    Trish Mayne

    “My husband and I went for couples’ counselling with Trish when we felt like our relationship was in real difficulties. Trish is a friendly, relaxed, non judgmental professional who listened to both of us and provided a place where we could start to understand how and why things were not going well in our relationship. We gained understanding and how to use practical exercises and activities to help. Both of us would highly recommend this help, not only for the benefit of the relationship but also separately as individuals.”

We found the sessions really beneficial and Sara helped us approach things with a different perspective. She was a good listener and had some helpful tips and strategies on how to communicate better. She was very fair and remained professional at all times. We highly recommend Sara and know that we can use her services again if needed.”

    “My husband and I had couples counselling sessions with Dan, and we had a very positive experience. He is very straightforward and gets to the point, while giving practical advice and clear structure to help guide difficult conversations in a more constructive direction. Dan is professional, supportive, and also willing to challenge you when needed, which we found really valuable. We’ve been using some of the techniques he taught us outside the sessions, and we’ve already noticed an improvement in how we communicate with each other. I would definitely recommend Dan to couples who are looking for practical guidance and someone who can help them communicate more effectively.”

    “I found working with Sara very beneficial. I found her sessions to have a good balance of holding space to talk & offload whilst also allowing time for her to be directive, to ask me (us) helpful & insightful questions & to provide us with practical guidance & ideas of things to work on/'homework' for our relationship. I would definitely recommend working with Sara as she is warm & empathetic, whilst also able to be direct & to ask those probing questions that often need asking & need reflecting on”

    “Emma was a good facilitator in our relationship counselling. Keeping things moving in a safe space. It helped me to understand my husband more and for him to hear what I’d been saying to him for a long time, and the seriousness of the situation. Moving forward we were making it work. I don’t think we would be together without the help of Emma. Emma is kind, caring, easy to talk to, and understanding. I would highly recommend her for one to one or couples counselling.”

    “Emma is very gentle, kind and caring with her approach to counselling. She's a great listener and offered us good advice, in joint sessions and individually. We only stopped seeing her when we discovered that we needed to see a relationship counsellor who specialises in neurodivergent couples, after a new diagnosis. Emma was able to recommend a ND counsellor, which was very helpful.”

    “I went to see Mark with issues in my childhood affecting my marriage now. I have had counselling before. Each relating to a surgery. They have also bought up childhood issues but didn't really go deep enough. Mark has an easy way of explaining things so they're easy for me to break them down & understand the emotional effect they've had on me. Thankyou Mark”

She gave us practical tools and guidance that have helped us communicate better, understand each other, and move forward in a much more positive way.

    “Sabine is the very essence of what I feel a counsellor should be, she is compassionate, understanding, attentive and professional. There are no awkward silences, she encourages conversation and revelation with truth and honesty. I would highly recommend her services if you are genuinely looking for direction and support in your relationship. My wife and I have been navigating differences due to being different nationalities and how our cultural upbringing allows us to see the world through different eyes.”
