We started couples therapy with Counsellor Roopak at a time when our marriage was going through a challenging phase. Although we love each other deeply, issues around family dynamics, particularly involving in-laws, had created communication gaps, trust issues, and unresolved conflicts. We had reached a point where finding a way forward felt difficult.

Our experience with TLT and Roopak has been genuinely positive. His approach, based on the Gottman institution and the practical tools he shares have helped us understand not just each other but also our own patterns, reactions, and deeper emotions behind conflicts.

We’ve learned to look within ourselves rather than simply blame or criticize each other. We are applying these learnings in our everyday lives through healthier communication, small positive rituals, and a conscious effort to appreciate each other.

It’s only been a few months, and we’re still learning, but the improvement in our conversations and how we handle conflicts is noticeable. Most importantly, the connection we felt we were losing is slowly coming back.

We’re truly grateful to Roopak for his guidance. I’d highly recommend couples therapy to anyone who loves their partner but feels stuck in recurring conflicts. Sometimes, the right guidance can help you understand each other all over again.

We thought of resorting to therapy when we both were feeling low and helpless in our marriage. We started with few hopes and many doubts, but as the sessions progressed, we began seeing a shift in our attitude towards our partner and ourselves. We started introspecting a lot rather than just blaming each other. We put conscious effort into correcting the small behavioural issues that prevented us from connecting and freely expressing our deeper feelings. Gradually, we felt our relationship become more open and respectful. Note that this will only work if both partners are open and dedicated to building a healthier relationship with 100% trust in the process. If you go in with that attitude, you will be surprised by the results and gain something that no money can buy.
I highly recommend this for couples struggling in their relationships. In fact, I would recommend it not just for them, but even for those who are happy in their marriage; you will be surprised on a daily basis by how many things we unconsciously do wrong in a marriage.

The Little Things came into our lives at a time when we really needed the support, and it genuinely felt like a lifesaver.
Sophia is not only an amazing therapist, but more importantly, a wonderful human being. We have been attending couples therapy with her for the past year, and the sessions have been incredibly helpful for both of us.
She has a way of making even difficult conversations feel light, comfortable, and easier to understand and process. Sophia is extremely patient, a great listener, and her ability to understand both perspectives without judgement is something we truly appreciate. She has helped us navigate our issues with much more clarity and understanding.
We would wholeheartedly recommend Sophia and The Little Things to any couple going through challenges, whether big or small. It has been a genuinely refreshing and positive experience for us, and we are very grateful for the support and guidance we have received.

W e gained ways to improve communication .It's rare to find a therapist  who don't simply  give advice, but truly understands what therapy is about.

Sophie was recommended to me by a family member and my husband and I have been doing therapy for about a year. She's very thorough in her methods to understand the couple, the problem areas and finds out ways for the solution to reveal itself. At no point during the sessions did we feel blamed or judged, it was always about 'us'. Although initially it did feel like things were slow, now I can confidently say - trust the process. We are at a place now which we haven't been in for a very very long time and this has been possible only because of the correct mentoring coupled with our efforts. We were provided with numerous tools and frameworks to guide us through our marriage and that is also helping us a lot. Would definitely recommend TET and Sophie to anyone looking for some help in the relationship.

To anyone considering working with 'The Little Things', I cannot recommend them highly enough. When my husband and I first began our sessions, we were in a place of deep disconnect. We had been separated for two full years. The distance between us felt impossible to bridge. While we wanted to heal, we weren't entirely sure if our marriage could survive. Today, I am writing this review from the home we are once again sharing. The transformation we have experienced is nothing short of life-changing, and we owe so much of it to the guidance, patience, and expertise we received in this office.

The Little Things bases its practice on the Gottman Method, and they are absolute masters at applying these concepts to real, messy human lives. Instead of just letting us vent or spin our wheels in endless arguments, they gave us a concrete, science-based framework to rebuild our relationship from the ground up. When we learned that our foundational friendship and trust needed serious repair, our therapist systematically helped us rebuild our commitment to one another in a way that felt entirely safe and highly structured.

