About me

You care deeply about your relationship, and you’re ready for something to change.

I’m Bella, a relationship counsellor and coach. I work with people who find themselves overthinking their relationship, feeling disconnected, getting caught in the same patterns, or longing to feel more secure and at ease in a relationship that matters deeply to them.

Often, the people who come to me are ready to work on things, while their partner isn’t.

You don’t have to wait for your partner before you begin.

My approach is practical, warm, and forward-looking. We’ll explore what’s happening while focusing on where you want to be, what you can influence, and what could begin to make a meaningful difference.

Love Catalyst – a journey designed around you
Love Catalyst is a personalised three-month journey designed around what you want to be different in your relationship.

There isn’t one standard programme that everyone follows.

We begin with an initial 50-minute session to understand what’s happening, what you would like to be different, and where change may be possible.

After that session, I’ll create a personalised three-month journey around what you want to change, what we’ve discovered together, and where I believe our work could make the greatest difference.

You can then decide whether you’d like to take that journey with me.

The initial session is £48, with no obligation to continue.

What happens during Love Catalyst?
Love Catalyst includes six 50-minute sessions, usually every two weeks, with small personalised experiments between sessions.

Explore → Try something different → Notice what happens → Adjust → Build on what works

Depending on what you bring, we might focus on recurring patterns, feeling more secure, communicating differently, reconnecting, responding differently to conflict, or finding practical ways forward when you feel stuck.

Together, we’ll explore your Love Blueprint, looking at patterns around connection, distance, and protection in your particular relationship.

Between sessions, you’ll try small changes in everyday life. We’ll use what you notice to shape what we explore or try next.

You’ll also have access to our Connection Toolkit, a curated collection of practical relationship resources, with personalised recommendations along the way.

The aim isn’t simply to understand your relationship better. It’s to begin experiencing something different within it and discover what genuinely helps you.

My approach
My work is primarily solution-focused and centred around the changes you want to create.

Where helpful, I also draw on attachment theory, Gottman relationship research and other evidence-informed relationship approaches. We can explore difficult experiences when they matter while continuing to look towards where you want to go from here.

If your partner isn’t ready
You can still begin.

We will explore what happens when things become difficult and what you can influence from your side. When one person begins responding differently to familiar patterns, the interaction between two people often begins to change too.

If you’re both ready
If you both want to work on your relationship, we usually recommend coming together.

We also offer 2:2 couples work with two practitioners – my husband, Roman, a life coach, and me – giving both partners space to be heard and actively involved in creating the relationship you want.

What clients have said about working with me
“My relationship with my partner has never been better.”

“After working with Bella, I feel like I have my life back. I’ve never felt this peaceful within myself or my relationships.”

“Bella’s ability to listen without judgement, combined with the practical tools and strategies she offered, helped me make meaningful changes in both my relationship and family life.”

Your first step
You don’t have to decide now whether you want to commit to three months.

Start with one 50-minute session for £48.

We’ll explore where you are, what you want to be different, and where change is  possible.

If Love Catalyst feels like a good fit, I’ll create your personalised three-month journey, showing the areas I suggest we focus on and how our work could unfold.

You can then decide whether you want to continue. There is no obligation to do so.

Investment
Love Catalyst – £598 for the complete three-month journey.

Pay in full or across three monthly payments.

A limited number of supported-fee places are available.

Key details

Wheelchair user access
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.

Wheelchair user access available in Kirkcaldy, not in Dalkeith.
