For relationships

Relationship therapy is for anyone who wants to improve, understand, or navigate important relationships in their life. It is not only for romantic couples. Any relationship between two or more people can bring support, meaning, and joy, but it can also create tension, misunderstandings, and patterns that leave us feeling frustrated, disconnected, or unheard.

In my work, I draw on existential therapy principles to explore the dynamics that emerge between people. Often, conflict or frustration arises because we interpret others’ words and actions through the lens of our own past experiences, wounds, and assumptions. By examining these patterns together, we can begin to understand not just our own reactions but how they influence the other person and the relationship as a whole. This helps you communicate more clearly, set healthy boundaries, and respond intentionally rather than react automatically.

Relationship therapy can focus on a wide range of connections. For example, you might want to:

• Rebuild trust and communication with an adult child or parent

• Resolve ongoing tension with a sibling or extended family member

• Improve understanding and connection with a friend or neighbour

• Navigate challenges in professional relationships or team dynamics

• Explore the balance and boundaries in a blended or chosen family

A key part of this work is recognising that relationships are co-created. Both parties contribute to the patterns that develop over time, and therapy helps you identify your own role, explore your values and needs, and make conscious choices in how you interact with others. Together, we develop strategies to respond constructively, repair misunderstandings, and foster connections that are more authentic, supportive, and resilient.

Therapy can be short-term for specific challenges, longer-term for ongoing relational work, or even a single session for immediate insight and guidance. Relationship therapy is about helping you move from frustration or disconnection toward interactions that are meaningful, balanced, and respectful, while honouring the individuality of everyone involved.
