Kintsugi : Japanese art of repairing broken pottery

This beautiful bowl was made by a client and gifted to me at the the end of therapy.

I offer support to couples navigating a range of relationship issues and am a Certified Sex Therapy Informed Professional with the Integrative Sex Therapy Institute.

Recent cases include relationship trauma (including infidelity, pornography, deception), death of child, estrangement, infertility, communications issues, reconciliation re-contracting, pre-commitment preparation, no-sex and low-sex relationships and managing amicable separation.

I also offer a Mother-Daughter programme.  Influenced by the Mother-Daughter Attachment Model, this looks at the difficulties that can be experienced at the various life-cycle stages and how to create a more meaningful, connected relationship, with healthier interactions.

Working with groups, I have supported families dealing with life-changing events, including coping with life-limiting illness, wishes and decisions around living wills, death, relocation, repair after rupture and mental health crises.

If you would like to find out more about how we can work together, then please email me to arrange a free telephone consultation, clare@thecourtyarcounsellor.com or complete the submissions form on the homepage.
