How Transformation Unfolds

Beyond Traditional Marriage Counselling

In nearly two decades of specialised practice, I’ve learned that navigating contemporary relationships requires more than conventional approaches. My work integrates understanding recurring patterns with exploring their deeper origins, creating conditions for genuine transformation rather than surface change.

How We Begin

Our initial sessions establish the foundation for deep therapeutic work. Rather than applying predetermined protocols, I listen carefully to understand your unique relationship dynamics, exploring both what brings you to therapy and what you’re seeking to create together.

This isn’t about years of analysis or quick behavioural fixes. Through focused exploration, we identify core patterns—both those that serve your relationship and those that undermine it. You’ll develop the capacity to recognise these dynamics as they emerge and understand their deeper origins.

The Therapeutic Relationship

I view couples therapy as a collaboration between two individuals and the relationship itself. Over time, your relationship gains its own voice—expressing what it needs, what’s been lost, and what’s possible to create.

In this space, partners move from seeing each other as obstacles to experiencing genuine connection. We create authentic dialogue where real meeting becomes possible—that transformative space between you where new possibilities emerge.

What Unfolds In Our Work

Deep Facilitated Dialogue Creating space for profound conversation without collapse into conflict—where each partner feels genuinely seen and heard, perhaps for the first time.

Pattern Recognition and Origin Understanding how early experiences shape current dynamics, not to dwell in the past but to transform present patterns.

Developing Relational Intelligence Building capacity to navigate complexity with awareness—understanding attachment patterns, managing emotional activation, and creating secure connection.

Meaning and Vision Moving beyond problem-solving to discover what truly matters in your relationship, creating a shared vision grounded in authentic connection rather than idealised expectations.

Working With Complexity

My extensive training and experience means we can address whatever challenges emerge—from betrayal and trust rebuilding to cultural differences, from sexual disconnection to relationship ambivalence. Every aspect of our work maintains absolute discretion while creating safety for genuine exploration.

Rather than striving for idealised perfection, we focus on creating authentic connection shaped by your unique circumstances, values, and aspirations.

The Journey Forward

Whether we meet at my Wimpole Street practice in London, connect via secure video internationally, or work intensively at select locations, the process remains focused on depth, understanding, and genuine transformation.

Each couple’s journey is unique. What remains consistent is my commitment to helping you navigate this territory with sophistication and clarity, developing the relational intelligence to create lasting change.
