About me
You know something in your relationship needs to change – but you're not sure where to start.
Maybe you've tried talking about it, only to end up having the same conversation again. You find yourself wondering why you keep getting caught in the same patterns.
Or perhaps you're the one trying to make things better, while your partner seems much less concerned.
Maybe some of this sounds familiar:
"I'm tired of being the only one trying."
"My partner doesn't think there's a problem."
"But I still love them. So what can I do?"
You don't have to wait for your partner before you begin.
I'm Bella, a relationship counsellor and coach. I work with individuals and, alongside my husband, Roman, also coach couples together. This gives me a valuable perspective on the patterns that develop between partners, even when only one person comes for support.
Every relationship has its own dance. Perhaps the more you try to talk, the more your partner withdraws. And the more they withdraw, the harder you try. Sometimes we find ourselves repeating the same steps, even when they leave us feeling hurt, frustrated or disconnected.
Together, we'll explore what keeps that dance going and how your Love Blueprint – the experiences and expectations that shape how you relate – influences your responses.
There's space for difficult feelings, but also for those moments when things suddenly make sense. When you begin to see the dance differently, you can discover new steps to try.
My clients are often surprised by how much changes in their relationships when they begin making changes themselves.
“After working with Bella, I feel like I have my life back. I've never felt this peaceful within myself or my relationships.”
Start with a Relationship Roadmap – £38
One conversation. A clearer direction. A place to begin.
In our 50-minute session, we'll explore what's happening, what you'd most like to change and where you have influence.
Together, we'll begin to understand what's keeping you stuck and identify a practical next step.
There's no obligation to continue.

Season of Change
Focused counselling, one month at a time.
Sometimes one conversation helps you find your next step. Other times, you'd welcome someone alongside you as you begin making changes.
I usually work in seasons of around three months, giving our counselling direction while allowing change at your own pace.
Finding your focus: Understanding what's happening and what you'd like to be different.
Exploring and experimenting: making space for difficult feelings, exploring your Love Blueprint and trying new steps in your relationship.
Reflecting on progress: Noticing what's changed and deciding what comes next.
Three months is a framework, not a commitment. Some people need less time; others benefit from longer support.
“Bella has given me the tools to understand and to help me navigate my own thoughts when things get tough. Through this, it has also made a difference to my husband, and the way in which we communicate with each other has improved greatly.”
One month of relationship counselling – £148
Support that continues beyond our conversations.
Our sessions give us space to understand what's happening and work towards meaningful change. Between sessions, you'll have opportunities to put new understanding into practice and notice what happens.
Each month includes:
Two 50-minute counselling sessions
One optional written check-in between sessions
Personalised experiments to explore in everyday life
Carefully selected resources to support your progress
No three-month commitment. You decide at the end of each month whether you'd like to continue.
My aim is to help you grow in understanding and confidence, respond differently to relationship difficulties and discover what's possible for you and your relationships.
What if things could begin to change?
Maybe you've spent a long time wondering what else you can do, especially when your partner doesn't see things the same way.
You don't have to find all the answers on your own. And you don't have to wait for your partner to be ready.
