"We all, at some time, find ourselves in conflict or withdrawing from people we are in close relationship with. If left unresolved conflict can escalate or seep out in the form of emotional withdrawal, criticism and sarcasm. This can create further conflict and withdrawal. How we communicate our emotions is vital to building intimate or close social relationship between, couples, parents and children, friends and co-workers."

Family Therapy
Work with individuals
If it's all just too much - feel free to get in touch. If your issues are about your relationship with yourself as part of a family, that's my area of expertise. As individuals we often carry unresolved issues from the family we grew up in. This is the family “in our head” that we bring into adulthood. Sometimes the experiences and beliefs we grew up with negatively influence our current relationships. I will work with you to help understand and moderate those influences so you can create a family culture of choice.
Work with couples
I work with couples together to improve and develop good quality communication so that feelings, needs and expectations are clearly expressed and issues can be resolved. I welcome all couples and family groups.
Work with Families and Parents
I work with families to improve parenting relationships and to develop clear and agreed ways of creating a loving and more harmonious family life. Families frequently experience challenges at times of change, while some ages and stages of life are predictably tougher than others.
