I truly believe love, and the feeling of love can last a lifetime between two people who are committed to each other, have a mutual spiritual journey together, and who respect each other deeply.
Love, life-long committed partnerships and helping more people to stay happily married is a personal objective or mine. When two people are really in love with each other, they are so much happier, they have greater clarity, are happier at work and in every other area of life, and they are more accepting of themselves and of others too. Their hearts are open to life.
Sadly, many people fail to find their lifelong partner, and this can bring about constant frustration and dissatisfaction in their lives. The other end of the spectrum is many couples stay together because change would be difficult, they are not in love but they stay together.
One of my key objectives as a coach and therapist is to work with individuals or couples who may be 'in trouble' in their relationship, individuals who are single who are looking to find their lifelong partner, but also individuals who are looking to enhance their marriage or relationship.
So many books have been written on relationships attempting to 'make simple' or giving 'how to methodical answers' to loving relationships. Most of the books attempting this feat, although they raise awareness, usually miss the mark in my experience of working with people. The reality is… if you are fortunate enough to experience true or deep love, it is highly likely that it will push your deepest emotional fears and wounds.
When we love someone deeply, we become very close to that person. However, it is here that 'our emotional stuff' surfaces. This can be viewed as an opportunity if both partners are emotionally self-aware, and committed to each other and their process, for this is where real depth and intimacy will grow from. However, sadly, more often than not it is this 'emotional stuff' that drives couples apart. For this reason, for life-long love to last 'emotional compatibility' is a prerequisite for relationship success, even more so than marriage vows.
We all have deeply personal, emotional needs. Some people are more conscious of their emotional needs than others. But more importantly, from working with many people I can tell you that men’s emotional needs are almost always opposite to women’s. This is one of the reasons conflict arises in relationships. However, fundamentally, these opposite needs offer a beautiful opportunity to build understanding - as love flows directly out of mutual respect for each other.
In relationships, everything should revolve around the issue of care. And going that extra mile to ensure your partner feels cared about. Early on in relationships and in marriages this often happens without question, but the reality is… care with an exceptional level of effort should remain daily, for life. Touching the heart of your partner is what it is all about, for love to remain.
There will probably be nothing as important as finding your spiritual partner, and nurturing each other throughout life. However, often people need expert help to either resolve issues, or to simply build and enhance their relationship or marriage.
I use a combination of coaching, counselling, psychotherapy and EFT techniques when working with couples or individuals. I can work over the telephone or face-to-face with you as a couple, or individually.
Below are just some of the issues I can work with:

Take an honest look at where you are on 'The Medicine Wheel of a Committed, Loving Relationship' above. Use the centre of the wheel as a zero and the outer point of each spoke as a 10. Now, put a small cross as to where you feel you are at the moment on each spoke and then join up the crosses to get a sense of how fulfilled you are in your relationship.
By doing this exercise you will gain a clearer picture of how fulfilled you are in your relationship, and also where you can work, to improve it. Or, what you may be looking for in a prospective partner.
