COUPLES WEEKLY SESSIONS
60 minutes — £90
Face to face in Hassocks, West Sussex or online via Zoom
Artist: Susanna Bauer
Relationship health can be influenced by so many things — family history, childhood, finances, children, past hurts, partner betrayals, life transitions. Whatever has brought you here, we'll explore how these combined experiences are playing out in your relationship now.
This is deep, complex work. I hold two people, two life-stories and the relationship between them all at once — tracking patterns, making connections, and paying attention to what your nervous systems are telling us as much as your words.
Together we create a respectful space where difficult truths can be spoken courageously and heard compassionately — often for the first time.
THE PROCESS
Our first step is always an Initial Consultation — 60 minutes, £90 — to establish mutual fit before committing to ongoing work. From there we move into weekly sessions, held at the same time on the same day each week.
For couples wanting to work a bit faster, a Couples Intensive is also available as a next step.
“It is fair to say that counselling sessions with Michaela were the missing link between me and my girlfriend becoming an understanding and empathetic couple again. I am a much happier person and my relationship is now the strongest it’s been in over a year!”
