Sometimes we talk, but don’t really hear each other. Over time, that can leave us feeling distant or misunderstood.

Counselling can be a space to pause, slow down, and find better ways of listening and responding. Even small shifts in communication can bring back trust, closeness, and connection.

We’re based locally in Looe Street, Plymouth, where you can chat to us in person, when you feel the time is right for you.

It can lead to frustration, pressure, or even looking outside the relationship. The truth is, it’s rarely about who’s “right” or “wrong” it’s about needs not being heard.

Counselling offers a space to talk openly about desire, boundaries and connection without blame.

If this feels familiar, you’re not alone and support is available.

Stepping outside, even for a short walk in nature is one of the easiest ways to help your mind calm down. Studies show that spending just 20 minutes connecting with nature can lower cortisol.

Of course, walking doesn’t have to be long or strenuous. A gentle stroll along the coast, through a green park, or up a wooded path can help you reset, shift perspective and reduce tension.

Plymouth’s surroundings (from the coast to Dartmoor) are perfect for this kind of breathing space.

We work within the BACP Ethical Framework, which sets the professional standards for counsellors across the UK.

It shapes everything we do, from how we protect your privacy to how we make ethical decisions and continue our professional development.

It’s our way of ensuring every session is grounded in safety, respect and integrity.
