During couples therapy sessions, we work together to build/rebuild, maintain and strengthen the bonds that lead to friendships, partnerships and understanding amongst couples. As a therapist-client team, we will explore varied techniques in a collaborative manner, as we aim to achieve your goals as a couple. Please feel free to book an appointment.
When working with you as an individual, all that I ask is that you approach our therapy sessions with an open mind and willingness to talk, collaborate and self-reflect. During individual sessions, I utilise a number of personalised treatment modalities. This is done while keeping your well-being as well as successful treatment in mind at all times. Please feel free to get in touch to book an appointment.
I work with families to explore their dynamics while they work collaboratively with me to connect on a deeper level. Often when a connection is made, trust, openness, understanding and empathy swiftly follow. Feel free to schedule an appointment with me so we can see what we can accomplish as a therapist-family team.
“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths.
These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern.
Beautiful people do not just happen.”
Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross
