Adult relationships, in families or not, can be complex and demanding. Whilst close relationships with others offer the possibility of our greatest happiness, they also offer opportunities for our worst behaviour and greatest sadness.

It is neither a sign of failure, nor very unusual, to seek help from an impartial outsider when things get too difficult to manage in a close relationship. Couple counsellors are specifically trained to understand the dynamics between people, support them in resolving conflicts, and open up channels for effective communication. They do not seek to direct the couple - but to offer a consistent, thoughtful and unbiased ear through times of difficulty.

I have been a counsellor for over 20 years and have always worked with couples as well as individuals. I undertook training in sex therapy and couple counselling, and am co-author of a book which helps readers think about the ways men and women respond sexually to each other (The Good Sex Book: Paul Brown & Chris Kell).

In an earlier part of my career, I worked for the Albany Trust in London and have maintained an interest in, and respect for, the many different kinds of relationships which the gay, lesbian and bisexual communities have developed out of adversity and creativity.
