Psychotherapy and Counselling
Do you know that those who take care of others are often the last ones to take care of their own emotional health?
Do you find it difficult to accept your emotional experiences because someone .. somewhere .. has it worse?
Are you the person others confide in or find it difficult to find your space when you need to unload?
Do you find that people just don’t seem to know what to say when they see you struggle?
Does it ever feel like everyone else somehow has it all figured out? That you’re trying to do all that the world demands but if feels like too much? Do you feel overwhelmed, inadequate, exhausted and are questioning yourself – your ability to cope and juggle it all?
Do people say you overthink or are too sensitive?
Do you experience difficulty trusting your judgement in relationships? See red flags but ignore them? Are you uncomfortable setting boundaries in your relationships and feel you get hurt as a result?
Do you find yourself hiding your pain but feeling like you are barely holding on? Managing to function but no one else knows how you really feel inside?
Individual, couples and family counselling and psychotherapy can help increase understanding of emotions and allow you to feel more confident in your ability to manage them.
Our inner voice plays an enormous role in our self-worth. Our thoughts and perceptions have the power to define how we experience ourselves in any situation or relationship. Therapy provides a safe space to explore what we think and how we came to believe it. It is an opportunity to consider new perceptions and ideas and increase your overall sense of well-being.

Working with a Therapist
It’s ok to want to talk with someone. Therapy can help increase understanding of emotions and allow you to feel more confident in your ability to manage them. It is our hope to provide a comfortable place for people to explore feelings that are difficult to share anywhere else.
Counselling with a psychotherapist provides a space to explore feelings of discomfort. Working with one of our therapists always starts with a free Meet & Greet.