One of the most impactful parts of our therapy was learning to identify and eliminate destructive communication habits. For years, those habits had driven us apart. Roopak gently but firmly held us accountable, teaching us how to replace those habits with relationship-affirming ones. They didn't just tell us what we were doing wrong; they equipped us with the exact tools to do it right.

After two years of living apart, we had completely forgotten how to notice or respond to each other's emotional needs. Through guided exercises and incredibly empathetic counseling, we were able to find our way back to true intimacy. What makes Roopak so exceptional is their ability to remain completely neutral while making both of us feel entirely heard, respected, and deeply validated.

Couples therapy is incredibly hard work, and there were sessions that tested us. But because of the environment our therapist created, we always left the session feeling like we were on the same team, rather than opponents. The Gottman tools we learned weren't just theories; they became the daily practices that brought us back under the same roof. We now have a shared language to navigate conflict, and we actually understand how to repair things when we inevitably stumble.

Living together again after a two-year separation is a massive transition, but we are stepping into this new chapter with confidence, love, and a fortified partnership. If your marriage feels broken, if you are living apart, or if you feel like you've tried everything without success, please make an appointment here. Roopak didn't just help us save our marriage; they helped us build a brand new, healthier, and much stronger one. We will be forever grateful.

After a few difficult years of marriage after several attempts at counselling followed by many  months of separation from my wife, when I didn’t know what to do, I came to ‘The Little Things’ after having researched it on the web.  Little did I know that they would help me far above my expectations!

Roopak facilitated a highly systematic restorative journey, utilizing his profound expertise in the Gottman method to rebuild our marriage. Through thorough teaching and practical exercises, he provided a *cohesive framework* of principles and techniques essential for navigating a fulfilling partnership. We were able to recall, relate, and put into practice the principles taught.  His clear, methodical approach successfully brought us back together in just six months, equipping us with the tools necessary for long-term relational health.  Roopak was committed to remain an active listener, neutral mediator, and an expert facilitator between me and my wife in all the sessions.  He was extremely patient.  He shared many personal stories/incidents with us to make us relate to the principles well - something that many therapists don't do.

I would like to emphasize the importance of the structured program for mentoring they have that can span many sessions.  It is similar to physical therapy where after the initial diagnosis (intake session), they come up with a roadmap of treatment that can last for several months.  It is this that helped to bring back our marriage to health.  Therapy offered on a session-by-session basis without a roadmap in place won't be effective - I have been there.

At the end of the program, it was clear to me why Roopak said that they don’t take on cases where only one of the two partners is present for the therapy.  Without the other, it is impossible to learn and successfully practice the principles taught and to build back the marriage - both must be present.  There are therapists who encourage solo attendance saying that improving one partner alone helps the marriage - my experience is that it does not.

‘The Little Things’ is a gem specializing in couples’ therapy.  NRI couples would find them very suitable because they understand Indian cultural nuances very well unlike their international counterparts. Their package price might seem a comparatively high, but so is their deep specialization in and dedication towards couples therapy and relationship healing!  They also  approach therapy with a resolve and responsibility to put your marriage back on track.

Roopak keeps attending various workshops and trainings throughout the year to keep himself updated/rejuvenated to be an excellent therapist.

Thank you!  I am grateful that I chose 'The Little Things'.

I clearly remember the “ship” analogy: such a unique and relatable way to help us understand the journey and structure of our sessions. Each session was not just therapeutic, but also deeply educative and, in many ways, transformative. Over time, it genuinely helped reduce the differences between me and my wife.

In today’s world, especially in a love marriage, there’s often an unspoken pressure to keep the relationship exciting, transparent, and always “perfect.” Through my sessions with Roopak Nedumpilly, I felt truly heard, understood, and emotionally lighter. His introduction to the Gottman Method gave us practical tools and a structured approach to navigate the challenges in our relationship more effectively.

Today, whether it’s emotional connection or physical intimacy, I feel far more at ease handling day-to-day misunderstandings and unmet expectations with my wife. There’s a sense of clarity and calm that wasn’t there before.

Roopak is incredibly empathetic and intentional in his approach. He ensures consistent progress through thoughtful follow-ups and keeps you aligned on the path of real transformation.

If you’re looking for a couples therapist, marriage counselor, or relationship coach who combines empathy with proven frameworks, I would highly recommend him.
