Psychotherapy
and Counselling is "talk" therapy. It typically consists of face-to-face
meetings between the therapist and an individual or couple. Sessions are normally
50 minutes each and are usually scheduled once per week. The first few sessions
will be an assessment period where the focus will be on looking at the presenting
issue(s) and situation(s) in the context of the individual's relationship to themselves
and with others. Treatment will include explorations of ways to deal with the issues
identified. This is done by healing them, looking at new coping skills and/or to
provide a renewed focus for pursuing your life goals.

Why Psychotherapy?
Life is a journey. Some journeys are easier,
with less winding roads and obstacles along the way. Other lead us to feel hopeless,
frustrated and stressed out. A psychotherapist can help guide you through the rough
