Gottman Method Couples Therapists in Cheltenham, England

Life can feel hard. I’m dedicated to providing a safe, non-judgmental space for my clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. I often incorporate mindfulness techniques to support clients through challenging situations including grief, loss, abandonment, relationship issues, as well as anxiety and depression. If you're feeling stuck for any reason, I can offer a safe, holding space to listen to you and work with you to gently challenge how you think, feel and behave. I'll work at your pace and may use mindfulness or creative interventions to aid our work together, as well as grounding techniques to turn down any overwhelm or white noise. I also do 2-chair work to help with ways of communicating, as well as processing loss and bereavement.

Welcome! Therapy is my passion and I feel grateful to be able to help clients change their lives and feel happier. I truly believe that with diraction and understanding anyone can overcome their unique challenges. I integrate different approaches (including EMDR, Mindfulness, ACT, Attachment theory, etc.) to help clients develop coping skills, re-frame thinking and behavior and make changes in order to move past the problems and negative emotions. I am also relationship therapist and help couples in restoring loving, compassionate relationship and communication.

It takes courage to ask for help. I am aware of the enormous amount of pain people carry every day, everywhere and I feel compelled to reach out and help them tap into a more meaningful life, to teach them they have value, to help them gain an increased sense of control over their own life, to help them recognize their resilience and improve the quality of their relationships. We are all in this together.

At Psykhe Psychotherapy, we know life can feel overwhelming and hard to navigate alone. Whether you're facing relationship challenges, stress, trauma, or mental health concerns, we’re here to support you. Our work is grounded in evidence-based approaches and guided by empathy, helping you build tools and deepen self-understanding. We create a safe, welcoming space where you can explore, heal, and grow. If you're looking for compassionate, supportive care, we invite you to reach out.

I provide CBT, ACT, mindfulness, Compassion-Focused Therapy and counselling for various mental health difficulties, tailored according to your needs. This may include therapy for depression, anxiety, panic attacks, low self-esteem, OCD, trauma, PTSD, work-place conflict, stress/ burnout, anger problems, chronic pain, chronic fatigue, Post-Covid Syndrome (Long Covid) and Functional Neurological Disorders. I provide coaching for ADHD and addictions, and I'm trained in tailoring therapy sessions for autistic clients. I'm also trained in Gottman Method Couples Therapy for relationship problems.

Cheltenham is a Gloucestershire spa town known for its Regency architecture, the Cheltenham Festival horse racing meeting, a major literary festival, and as the home of GCHQ—the British intelligence and signals agency that employs thousands of highly vetted specialists in the area. The presence of GCHQ creates a distinctive and largely invisible mental health dynamic, as intelligence professionals face security restrictions that limit what they can discuss in therapy, and the stress of classified work and high-security employment creates specific confidentiality considerations for practitioners. Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust provides mental health services, and a well-developed private therapy sector serves the relatively affluent Cheltenham population. Common therapy concerns include high-security employment stress and confidentiality challenges, anxiety and relationship difficulties in a professional community under significant institutional pressure, and the more general concerns of an affluent market town with a strong sense of its own identity.
