Support for relationships, with care and understanding
At Cherry Tree Therapy Centre in Henley-on-Thames, we support couples and families who are finding relationships difficult, strained, or stuck.
You might be experiencing repeated conflict, communication breakdown, trust issues, or uncertainty about what happens next. Sometimes people arrive wanting to repair things; sometimes they’re unsure whether to stay or separate.
You don’t have to work that out on your own.
We offer a calm, neutral space where you can begin to make sense of what’s happening and think about the next step with support.
We work with couples and families at many different stages, including:
It’s not always clear whether counselling or mediation is the right step. Our role is to help you think that through.
Some people need space to understand what’s happening emotionally. Others need support to have structured, practical conversations about decisions, especially around separation or parenting.
We’ll take time to understand your situation and help guide you towards the kind of support that feels most appropriate.
We offer a calm, neutral space where conversations can happen safely, even when things feel tense or hard to talk about.
But just as important is how you get there.
We take time to understand what’s been happening and what you’re hoping for, and think carefully about the kind of support and the person who will best hold that. Some people are looking to repair and reconnect. Others need support to separate or co-parent with care.
Wherever you are, we’ll help you make sense of what’s needed and guide you towards an approach and a practitioner that feels right for you.
We offer:
That’s a very common question. Counselling focuses on emotional understanding, communication, and relationship patterns, while mediation is more practical and decision-focused. We’re happy to talk things through with you and help you decide which approach feels most appropriate.
That’s not uncommon. You don’t both have to be ready to start. You’re very welcome to come on your own to talk things through, and we can help you think about your options and next steps. Sometimes, one person starting can begin to shift things over time.
Fees are set by each practitioner. Relationship counsellors and family therapists typically charge from £80 to £140 per session. We can talk through current availability and fees to help you find a suitable option. Low-cost relationship counselling is available, although availability is limited.
What are the costs for family mediation?
Family mediation fees are:
MIAM (Mediation Information and Assessment Meeting): £110
Joint mediation sessions: £180
If your discussions involve arrangements for children, you may be eligible for a £500 Government mediation voucher.
If affordability is an issue, you may be able to apply for our low-cost couples counselling service. This offers reduced-fee sessions with supervised trainee or newly qualified counsellors.
We’re based in Henley-on-Thames and regularly work with couples and families from nearby areas including Marlow, Nettlebed, Sonning Common, Wargrave, and surrounding villages. Online sessions are also available.
That can happen. We take care in how we guide you, but if something doesn’t feel quite right, we’ll talk it through with you and help you find a more suitable approach or practitioner.
With a number of therapists and approaches available, it’s not always easy to know who to choose from profiles alone. You’re very welcome to get in touch or book a call, and we’ll help guide you towards the kind of support and the person that feels right.
