The Renewed Life Method

Two therapists. One relationship.

At Renewed Life, Toby and Sussan understand that every relationship is unique, and they are committed to helping couples navigate their challenges and strengthen their bonds. Their distinctive method involves initially separating partners for individual sessions according to gender. Toby works with one partner, providing insights and guidance from a male perspective, while Sussan engages with the other, offering empathy and advice from a female viewpoint. This gender-specific coaching allows each partner to explore personal issues and perspectives openly and without reservation.

The process doesn't just stop with individual sessions. Toby and Sussan believe that real progress happens when insights and growth achieved individually are brought back into the relationship. After these separate sessions, couples are reunited in joint therapy sessions where Toby and Sussan collaboratively help them integrate their new understandings and experiences. This comprehensive approach aims to foster communication, mutual understanding, and reconnection, enabling couples to revive and reinforce their relationships.

Our Service Includes

Learn the tools to thrive.

01

Individual Gender-Specific Sessions

To begin, partners are split up for individual sessions. Toby provides counselling from a male perspective, while Sussan offers insights from a female viewpoint. This allows each individual to explore and discuss issues more freely, gaining understanding and tools tailored to their perspective.

02

Joint Couple Sessions

After individual insights have been gathered and processed, couples come back together in joint sessions. Here, Toby and Sussan use their combined expertise to facilitate discussions that integrate the learnings from the individual sessions. This stage focuses on mutual understanding, effective communication, and reconnection strategies, aiming to strengthen the couple's bond.

03

Tailored Strategies and Exercises

Throughout the therapy process, Toby and Sussan implement various tailored strategies and exercises designed to address specific relationship challenges. These are aimed at improving communication, rebuilding trust, and enhancing emotional connection, ensuring that both partners feel understood and valued.

This comprehensive service is ideal for couples at any stage of their relationship who seek to deepen their connection and address specific marital or partnership challenges. Toby and Sussan's balanced, empathetic, and practical approach ensures that both partners feel supported and empowered to create lasting change.

Tried traditional therapy before and nothing ever stuck. Having two therapists in the room changed everything for us.

We tried retreats, but all the resentment has to come out of the nervous system before you can move forward.

Going into a new relationship I knew I had baggage. After the nervous system release, everything became clear. It was like the light came on.

When you showed me my past patterns were repeating, it actually made sense. After the release session I felt brand new.

I had brought a lot of past hurt into my relationship. Releasing it from my nervous system was the light bulb moment for me.

Having two therapists — one for each of us — changed the entire dynamic. This is completely different to anything else out there.

After the release session I felt like a weight I had been carrying for years just lifted. I walked out a completely different person.

As a highly sceptical person I didn’t think this would work. Three months later it is the best investment we have ever made — in our relationship and in ourselves.
