Couples & relationship therapy in Saffron Walden

When couples therapy can help

Couples therapy can be incredibly beneficial when conversations seem to go in circles, when one or both partners feel unheard, or when there's still care for each other but uncertainty about how to move forward. 


Relationships can be both loving and painful. It’s common to have deep feelings for one another while also feeling trapped in repeated arguments, emotional distance, mistrust, resentment, or silence. 


I provide couples therapy and relationship therapy in Saffron Walden for partners seeking a thoughtful and supportive environment to explore what is happening between them and to discover a new path forward. 


Engaging in couples therapy can be especially helpful if you're facing challenges related to communication, conflict, trust, intimacy, emotional distance, parenting pressures, life transitions, affairs, separation decisions, or feeling stuck in a painful cycle. 


The focus of this therapy is not about determining who is right or wrong. Instead, it’s about taking the time to understand the patterns between you, how each person protects themselves, and identifying what each partner may need to feel safer, heard, and more connected.

How I work with couples

I don't take sides but I will challenge you both.
I slow the conversation down so both people can be heard.
I help you notice the pattern rather than blaming one person.
I work inclusively with different genders, sexualities and relationship structures.
I can support couples at all stages - whether they want to get stronger, want to repair, those who are considering separation and those who have already decided to be apart.

Couples Therapy Saffron Walden

Please reach me at mm@madeleinemansfield.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Yes. I offer couples therapy and relationship therapy in person in Saffron Walden.


No. Some couples come when things feel very difficult, while others come because they want to understand patterns earlier and protect the relationship.


No. My role is to support the relationship process and help both people feel heard, while also paying attention to safety, power and emotional impact.


That doesn't mean I won't challenge. As with all the therapy I provide, part of my role is to be a mirror to help you see patterns that might be unhelpful. 


Yes. I welcome LGBTQ+ couples and partners from a range of relationship structures and backgrounds, including open relationships, polyamory and relationship anarchy.


Yes. Therapy can offer a structured space to explore the relationship, what has happened, what each person wants, and whether repair or separation feels right.


If separation has already been agreed, therapy can offer a space to discuss next steps such as formally ending the relationship, communication regarding family or children and how to develop new 'ground rules' for the future. 


Couples therapy and relationship therapy sessions are usually 80 minutes and cost £100 per session.
