I only work Monday- Wednesday at present. My latest appointment time is 6pm.

As you and your partner work with me, I will :

• help you to reconnect with all that is positive in your relationship

• teach you a Imago dialogue, a simple tool which will help you to hear and understand your partner even when their perspective is very different to yours

• teach you how to express difficult things safely without criticism, blame or judgement

• help you identify the things that happen between you that get in the way of connecting with each other

• help you to work out what is really going on in those fights you just keep having and then to vulnerably communicate your needs to each other

• help you to understand why you react the way you do when you feel criticised or threatened and teach you new ways to respond that strengthen your relationship

Working with me you will gradually

• communicate more effectively

• understand each other more deeply

• emotionally reconnect

• heal old wounds

• rediscover love and joy in your relationship.

Does that feel too much to hope for right now? That’s ok, it is my job to hold the hope for you until you can hope in your relationship once more. It will not be easy to get there, it will take courage, vulnerability, and a willingness by both of you to stretch and grow into new behaviour but it absolutely is possible, and I will support you to get there.

If you think that I might be able to help you then email or give me a call on 07870917710.

You'll find a video on my website in which I explain what you can expect from an initial session with me but essentially we'll explore what is happening in your relationship in a really safe way that ensures that neither of you feels judged, criticised or blamed. We'll also talk about the changes you want to make through working together and I'll give you an initial experience of working with the Imago Dialogue process. Couples usually find that this is enough for them decided if they would feel comfortable working with me and whether the Imago approach has something to offer them.

My standard session lasts 90 minutes and I generally recommend that couples come fortnightly. I am happy to discuss different patterns of working if you don't think fortnightly 90 minutes sessions will work for you.
