Services
Counselling
Our counselling services address specific life challenges through structured sessions focusing on problem-solving and emotional support. We employ cognitive behavioural techniques and solution-focused approaches to help clients develop coping strategies. Sessions typically last 50 minutes with flexible scheduling options available.
Psychotherapy
Long-term psychotherapy explores deep-seated patterns and childhood experiences affecting current behaviour. Using psychodynamic and transpersonal approaches, we work with clients to understand unconscious processes. This service addresses complex issues like chronic depression and personality disorders through weekly sessions.
EMDR Therapy
Specialised EMDR therapy processes traumatic memories using bilateral stimulation techniques. Sessions last 70-90 minutes and address PTSD symptoms, attachment trauma, and chronic pain conditions. Our therapist holds advanced EMDR training from accredited institutions.
Couples Counselling
Couples therapy addresses relationship breakdowns and communication issues through structured sessions. We offer both standard 50-minute sessions and intensive Saturday workshops. The service helps partners develop emotional safety and resolve long-standing conflicts.
Telephone Counselling
Remote therapy services maintain therapeutic continuity for clients unable to attend in-person sessions. This service particularly benefits international clients and those with mobility challenges. Sessions follow the same therapeutic framework as face-to-face meetings.
