Online Relationship Counselling · Kettering
Online relationship counselling for Kettering, by secure video. From a base in Hove I work with people across Kettering — from the town centre and the parish church to the streets around the parish church spire — with the same BACP-registered, confidential support as an in-person session, and no journey.
In and around Kettering
Life in Kettering
Kettering is a Northamptonshire market and former boot-and-shoe town that has grown with new housing and commuters. The mix of an older industrial identity and a fast-changing population can leave people feeling unsettled, and good local support is not always close by.
In a close-knit town where people tend to know one another, online keeps support entirely private, with nobody to pass in a waiting room.
Kettering is served by Kettering General Hospital, and the Weetabix cereal company has its main factory and headquarters in nearby Burton Latimer.
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.
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.

My online counselling sits alongside the help available locally. In Kettering, you can refer yourself directly to NHS Northamptonshire Talking Therapies for free NHS talking therapy, with no GP referral needed.
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.

Kettering questions
Yes. I work with people right across Kettering, from the town centre and the parish church outwards, and anywhere else in Midlands, by secure video — no need to travel to Hove, and just as confidential as meeting in the room.
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.
Yes. Online makes it easy for couples in different places, or juggling childcare, to attend together.
No. We look at the pattern the two of you create together and where it gets stuck, not at who is to blame.
A free fifteen-minute call is the simplest place to start — no obligation, just a chance to see if we are the right fit.
