The Relationship Works
Couples Therapy in the Heart of Cardiff & Monmouth
Jack and Catherine are highly trained integrative therapists with specialist knowledge in specific areas of mental health and how these can impact on relationships .
Jack Rochon
Jack moved from Camden Town to Monmouthshire in 2003. He has been immersed in lecturing, researching and client counselling ever since.
'Personally, I have to work hard to maintain all my relationships in some kind of healthy shape. Even Dude my labradoodle gets depressed if I don't look after his needs too! I guess my learning is the same as everyone else's - strive to live creatively while attending to my connection with self and others'.
Psychotherapy can help us to be more present in the moment, more authentic in relationship and show us how to unhook some of those troublesome triggers from the past that can threaten a meaningful and loving meeting of two subjectivities.
Specialist therapists experienced in mental health issues form a core part of the expertise available at the The Relationship Works. Their biographies are available by request and cover areas such as abuse, depression, anxiety, bi-polar, autism, sexual dysfunction, gender identification, OCD, PTSD & many other relationship specific issues.

Catherine Jones
Catherine has been counselling since qualifying in 2012 and works with individuals and couples who are experiencing difficulties in their lives and relationships.
She lives with her family and strives to maintain meaningful relationships in the middle of a busy life.
Catherine's Masters research concerned the issues faced by people who are in a relationship with a partner on the autistic spectrum and her ongoing PhD studies continues to explore this important and little understood area .
'I believe passionately that fulfilling relationships are possible for such couples and often it's only small adjustments in understanding and letting go of traditional ideas of what a relationship should be that are necessary to unlock the rich resources present in these unique and unconventional relationships.'
Catherine's commitment to resourcing couples and individual clients to build on their strengths and work with their unique experiences and perspectives forms the core of her practice.
