Dominic Decker: British-registered psychotherapist & Relationship Counsellor

Anxiety Master helps you think clearly when relationship strain or a breakup has unsettled your judgement.

It is built for two situations:

deciding whether a relationship can continue,

and regaining stability after a relationship ends.

When a relationship comes under strain, pressure rises, and clear judgement is harder to hold. The body tightens. Thoughts loop. Reactions sharpen. Decisions begin to feel urgent, yet harder to trust.

People often swing between acting too quickly and avoiding important decisions altogether. Events remain unresolved and harder to read.

After a relationship ends, a structure that once organised daily life falls away. Roles, routines and points of reference disappear. It is harder to know where you stand, what mattered, and who you are without the relationship in place.

In both situations, one concern sharpens:

Will I look back and regret not only what happened, but how I responded under pressure?

If you recognise yourself here, the way you proceed matters. Not because you must act quickly, but because emotional pressure can make clear judgement harder to access.

When pressure distorts your reading of the situation, it becomes easier to act in ways that feel right in the moment but do not hold up over time.

This site offers two clear places to begin. Start with the one that matches where you are now.

Still in the relationship

Go to In a Relationship

For when your relationship is ongoing and under pressure. You are trying to decide whether it can continue.

After the relationship has ended

Go to After a Relationship Ends

For when your relationship is over and your footing, judgement, or sense of self is unsettled.


I write from long therapeutic experience with people at these points, where emotions run high, decisions carry weight, and careful judgement matters.
