Therapy Services

At some point in everyone’s life, they may reach a stage where they feel lost, stuck, alienated, fearful or confused. Sometimes these feelings manifest into stress, burnout, relationship problems, depression or anxiety. Individual Psychotherapy gives you the tools to be able to understand and cope with these feelings while offering you the solutions to change your life and engage in it more fully.

Everyone comes to therapy for a different reason. Maybe a relationship conflict with a family member, a partner, or another loved one is causing you pain, or a specific event in your life has triggered unfamiliar emotions. Perhaps you’re dealing with a major loss; navigating a ‘positive-yet-challenging’ life transition; or simply feeling stuck.

Our psychologists and counsellors are trained in a number of different psychotherapeutic techniques and theoretical frameworks; we do not utilise one particular approach or method. We feel that it is important to use a mix of approaches that are determined by the particular needs, personal styles and goals of our clients.

Intimate relationships are difficult. Often, even though we decide to commit ourselves to someone else and love them, we inevitably face conflicts and challenges. Couples therapy can be helpful to any couple experiencing tension, stress, conflicts or challenges in connection with their relationship. For couples that experience conflicts and encounter difficulties in communication, therapy gives them the tools they need to resolve conflicts and improve their relationship. Through couples therapy, you and your partner can learn to communicate better, negotiate differences, problem solve and even argue in a healthier way.

The focus of couples therapy and marriage counselling is to help you and your partner better understand what’s really going on, and to give each of you the freedom and space to speak honestly and be heard differently. With help, conversation can flow easier, topics can be broached that were unreachable before, and resolution can become a reality. Read more about healthy relationships or pre marriage counselling.

Online therapy, also known as e-therapy, involves providing mental health services and support over the internet. Online therapy offers access to mental health treatment to people who may be unable to come in to the clinic for face to face sessions.

Individuals who are unable to attend face-to-face sessions for various reasons, such as a physical or mental illness or time constraints due to work schedules, may find online therapy a useful alternative to traditional psychotherapy settings.

Since you will be attending therapy sessions online in the comfort of your own home, you can often schedule your therapy sessions for times that are the most convenient for you. All you need is a good internet connection and a private and quiet space at the time of your session.
