Life in Bangor
Why people in Bangor reach out
Bangor is a seaside town on the County Down coast, a commuter base for Belfast with a tourism trade that quietens in winter. The strain of commuting, seasonal work and the legacy of the past all shape the pressures people here carry.
A seaside town can feel cut off once the season ends and the front goes quiet, so online support that does not depend on who happens to practise nearby matters here.
Bangor is the principal town of the Ards and North Down borough on the County Down coast and is served by the South Eastern HSC Trust.
The relationship counselling itself
Relationship counselling here, for couples or individuals, slows down the pattern you are caught in and builds healthier ways of hearing and being heard.
The approach is the same wherever you live, so rather than repeat it on every page you can read it in full — the methods, what each session covers and fees — on the main relationship counselling page and on how I work.
How online sessions work
Sessions run over a secure, encrypted video link held to the same strict BACP confidentiality as meeting in person. After a free fifteen-minute call to check we are a good fit, you join each session from any private space using a phone, tablet or laptop — no software to install, no waiting room and no journey at either end.

Finding support in Bangor
My online counselling sits alongside the help available locally. In Bangor, your GP can refer you to talking therapies and counselling through Health and Social Care. You can find support through Lifeline, Northern Ireland's crisis helpline, free on 0808 808 8000.
Private sessions with me usually mean you can start sooner and stay with the same counsellor throughout; I am glad to work alongside any NHS or GP support you already have.
Other local and national support verified for this area includes:
If you need urgent help now
This is not a crisis service. If anyone is in immediate danger call 999. For urgent mental health support, call Lifeline free on 0808 808 8000. Lifeline is free on 0808 808 8000, and the Samaritans are on 116 123.
Bangor questions
Online Relationship Counselling in Bangor: common questions
Can I get online relationship counselling if I live in Bangor?
Yes. I work with people right across Bangor, from the marina and the centre outwards, and anywhere else in Northern Ireland, by secure video — no need to travel to Hove, and just as confidential as meeting in the room.
Can I come on my own, without my partner?
Yes. A great deal can change when one person shifts the pattern; you do not need to attend as a couple to do useful work.
Can we join the session from different locations?
Yes. Online makes it easy for couples in different places, or juggling childcare, to attend together.
Will you take sides?
No. We look at the pattern the two of you create together and where it gets stuck, not at who is to blame.
