Natalie Hepworth

I’m Natalie, a Relationship Therapist based in SW London, specialising in working with parents (couples, co-parents and single/individual parents). I work with clients on their relationship issues to:

• Adjust to parenthood and changing roles throughout the life cycle
• Improve communication
• Manage conflict and parenting decisions
• Deepen connection and intimacy
• Repair and recover from infidelity, betrayal and other crises
• Explore how childhood and past experiences affect how they relate, communicate and care for each other in the present
• Manage separation, co-parenting and blended families
• Navigate dating and building healthy relationships as a single parent

Whether you parent together, separately or alone, your own romantic relationships can have a significant impact and be impacted by your role as a parent. Together we’ll explore how patterns in your relationships show up, where they’ve come from and how you can do things differently. We’ll do this with curiosity rather than criticism, and with responsibility rather than blame.

Therapy with me is active and collaborative. I’ll listen with patience and sensitivity, while also asking questions to dig deeper and even challenge some ideas. We might experiment with practical strategies or exercises you can try out to see what works best for you. At the same time, our work will involve understanding and accepting yourself fully, including the parts you may find uncomfortable, undesirable or ‘bad’. For couples, going through this process together can bring about deep connection and long-lasting change.

I have day time and evening availability, so please get in touch to book a session or visit my website to find out more.
