Conflict resolution
It can be frustrating to try and solve problems the way that you know how, but it doesn’t get through to your partner. Together let’s work to improve communication and positively resolve the conflict (it is possible). The goal here is build the groundwork so you can more quickly solve things every time. Read more about some of the advanced approaches we’ll also use together.
Communication skills building
If you’re sick of feeling unheard by your partner (and them, vice versa) we can work on some easy changes you can make to immediately uplift your relationship communication. Let’s let look at being open in our communication, active listening and being empathic without sacrificing our needs. The goal is that you come out the other side with incredible skills in couple communication.
Increased connection and intimacy
A lot of us have the desire to feel closer to our partner - and have those feelings of intimacy we had in the early days - but aren’t quite sure even where to start. Let’s look at the roadblocks in the way of your intimacy so we can simplify things and get back to having that space for each other.
Counselling for parents
After the seismic shift of having young children, it can be challenging to maintain a healthy relationship amidst sleepless nights and daily demands. Let’s work together to make new agreements that work for you as a family so you can sort out the logistics and get back to a place of fun and intimacy. Even where your parenting styles differ.
Managing mid-life challenges together
Long term relationships don’t cease evolving, and mid-life brings particular challenges that can mean your normal ways of solving issues needs to also evolve. Together we can create new agreements around things like work-life balance in later career, caring for ageing parents, saying goodbye to your now-adult children and facing retirement considerations.
Working with neurodivergence in love
After a lifetime of masking your autism, ADHD or other neurodiversity, it can be exhausting trying to find your true inner voice and accept the way your brain works. Together let’s take a step back and explore your needs in a safe way that works for you. Then, together, you can find safety and acceptance.
Polyamory, Swinging and Ethical Non-Monogamy
Working with relationships or arrangements that include more than two people can present its own unique set of challenges. Conflict resolution and communication become all the more important, but usually the ways we structure that need some adapting. Let’s work together to create shared values and agreements that are fulfilling to all partners. Read more about how I can help you traverse swinging, or ethical non-monogamy/ polyamory.
Family dynamics
Many of us are aware we don’t want to bring our family history into the present but find it hard to work out how to create something different. Together we can be intentional about our family dynamics, how we decide on values together and build deep trust as parenting partners - even where our parenting styles differ.
Direction and purpose
If you have an idea of what your goals and dreams are, but suffer from procrastination or limiting self beliefs, we can work on this. Let’s define the best structure that works for you and put a plan in place to achieve what you desire for your life.
New couples: preventative maintenance
I encourage couples to reach out to me - even before anything can “go wrong” in the relationship. Let’s look at the agreements you are setting up now and how they can maintain your partnership into the future. Sometimes we need to challenge if we are being truly authentic to our needs but once we do, we remove roadblocks to building trust. Tips for young couples at my blog.
