Individual And Couples Psychotherapy
I treat adults and couples in a variety of presenting issues such as trauma, depression, anxiety, adjustment, grief, general stress, relationship problems etc. I also work with life changing events, such as divorce, retirement, parenthood, retrenchment, etc. I believe that addressing present issues through therapy is hugely beneficial, and also empowering individuals and couples to manage and reduce the recurrence of psychological issues.
I use a variety of different treatment modalities, that have a solution-focused framework, that best suits the individual or couple and problem presented. My focus is teaching people the necessary skills, both at an individual level and within their relationships, to be able to deal with current and future life issues in an empowering way.
