Relationship & Couples Therapy in North London
Support for couples ready to improve communication, resolve conflict, and rebuild connection
Sex and relationships are central to how we connect as human beings, yet when our expectations clash with reality, desire can fade, conflict can escalate, and feelings of frustration or loneliness can take over.
No relationship is immune to these challenges, and few of us are ever taught the skills required to make an intimate partnership succeed long-term.
Working with an impartial, non-judgmental therapist gives you and your partner(s) the space to step outside repetitive, unhelpful patterns of communication and behaviour, and to understand what's really driving them.
In a safe, confidential setting, couples therapy can help you to:
- Move past surface-level arguments to uncover the unmet needs, the couple’s developmental stage, the hidden and unconscious thoughts underneath them, and build a stronger sense of empathy between you
- Balance your own personal growth and autonomy with the strength of the bond you share
- Work through sexual concerns as a couple, including desire discrepancies or intimacy connected to psychological factors or physical health
- Gain practical, evidence-based tools for managing conflict, rebuilding trust, and restoring both physical and emotional intimacy for the long term
My approach draws on integrative, up-to-date relationship theory, grounded heavily in Gottman Method Couples Therapy, to help you understand your unique dynamic as a couple and find your own way toward the goals you share.
There are no quick fixes or magic wands in this work, but there is a clear, structured process that gives you both the clarity and tools to move forward together.
Who this can help
I work with couples in a wide range of circumstances, including:
- Long-standing couples wanting to realign expectations, process past hurts, and reignite connection after a difficult patch
- Couples moving in together, who want to proactively address potential friction points and build a solid foundation before cohabiting
- Couples navigating a change in intimacy or desire, whether recent or long-standing
- Couples who feel they've fallen into the same argument on repeat, without ever resolving what's underneath it
What to expect
Sessions last 50 minutes and take place weekly, in person or via Microsoft Teams.

- 1st & 2nd sessions — Joint assessment
- 3rd session — Individual assessment (one 50-minute session per partner, £50 each)
- 4th session — Joint assessment
- 5th session — Formulation and care plan
- 6th session onward — Ongoing therapy
Fees
£100 per session (individual assessment sessions £50 each).
Cancellations require 48 hours' notice, or the session fee remains payable.
Payment is accepted by cash, cheque or bank transfer.
