You’ve just had the same argument for the 100th time. He needs space again - but that makes things so much worse for you. She’s constantly on your case - it’s like you can’t get anything right with her. You try to reconnect—but every attempt seems to end in confusion or conflict. Eventually, you both move on but nothing feels resolved. The tension lingers. You're walking on eggshells now. Resentment builds. This feeling absolutely sucks. I’m glad you’re here. And I hope you reach out.

Background

Peter is a couples therapy specialist. He is a gifted practitioner of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), a powerful approach that has helped countless couples restore secure, loving connections. In therapy, it's important that you both feel heard, not judged. There are no bad guys, and we’re all on the same side (even if it doesn’t feel that way right now!).

Your therapeutic experience with me

In therapy, Peter believes providing effective psychotherapy that leads to meaningful and lasting change. He is relentlessly empathetic, even with the parts of ourselves that we feel more ashamed of. He helps clients to feel safe to be honest, truly honest, with their most hidden thoughts and suppressed emotions. Peter listens carefully to what you say, and even more carefully to what you don't say out loud - so you can get clear on what’s going on inside, understand the good reasons for why you do the (sometimes unproductive) things you do, and then to make meaningful, lasting changes.
