Samantha Coleman
Therapist, MBACP Prof Dip
Relationships can bring connection, love, meaning, and growth, but they can also become places of conflict, misunderstanding, distance, resentment, or pain. I work with individuals and couples to explore the deeper patterns affecting communication, trust, intimacy, attachment, and recurring conflict. My approach is relational, insightful, and grounded in helping people understand both themselves and each other more clearly.

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.

Lisa Hawkins-Jack
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LMSW
I honestly believe that even the best couples occasionally need to partake in relationship counseling, our partner is the one person that we take everything out on good and bad, and almost every couple that I have counseled, each individual feels like they’re doing 90% of the daily work in the household. It can be a wonderful gift for both of you to be able to talk to someone who can objectively see how both of you can unite and be stronger than you were before.

I have worked with many couples to help resolve problems and work towards a framework of getting needs met, and lowering the emotional temperature, allowing both to overcome challenges together, and grow.

Cardiff's identity as the Welsh capital creates a therapy culture shaped by Wales's distinct national identity — including a meaningful demand for Welsh-language therapy, particularly for clients who find expressing emotional complexity most natural in their first language. Cardiff University and Cardiff Metropolitan University maintain active clinical training programmes, and the city's large student population generates sustained demand for therapists addressing academic pressure, identity, and young adult transitions. Cardiff and Vale University Health Board provides NHS mental health services, with a private therapy community serving Pontcanna, Roath, and Cardiff Bay. The city's growing diversity, driven by university populations and recent immigration, is increasing demand for culturally affirming and multilingual therapists.
