Supporting individuals and couples to rebuild trust, connection and honest communication.
Relationships can feel difficult at times.
When relationships become tense or distant, it can start to feel as though every conversation goes wrong. Relationship coaching offers a calm, practical space to understand what is happening beneath the conflict and begin moving forwards differently.
I provide in-person relationship coaching in the Cotswolds and online across the UK for people who want to strengthen their relationships through greater awareness, communication and intentional change.
What I help with:
I work with:
Couples Relationship Coaching: Support for couples wanting to improve communication, rebuild trust and strengthen emotional connection.
Individual Relationship Coaching: Support for individuals wanting to better understand relationship dynamics, communication patterns and emotional responses.

Client Testimonials
“We were arguing about the same things over and over again and honestly it was exhausting. Even small things would turn into big rows and afterwards we’d both just shut down for hours. We knew something needed to change but we didn’t know how to stop repeating the same patterns.
The coaching helped us slow things down and understand what was really going on underneath the arguments. We still disagree sometimes obviously but it doesn’t spiral in the same way anymore. We’re much better at listening to each other now and working things through without it becoming a full blown fight.
What I appreciated most was how balanced it felt. Neither of us felt blamed and we both felt properly listened to.”
— Former Client
“I was actually really nervous about starting relationship coaching because I thought it would feel awkward or like we’d just end up talking about everything we were doing wrong. But it was the complete opposite.
Before we started my partner and I could barely have a proper conversation without one of us getting angry or going silent. We’d stopped talking and it felt like we were drifting further apart every month.
Working together gave us a way to talk honestly without it turning into a fight straight away. Things feel much lighter between us now and we’re communicating in a way that feels calmer and more respectful.
What I appreciated was how comfortable and easy the sessions felt. We never felt judged and the advice actually felt realistic to use in day to day life.”
— Former Client“We’d become quite distant over the years and it started to feel more like we were just getting through life together rather than really connecting. There wasn’t one huge issue between us but we’d definitely lost some closeness.
The coaching helped us reconnect in a way that felt natural and not forced. We make more time for each other now and I feel like we actually understand each other better again.
Really appreciated the warmth and support throughout the process. Donna was very genuine and cared about us as a couple”
— Former ClientThe difference between
coaching and therapy
coaching
Future-focused and action-oriented
Strengthen communication, rebuild trust, clarify needs, improve intimacy and develop practical relationship skills
Goal setting, accountability, skill-building, exercises and practical strategies
Coaches do not diagnose or treat mental health disorders
Structured conversations, action steps and practical tools between sessions
therapy
Addressing emotional wounds, trauma, or mental health issues affecting the relationship
Often explores past experiences and emotional patterns
Therapists can diagnose and treat mental health conditions
Helps to address psychological issues and process deep emotional pain
Beneficial for individuals or couples dealing with trauma, severe conflict, mental health concerns, or deep emotional distress
Relationship coaching focuses on the present and future.
Coaching helps you develop awareness, communication skills and practical strategies to improve your relationship and move forward with greater clarity.
Therapy may be more appropriate when relationships are significantly impacted by trauma, mental health conditions or deeper emotional distress.
Why Relationship Coaching Works
Healthy relationships rarely happen by accident.
Small changes in communication, awareness and emotional understanding can significantly improve how people relate to each other.
Relationship coaching helps you build stronger foundations through practical guidance, reflection and intentional action.
My ethos
Relationships shape our lives in profound ways. When they work well, they bring connection, security and joy. When they struggle, they can leave us feeling misunderstood and disconnected.
I believe healthy relationships are built, not left to chance.
Through awareness, communication and intentional action, people can create stronger, more fulfilling connections.
My approach to relationship coaching is supportive, practical and forward-focused — helping individuals and couples develop the insight and skills needed to build relationships that thrive.
