Couple Therapy & Relationship Coaching in Málaga and Online
Couple therapy and relationship coaching in Málaga or online. Work on communication, intimacy, conflict, boundaries and emotional patterns in English, French or Spanish.
Longing for Intimacy
You’re in a relationship and you love your partner, but daily life creates distance in your relationship and you wish to bring more intimacy into your relationship.
Stuck in a loop
Your love story is stuck on repeat. You relive the same situations and the same conflicts over and over again. You want to learn to do things differently.
In a Conflictual Relationship
You’re walking on eggshells and do all that you can to avoid conflict. Your partner’s feelings take up more space than your own.
Checking Out & Love Triangle
You’ve tried and tried but nothing changed. You feel lile your relationship is over & you’re thinking of leaving. Yet… you’d prefer for it to work out.
Reconnect, communicate better, and understand what keeps repeating
You love each other, but something feels stuck.
Maybe the same conflicts keep coming back. Maybe you feel unheard, distant, criticized, emotionally alone, or afraid that the relationship is slowly slipping away.
My work helps couples and individuals understand the deeper emotional patterns behind conflict, distance and disconnection — so you can stop repeating the same painful loop and start relating differently.
Sessions are available in English, French and Spanish, online or in person in Málaga city centre.

How my approach is different
I combine Humanist Hypnotherapy, Ericksonian hypnosis, NLP, emotional release work, coaching and Polyvagal-informed nervous system regulation.
This means we don’t only talk about the problem.
We look at:
- what happens in your body during conflict
- what emotional wounds get activated
- what protective reactions take over
- what patterns repeat between you
- how to rebuild safety, clarity and connection
For couples, I often begin with a joint session, then meet each person individually when needed. Individual work helps each partner understand their own reactions, triggers and needs before returning to the relationship with more emotional clarity.
Why embark on this journey?
Because you want things to be different and your love life it too important for you to gamble on trials and errors. You are looking for a proven method and a guided journey that will help you get where you want to be, without all the guess work.
Do we have to come as a couple?
No. You can start alone. Sometimes individual work is the best way to shift the relationship dynamic.
Is this couple therapy or coaching?
It is a therapeutic coaching approach combining hypnotherapy, emotional work, nervous system regulation and practical relationship tools.
Can this help if we are close to separating?

How to get started
1. Book a Free 15-Minute Consultation
We’ll briefly discuss your situation, answer your questions, and determine whether my approach is the right fit for you and your relationship.
2. Attend Your First 90-Minute Session
You can come alone or with your partner.
This first session allows us to understand your story, identify the patterns at play, and clarify what needs to change for the relationship to move forward.
3. Follow a Personalized Treatment Plan
Based on what emerges during the first session, I will create a tailored approach adapted to your unique situation.
Depending on your needs, our work may combine Humanist Hypnotherapy, Ericksonian Hypnosis, NLP, Polyvagal-Informed Nervous System Regulation, Emotional Release Techniques, Coaching, and practical communication tools.
Some clients continue individually, while others alternate between individual and couple sessions.
4. Come Back Together
Once each person has developed greater awareness, emotional regulation, and clarity around their own patterns, we come back together to integrate the work into the relationship itself.
The goal is not simply to solve a conflict, but to create a healthier, more conscious, and more fulfilling way of relating to one another.
Testimonials
“My husband and I love each other, but have been “parents” for 10 years. I was no longer comfortable with him touching me and I didn’t know how to get us out of this distance. After only 3 sessions with Catherine, I can say that we’re on our path: Tonight we went out and came home like teenagers in love!” – Nathalie, Lyon
“I was fearing that moving forward in my relationship would mean losing my identity and the end of my personal projects. With Catherine’s help, I was able to solidify myself as a person and bring that strength into my relationship. I’ve also discovered that my personal projects can fuel my connexion with my partner. ” – – – Eva, San José
“For the first time ever, last night I was finally able to have a calm discussion with my partner. I was able to speak up and express my thoughts and needs. Because I was calm open to hear his thoughts, he was also open to hear me out. We were able to work our issue together and I now feel more confident in being able to communicate with him.”
– Marie, Paris
Embark on a journey of Self Discovery and Self Love. Give yourself the means to finally be happy.
Your relationship with your partner is a reflection of the relationship you have with yourself. If you feel unloved, unheard, or unimportant it may very well be related to how you treat yourself & own thoughts and feelings.
Once you change the way you show up for yourself and how attentive you are to your inner dialogue, the world around you can finally start to listen and offer you what you have been craving for so long.
