You work hard and are very caring but there are problems in your relationship you just don’t know how to overcome no matter how hard you try. It’s frustrating and disheartening!

But you’re not ready to give up because you know that things can be different. And you’re right!

There are hidden underlying causes for why you have the same argument over and over again, trigger each other until one of you threatens to break up or why one of you might struggle with doubts, insecurity or anxiety in your relationship.

These hidden root causes are difficult to identify when you are stuck in the middle of it all. That’s where I come in!

Identifying root causes, hidden patterns and triggers as well as unhealthy relationship habits that feel ‘normal’ is key to minimising conflict, repairing relationship ruptures, bringing back harmony, fun and laughter and establishing a deeper connection that leads to more intimacy on all levels.

This is possible for you no matter which of the following you struggle with:

  • having doubts about whether you should stay in your relationship or whether it’s time to leave and move on
  • worrying that your relationship is unhealthy and wanting to find out if it can be fixed
  • something just feels off but you can’t put your finger on it
  • struggling with recurring arguments, drama conflict that gets out of hand because you get too triggered and say things you later on regret
  • having an anxious or avoidant attachment style that stops you from feeling settled, secure and in love in your relationship
  • struggling with a lack of connection, closeness, emotional depth, intimacy and sex
  • feeling stuck in old or harmful patterns and dynamics i.e. one of you parents the other or is highly critical
  • you need to heal, repair ruptures and learn to trust and love again

Is This What It Should Be Like?

Relationship Therapy in Burton-on-Trent

So many of my clients wonder whether their relationship is how it should be.

Is it healthy? Is it normal? Or is there something not right about it? Because something just feels off … but they can’t quite put their finger on it.

Or they can but they don’t know what to do about it …

I will be able to not only help you figure it out but I will also co-create a plan of action for how you can make your relationship more of how you want it to be.

There are tried and tested practices that I will teach you so that you can turn your relationship into a success story.

Can We Fix This?

Maybe you’re having the same argument over and over again but nothing improves and changes.

Maybe you can’t agree on how to spend your money, how often you have to see your in-laws or how you parent and divided up your household chores.

Maybe one of you cheated and you don’t know whether you can move forward or what to do to fix it and re-build the trust in the relationship.

Maybe there’s another challenge that affects your relationship negatively like a gambling problem, feeling overly anxious and unable to have fun, not wanting to have sex or being a workaholic.

Whatever relationship challenge you’re facing, I am here to support you through it. I will help you to identify the underlying causes of your problems and we will try out different strategies to find the perfect solution for you and your partner.

Should I Stay Or Should I Go?

Couples Counselling Burton upon Trent

Having doubts about your relationship is hard. It’s painful. It’s worrying. It can keep you up at night. It can make you feel guilty and bad about yourself.

Because maybe your relationship is ok but it still doesn’t feel right for you.

Maybe your partner is nice but just doesn’t do it for you.

Maybe you’re wondering if this is it and whether you should be more grateful.

But maybe, you’re in a relationship that doesn’t feel safe, respectful or loving and you want out.

I specialise in helping you figure out whether you want to stay or go and what to do if you want to stay but how to leave if you choose to go.

Whatever your choice, there is a method for leaving that eliminates unnecessary drama and conflict while helping you heal, find closure and move on with confidence.

I Need Closure After A Breakup

The best way to get through a breakup is with professional help because the targeted support stops you from overthinking, blaming yourself and spiralling.

I will help you find closure no matter how your relationship ended, feel less lost in your life and come up with your Breakup Breakthrough Plan that allows you to take charge of this process while healing at the deepest emotional level.

This is a process I have guided hundreds of clients through and while the starting point is painful, I can promise you that by the end of our time together you will feel more confident, empowered and attractive than ever before!

Why Am I So Anxious In My Relationship?

Anxious Attachment Counselling in Burton

Some relationship dynamics make us more anxious (or avoidant!) and we begin to create an unhealthy pattern that leaves us feeling disconnected, alone and unsettled.

Some people struggle with an anxious attachment style even when their partner is kind, reassuring and affectionate.

But feeling anxious in your relationship and worrying about whether your partner will leave you has a negative impact on you and your relationship.

I specialise in helping my clients become less anxious and feel less insecure and paranoid so that they can relax into the relationship, feel good about themselves and finally feel loved.

Book your session if you’re ready for your relationship healing journey.

I Am Heartbroken

Maybe you want to prepare yourself for leaving a relationship and want a plan that works for you and that eliminates guilt, regret and drama.

Maybe you are going through a breakup and want support with making it the recovery period as painless, drama-free, straight forward and fast as possible. 

Maybe haven’t processed a past breakup and feel ready now to get full closure.

Maybe you experienced childhood trauma and want to let go of the past and the pain once and for all.

Healing heartbreak is possible at any age and at any stage in life. The way we do it will be based on what works best for you and what feels within your control so that it never interrupts your daily life or feels too much for you.
