Couples Therapy in Manchester and Online Across the UK
A space to understand what’s happening between you.
Couples therapy can help you step out of familiar patterns, communicate differently and begin to understand each other more clearly.
When relationships get stuck
Relationships can become difficult in ways that are hard to explain.
Often, it’s not just one issue, but a pattern that develops over time. You can both end up reacting to each other in ways that make sense, while somehow reinforcing the very thing you’re trying to resolve.
You might recognise some of this
The same arguments coming up again and again
Feeling unheard, misunderstood, or criticised
One of you withdrawing while the other tries to resolve things
Difficulty expressing what you’re really feeling
Feeling like you’re going round in circles without resolving anything
Understanding what happens between you
In couples therapy, the focus isn't on deciding who's right or wrong, or placing blame on either person. Instead, we'll try to understand what happens between you, the patterns you can find yourselves caught in and what might be sitting underneath them.
Often, both partners are reacting in ways that make sense from their own position, but those reactions can unintentionally keep the same cycle going.
By slowing things down, we can begin to understand what each of you is experiencing, communicate things that may have become difficult to say, and create space for something different to happen.
How we’ll work together
2 - We’ll decide how to begin
If we decide to work together, we can discuss what feels most helpful. This might mean beginning with joint sessions, or meeting with each of you individually first.
3 — Then we work together
Sessions are calm and balanced, with space for both of you to be heard. I won't take sides or decide who's right or wrong; we'll focus on understanding what's happening between you and what might help things begin to change.
1 - We’ll start with a consultation
We'll begin with a complimentary consultation of up to 30 minutes. It's a chance to understand what's been happening, what you're hoping for, and to check that I have the right skill set to support you.
