We're here to help with couples therapy

We can all experience difficulties in our relationships from time to time.

When we feel stuck with conflicts, misunderstandings or other problems and can’t find a way out of this ourselves, then we need some help. Couples therapy will give you a safe and protected setting where you can work with your therapist to explore your situation, and find new ways of thinking about and resolving the problems you and your partner are experiencing.

How can couples therapy help me with my relationship?

At Tavistock Relationships we provide regular weekly sessions which will offer you a chance to explore some of the issues that may be concerning you.

The first step is an initial consultation with one of our therapists who will think with you about what is worrying you, and help you to find new ways of understanding and making sense of your difficulties.

You can choose to come with your partner or on your own. At your first meeting with us, you will be able to talk through any concerns and ask any questions you might have about what coming to therapy will entail.

If you and your therapist decide that ongoing couple therapy is likely to be helpful for you, we will offer you a regular weekly appointment with a therapist matched with your needs.

How to book a couples therapy appointment

We offer in-person (at our City of London location) and online relationship therapy.

 There are two ways of booking a consultation:

  • Direct Booking Service – Our fixed fee service. Book directly with one of our therapists, with the option of continuing to see that therapist for ongoing therapy at that day and time.
  • Main Clinical Booking Service – Pay what you can afford service. Book an initial consultation with one of our therapists and then you will be allocated to a suitable ongoing therapist if sessions are agreed.

We can offer subsidised therapy to a limited number of people, who otherwise would not be able to access therapy.  Read about our low fee services.
