.
Many women become the quiet anchors in their families.
Holding things together. Noticing everything. Carrying more than they realise.
From the outside, they look capable.
Inside, something feels tired, stretched or quietly lost.
Our work starts there.
Meeting one-to-one, we gently trace the patterns and relationships shaping your life so you can return to yourself without disconnecting from the people you love.
Sometimes the problem isn’t a lack of love.
It’s the patterns you both get pulled into.
The same arguments repeat.
Conversations shut down.
Small hurts accumulate.
You start feeling alone, even beside each other.
Neither of you is the problem.
The pattern is.
So we work with what happens between you
so the pattern loosens
and you can find your way back to each other.
When family life feels tense or stuck, it’s rarely one person’s fault.
Everyone has been adapting, doing their best to keep things going.
But over time, those adaptations can turn into patterns that leave everyone feeling unheard or alone.
We work with the family as a whole.
Looking at what happens between you and gently shifting the patterns so home can feel safer, steadier and more connected again.
