About Neil Coburn
Qualifications and Experience
Over my ten years of clinical experience, I have helped hundreds of couples and individuals with their relationship challenges. I have a MA in Couple and Individual Therapy from the world renowned Tavistock Relationships in London. This training includes helping clients with issues around sex and intimacy. I am a fully accredited member of the BACP, one of the leading professional standards bodies in the UK. I continue to work ad hoc at Tavistock Relationships, alongside a group practice in Richmond-upon-Thames. I previously worked with The Practice in East Molesey and at Health Village Esher. In early 2025 opened my own consulting room in the heart of Esher.
My Background
Before training as a couple therapist, I had a successful career in marketing, including senior leadership roles in big companies and hands-on in a rapidly growing start up. But I had always planned to have a second career, doing something with more of a direct positive impact on people.
My Fresh Start
So, 25 years into my working life I decided on a fresh start – I embarked on training at Tavistock Relationships. I have also done extensive CPD and private reading on different approaches to couple therapy and psychotherapy in general. Helping couples improve their relationships through marriage and relationship therapy is deeply rewarding.
