Dating and relationships are becoming increasingly complex and challenging with each passing year.
In today's fast-paced world dominated by social media, dating apps, and unrestricted travel, finding meaningful connections has never been more confusing and uncertain. Navigating through problematic and toxic behaviour has become more complex than ever, and the pressure to meet the often unrealistic standards set by influencers and people in the social spotlight is at an all-time high, but there is hope.
Within this complexity lies an opportunity for personal growth, self-discovery, and genuine connections.
With over 17 years of invaluable experience and insights into relationships, combined with extensive training in psychology and coaching, I'll help you unravel the intricate layers of modern dating and relationships. I aim to equip you with the necessary skills to successfully navigate this complex landscape and present yourself with confidence and authenticity.
If you are already in a relationship, you are likely aware that these challenges do not disappear once you find someone. A whole new set of fears, insecurities, and obstacles can arise, leading to anxiety and potentially problematic behaviour. It is not uncommon to experience a lack of intimacy or boundaries, which can gradually erode the safety and security within the relationship. This can ultimately result in emotional distance, unfulfillment, and, in the worst-case scenario, the complete failure of the relationship.
I'm here to support you in overcoming these challenges together. By identifying your needs and establishing healthy boundaries, we can work towards restoring effortless communication and developing effective strategies for success. I aim to transform your suffering into a place of complete fulfilment, understanding, and mutual respect.
Through my unique combination of expertise, experience, and empathy, I'm dedicated to helping you navigate the complexities of modern dating and relationships. Together, we can unlock the potential for genuine connections, personal growth, and lasting happiness in your journey.

If you're in a relationship.
Relationships are complex arrangements between two forever-changing and evolving people. They are based on a range of factors we too often need to consider during the dating phase but don't.

Do I coach men or women?
Short answer? Both.
We all have our own unique sets of problems when dating or building relationships. Both men and women struggle with often very different challenges as well as some common obstacles, the key is understanding our differences and developing healthy strategies to identify and manage issues as they come up.
For men, I can provide specific support, understanding and perspective around the most common areas we face. I'll help you develop the confidence to approach women at the right time, in the right way. You'll better understand your own emotions and women's signals and cues, express a healthy amount of vulnerability, be independent, recognised for who you are and what you have to offer. You'll be able to communicate your needs around loyalty, support and trust with healthy expectations and a balance of emotional and physical intimacy.
For women, I can help you create a strong emotional connection. We set healthy expectations around respect and appreciation, security and trust, independence and autonomy, effective communication, boundaries and equity or equality. I'll ensure you can navigate the complex emotions that result from feeling undervalued, taken for granted or abused. I can help you process unmet needs and decipher mixed signals from a male perspective, working with you to better understand men and why we do what we do.
That's not to say that these are the only problems we face, but regardless of the challenges in your dating or relationships, I'm here to support you and make the changes needed to succeed.
Level-up in your friendships.
How do you define the word relationship?
Relationships are defined as 'the way in which two or more people or things are connected'.'
It's the way we relate to others, and covers not only our intimate relationships, but also the friendships we make or maintain with the people around us.
Our success in many areas of life is often heavily influenced by these people and it makes sense that we are not only selective about who we let into our lives, but that we treat them with care and respect while setting healthy boundaries.
If you're struggling to make friends, navigating change or toxic behaviour in friendships, I'm here to help.
In existing friendships, I can help you:
