Relationship and Couples Counselling Winchester

**Immediate availability for 3 new clients**
My name is Elinor and I am a qualified Relationship and Psychosexual Therapist. I work with both individuals experiencing personal, family and wider life difficulties and also with couples experiencing relationship and sexual difficulties.

I specialise in:
- helping individual clients going through divorce or challenging life circumstances to feel more empowered, repair their self esteem, and learn to love themselves again

- helping men and women struggling with sexual difficulties to get their spark back and enjoy their sex life again

- helping couples reconnect, improve communication and have fun in their relationship once more

I am based in Hampshire but work remotely 100% of the time via Zoom, and am only accepting referrals for clients looking for online therapy. I find online sessions are very effective due to the higher attendance rate and means that clients aren't limited by location when choosing a suitable therapist.

I offer several ways of working:

Long and short term therapy for couples and individuals (approx 8-25 sessions on average)
One-off sessions for a quick blast of professional guidance
The Love Happy Live Free Relationship Coaching programme for couples to change negative cycles and improve communication and connection

I work with everyone whether they are married, single, in a long term relationship, in an open relationship or something else! I celebrate the potential of all types of relationships and welcome clients of all sexual, gender and relationship diversities. I focus on the patterns and dynamics of your relationship and try to understand what has led to some of these issues occurring, without looking to blame or shame.

I see clients for a wide range of reasons, which may include:

Losing the spark in their relationship
Poor self esteem or body image
Loving their partner but not being 'in love' anymore
Struggles with low libido/ not feeling much sexual desire for their partner
Infidelity, affairs and trust issues
Communication difficulties and arguments
Reconnecting as a couple
Support during divorce or relationship breakdown
Fertility issues
Sexual and intimacy difficulties including unreliable erections, male and female low desire, pain, and ejaculation difficulties
Exploring your sexuality or gender identity
Difficulties dating or maintaining relationships
Support after sexual trauma/abuse

I have over 15 years of experience working and volunteering in mental health services, including the NHS, Relate, The Tavistock Centre for Couple Relationships and as a School Counsellor. I am fully insured and a member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) and the College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists (COSRT). I offer a compassionate, open minded, sex positive and professional approach, based on Systemic, Psychodynamic and CBT principles and the latest psychosexual therapy research.

I offer a 15 minute free consultation so please do contact me to arrange this, during which I would be happy to discuss my fee options.

Online therapy

I offer online therapy via Zoom, or Facetime if preferred. Online therapy is very similar to face to face therapy, and I have found that many clients find that it fits better into their other life commitments than attending face to face.

Please feel free to ask any questions or discuss any concerns you might have about starting online counselling.
