Hello, my name is Sarah Yandell. I am a FEATF-accredited Systemic Psychotherapist for Couples and Families, having completed my qualifying training at the Hospital de Sant Pau in Barcelona in 2024. I am registered with the Registro Nacional de Psicoterapeutas (RNP-V2-4934) and accredited by the Spanish Federation of Family Therapy (FEATF)
I have my own private practice, specialising in couples therapy, based near the Sagrada Familia in central Barcelona. I work in English (native language) and Catalan (fluent) and I work with local and international clients both in person and online.
You don't have to agree about what the problem is to come to couples therapy. You don't even have to arrive with the same goals. We can start by making sense of what is happening between you. The most common issues couples bring to therapy with me include:
-TRUST & INFIDELITY
Trying to rebuild trust after infidelity or another rupture.
-SEX & INTIMACY
Struggling with sex, desire, affection, or emotional and physical intimacy.
-CLOSENESS & DISCONNECTION
Wanting different amounts of closeness or space, or feeling increasingly disconnected.
-CONFLICT & REPEATED PATTERNS
Having the same arguments over and over, or getting caught in criticism, defensiveness and withdrawal.
-LIFE CHANGES & DIFFICULT DECISIONS
Finding that parenting has changed your relationship, or feeling stuck around a major decision.
-CULTURE & DIFFERENCE
Living between cultures, or finding that differences in background, values or expectations are affecting your relationship.
