Therapy Services
What is psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy offers a space to slow down and make sense of your experiences- we'll explore the thoughts, feelings, and relationships that have shaped you, helping you understand yourself with greater clarity and (hopefully) compassion.
Rather than trying to change who you are, therapy invites you to become more connected to yourself. Over time, you may begin to notice old patterns more clearly, feel less lost with difficult emotions, and find new ways of relating to yourself and those around you.
For Young Adults (16+)
You may be navigating school or university, managing family relationships, asking questions about your identity. Or simply trying to find your place in everything while so much is changing. Weekly talk sessions (usually 50 minutes) offer a consistent base to help you find out how you want to deal with these challenges and who you'd like to become. We can always work with your interests (ie. art, books, film, photography) as ways of exploring too. And know that you don't have to have everything figured out along the way.
For Couples
Relationships can change so often that they can bring up challenging, old and wounding conflicts. I offer a non-judgmental space to explore patterns of communication, navigate these conflicts, rebuild trust and intimacy, and deepen your understanding of yourselves and each other. Whether you're looking to reconnect and stay together in a more meaningful way, or to work through a difficult ending, I'll support you in facilitating whatever your relationship needs with care, acceptance and respect.
Couples sessions are usually 75 minutes long (can be adjusted down to 60-min or up to 90-min based on our assessment of your needs), allowing time for both partners to feel heard and for us to explore what may be happening beneath the surface.
"We cannot change, we cannot move away from what we are, until we thoroughly accept what we are. Then change seems to come about almost unnoticed."
Carl Rogers, On Becoming a Person, 1961
