Ellie’s coaching service, Coupld, supports committed couples to look after their relationship in a fresh, engaging and empowering way. She’s working to break down the stigma surrounding relationship support by putting the emphasis on proactive maintenance, which is approachable and even… fun. You can think of Coupld like a gym for your relationship - minus the sweating!

After completing her degree in Experimental Psychology at Oxford University, she became a secondary school teacher - but her passion for understanding people and relationships led her instead towards qualifications in counselling and coaching. She believes in the power of happy fulfilling relationships and regards relationship care as the missing piece in the wellness puzzle.

When Ellie was pregnant she couldn’t find much targeted relationship support to help her and her husband navigate the changes to come. Despite her relationship knowledge and expertise, she found early parenthood the hardest ‘season’ of her marriage and it set a fire in her to help other couples prepare.

As well as private couples coaching, Ellie runs the Pre-Baby Relationship Bootcamp, a seven week group course dedicated to preparing couple relationships for the rollercoaster ride of parenthood. Think: sharing the new load, prioritising ‘us’, communication when under stress (and sleep deprivation!), exploring changes in physical intimacy and much more!
