Welcome to a wonderful new way of experiencing

Relationship Therapy

By incorporating the latest research in neuroscience, with an established and well validated relationship therapy, an exciting new relationship therapy, Tapping into Relationships – eft², has been created.

Offering Comprehensive

Relationship Support

Relationships can become particularly complex when challenges like Adult ADHD, AuDHD, and Attachment Trauma are present. These factors often intertwine, creating a unique mix of emotional and relational difficulties that require specialised, compassionate care. Through my Tapping into Relationships – eft² approach, I provide tailored, inclusive support that respects the unique dynamics of each partnership. Grounded in neuroscience and informed by somatic therapy, my process is designed to help couples foster deeper understanding, emotional healing, and meaningful connection.
