A SPACE THAT'S YOURS
WHY THERAPY?
We are often unable to hold someone else’s emotions when we cannot face our own. It is crucial to give yourself a space where you can become vulnerable and have the opportunity to explore the experiences that have shaped you. This allows you to understand your past and how these experiences might still be having an impact on your lived experiences. This awareness, places the control in your hands.

Components of Therapy
INDIVIDUAL COUNSELLING
Understanding You
Give yourself a space where you can become vulnerable and have the opportunity to explore the experiences that have shaped you. This allows you to understand your past and how these experiences might still be having an impact on your lived experiences.
COUPLES COUNSELLING
In this Together
Any relationship can benefit from counselling. It does not signify problems or danger, but is a reflective space that can allow partners to reflect on their own behaviour and how this contributes to the dynamics within the relationship. Whether it is raising children, understanding boundaries and exploring financial differences, counselling offers a safe space for reflection and expression.
SUBSTANCE USE
What is the relief you hope to find?
“Not all addictions are rooted in abuse or trauma, but I do believe they can all be traced to painful experience. A hurt is at the centre of all addictive behaviours. It is present in the gambler, the Internet addict, the compulsive shopper and the workaholic. The wound may not be as deep and the ache not as excruciating, and it may even be entirely hidden—but it’s there. As we’ll see, the effects of early stress or adverse experiences directly shape both the psychology and the neurobiology of addiction in the brain.”
