Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
Each partnership is unique and all relationships experience problems at some point. Although you can work on relationship struggles as an individual in therapy (and this can be helpful if you are preparing to leave a partnership) the greatest changes occur when you both commit to working through your concerns. It is helpful to think of a relationship as an entity that is created by both partners and needs to be nurtured and attended to. If you are both committed to continuing the relationship, instead of focusing too much on the past events that have brought you to this point, we will look at rebuilding friendship, learning positive relationship skills, and recognising and changing destructive behaviours and habits.

Will Salter - Connected Man Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, ACA member, L2 IFS trained, Diploma of Counselling
My focus is on supporting men as they work through stress, anger, disconnection, and self-doubt. By encouraging honesty, vulnerability, and emotional clarity, I provide a safe and non-judgmental space to explore the challenges that show up in relationships, work, fatherhood, or identity. Counselling here isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s about guiding you back into connection: with yourself, your core values, and the people who matter most, so you can move forward with greater clarity and purpose. I see counselling as a collaborative and creative process, shaped by the needs and direction of each person I work with. My role is to offer steady support while creating room for healing, growth, and meaningful change. Ultimately, my aim is to help you deepen your relationship with yourself, others, and the world around you.

Relationships can be tough, even when there’s love. Whether you're struggling with communication, trust, or feeling disconnected, we’ll uncover the deeper patterns at play and create space for real understanding and change. This isn’t about blaming or fixing, it’s about learning, growing, and building a relationship that truly works for you. If you're ready to shift old dynamics and reconnect, let’s talk.

Registered Psychotherapist, MA psych, Dip SW
Relationship and Marriage Guidance:
Relationships fail for predictable reasons. Poor communication, unmet needs, resentment that builds over years—but underneath that, there's usually something deeper. Patterns you both brought into the relationship that are now colliding.
Maybe you're repeating what you saw growing up. Maybe you shut down when things get intense, or you push when your partner pulls away. These aren't character flaws—they're survival patterns that made sense once but don't work now.
I work with couples to understand what's actually happening underneath the fights about dishes or money or sex. What are you each protecting? What do you each need that you're not getting? And more importantly—can you actually give each other what's needed, or are you fundamentally mismatched?
Sometimes the work is about saving the relationship. Sometimes it's about understanding why it can't work so you can both move forward with clarity instead of bitterness. Either way, we're after the truth, not false hope.
I also work with individuals on relationship patterns—why you keep choosing the same type of person, why intimacy feels dangerous, why you sabotage good things. Understanding your patterns means you can actually change them.
