I help couples to explore their relationship, to resolve differences and to enjoy a fulfilling partnership. I also work with individuals whose partners may be unwilling to attend counselling with them, and with people who may not currently be in a relationship, but who want to better understand themselves and how they relate to others.
I am a qualified Relate-trained counsellor. (I hold Relate’s Graduate Certificate in Couple Counselling.) I have worked as a broadcaster, specialising in relationships, for the BBC, ITV, Channel 5 and national and local radio. I am the author of several sex and relationship books, published in the UK, USA and Europe:
· How Have Great Sex for the Rest of Your Life (Piatkus)
· Tantra: The Art of Mind-blowing Sex (Vermilion)
· The Breast Cancer Book (Vermilion)
· The Real Sex Kitten’s Handbook (Quadrille)
More details are on my Books page.
If you've come to this site you're probably considering couples counselling, or need a marriage guidance counsellor. I provide a confidential relationship counselling service for couples in the areas of Richmond, Kingston-upon-Thames, Elmbridge, Surrey and South West London. My counselling practice is based in East Molesey, by Hampton Court in Surrey. Take a look at the rest of this site to discover how I can help you build a more satisfying marriage or partnership.

You make an appointment for an initial one-hour assessment session. This gives us the opportunity to establish your goals for the counselling, for me to explain in detail how I work, and to confirm that we are able to work together. If I think you would benefit from seeing another specialist, I will say so.
Regular follow up sessions, which also last for an hour, are usually spaced a week apart and enable us to fully address your relationship issues.
See my Counselling page for more information and details of my fees.
By car, my practice is only a short journey from any of the following places in North Surrey, Middlesex or South-West London: Esher, Claygate, Kingston Upon Thames, New Malden, Surbiton, Teddington, Hampton and Hampton Wick, Twickenham, Wimbledon, East and West Molesey, Thames Ditton, Walton on Thames, Oxshott, Richmond, Clapham, Wandsworth and Putney Vale, Cobham and Guildford. Hampton Court railway station is just 5 minutes’ walk away.
