Our Approach
We aim to be kind, genuine and professional. We don’t try to be the experts with all the answers. We team up with you to make decisions, develop skills and take the right actions for you and your relationships. In the process, you become the expert on what works for you. That wisdom enables you to learn and grow beyond therapy.
There is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to therapy. Manuals are good for learning tools and techniques, but different people respond to different approaches. Our clinicians take the time to understand your situation and tailor support accordingly.
Our clinicians are trained in a variety of therapies, including:
Acceptance & Commitment Therapy
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
Emotion Focused Therapy
Systemic Family Therapy
Gottman Method Couples Therapy
Motivational interviewing
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy
Compassion Focused Therapy
EMDR - eye movement sensitisation reprocessing
The tools from these therapies can be powerful, but they require the foundation of an honest, open, caring and safe alliance between the therapist and the client to work.

Our Services
-
We make therapy fun and play-based so your child wants to attend, engage and grow. We partner with parents to ensure we are heading in the right direction and achieving results.
-
We help young people navigate opportunities, challenges and relationships with friends and family. We can help teens learn to balance being kind to others and being kind to themselves. We want our young people to be safe, happy and true to themselves. Counselling can facilitate their personal growth, so it works for your teen and your family.
-
Adults often seek out counselling because of symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression that are making it harder to cope . Responsibility can give life meaning but it can also wear you down. Coping strategies can reduce the stress of "adulting" but it's not the answer. Being an adult does not require you to give up on your dreams or yourself. Counselling can help you to learn skills to live a life that makes time for kindness, connection, self-care and play. It isn’t easy at the start, but it is definitely worth it.
-
Love and connection is a source of great joy when it is present and a cause of distress when it is inconsistent or absent. Our psychologists use Emotion-Focused Therapy to provide a space for couples to explore safely their emotions and concerns, heal from hurts and build a strong, safe and satisfying connection.
-
We seek to understand the emotions and points of friction between family members. Then we can help shape secure connections and strengthen the family unit. This can create a loving, supportive and safe atmosphere at home.
