Counselling Services

Adolescent Counselling

Counselling for adolescents aged 16 and older, providing a safe, understanding space to explore the unique challenges and pressures of teenage life. Adolescence is a transformative period, marked by rapid personal growth and shifting social dynamics, and young people often face a wide array of emotional and psychological concerns, such as anxiety, low self-esteem, identity exploration, peer pressure, academic stress, bullying, depression, and social isolation.

Whether a teenager is grappling with intense academic demands, struggling with identity or self-worth, or experiencing social challenges like bullying or peer pressure, our goal is to equip them with the skills needed to thrive. We are dedicated to supporting adolescents on their journey toward emotional balance, self-acceptance, and personal growth, empowering them to make confident, positive choices that lay the foundation for a healthy and fulfilling future.

Individual Counselling/Therapy

Offering a personalised approach to therapy tailored specifically for adults facing a wide range of life challenges. Our service provides a safe and supportive environment where clients can openly explore and address issues such as trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, anger, stress, relationship difficulties, and significant life transitions. Each individual’s journey is unique, and so is therapy. By utilising a range of evidence-based techniques, including cognitive-behavioural therapy, solution focused/brief intervention techniques, and trauma-informed care, the therapeutic process aligns with the client's goals and personal experiences.

Whether you're struggling with past trauma, experiencing overwhelming stress, dealing with the loss of a loved one, or navigating a challenging life change, support is here for you. Emotional health is deeply personal, and we are committed to helping you build resilience, find clarity, and achieve a renewed sense of empowerment in your life.

Relationship Counselling

Providing compassionate and supportive counselling for couples who are seeking to strengthen and repair their relationships, or find amicable ways to successfully separate. Our couples therapy is designed to address a variety of relationship challenges, including difficulties with communication, managing extended and blended family dynamics, rebuilding trust after betrayals, navigating significant life transitions, resolving conflicts in healthy, constructive ways, and assisting with separation if this is deemed to be a necessary outcome.

Every couple’s relationship is unique, with its own set of experiences, challenges, and goals. The therapist works collaboratively with each couple to create a safe space where each partner can openly share their perspective and feelings. By using proven therapeutic methods, such as Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), the Gottman Method, and solution-focused techniques, couples are assisted in identifying underlying issues, develop effective communication strategies, and cultivate a deeper understanding of one another.

Whether you’re facing recurring arguments, struggling to reconnect, or simply hoping to strengthen your bond, we are here to provide the tools and insights needed to build a more fulfilling and resilient relationship.

Family Counselling

Offering supportive family counselling for up to three family members (siblings / parent-adult child / in-laws), to help families navigate conflict, repair strained relationships, and manage challenging life transitions. A neutral, compassionate space is provided to encourage family members to openly communicate, gain insight into each other’s perspectives, and work toward understanding and connection.

Using evidence-based techniques, we guide families in developing healthy communication patterns, building empathy, and resolving longstanding issues. Whether facing a significant life change, coping with unresolved tension, or simply striving to strengthen family bonds, our goal is to foster a harmonious environment that encourages growth, respect, and mutual support.
