She works from Emotionally Focused Therapy and from the Gottman Method, and she is open about how she approaches a session before you book.

How I work

I draw on the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy. Early on we agree what you each want from sessions, then we work on one conversation at a time, so you leave with something you can try at home.

Areas of focus

  • Premarital sessions

    Talking through money, family, children and roles before you commit.

  • Deciding whether to stay

    A short, structured set of sessions for partners who are unsure.

  • Blended families

    Making room for two households, old routines and new ones.

  • Life changes together

    A move, a job, a new baby or an empty house, and what it asks of each of you.
