Tim Rice

I’m a relationship counsellor who works with both couples and individuals to help them improve communication, rebuild trust, and navigate life’s challenges with greater understanding and resilience.

For couples, I provide a space to:

  • Rekindle closeness and connection when a relationship has started to drift.
  • Explore whether to stay together or separate - and how to make that decision with clarity and compassion.
  • Manage separation or divorce constructively, often with referrals from family lawyers, with particular care for the wellbeing of children.

For individuals, my work often focuses on:

  • Understanding relationship patterns and emotional responses.
  • Building confidence and resilience during times of stress, change, or loss.
  • Finding balance between work, family, and personal wellbeing.

In addition to counselling, I offer therapeutic supervision for family lawyers - providing a supportive space to reflect on the emotional pressures of working with separating couples and families. These sessions often include discussions about managing stress, maintaining perspective, and nurturing life outside of work. “Supervision” in this context isn’t hierarchical - it’s a collaborative, one-to-one space for reflection, growth, and wellbeing.

I also work as a family consultant, helping lawyers manage the emotional dynamics that can arise between clients during complex family matters.

My approach is integrative, drawing from several therapeutic models - including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) - to tailor each session to the unique needs of my clients. The relationship we build together is central to the process.

Before training as a therapist, I worked as a commissioning editor at The Times and as a secondary school teacher in England and the Far East. I hold a Master’s degree in Modern English Literature and a Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE).

Whatever your situation, my philosophy remains the same: it’s always better to talk.




Different personalities.
Shared Ethos.
