individual therapy and therapy for women who have experienced complex trauma

Individual Therapy

Seeing a psychologist is about bettering yourself with the use of expert support and the latest science.

 

We are all a unique combination of biology and experience - the things we were born with and the things that happen to us along the way. Understanding the individual that is you, taking a collaborative approach to treatment planning and delivering compassionate therapy without judgement is what we do. 

We only utilise science backed assessment tools and evidence-based interventions that are known to work. These first line, or 'gold standard' interventions are delivered by an appropriately qualified and registered psychologist either online or in person. 

parent therapy and family therapy

Family Focused Therapies

Parenting is challenging! Parenting therapy aims to bridge the gap between knowledge and doing.  

 There are a number of evidence-based therapies designed to create happier, secure and more balanced homes.

 

Functional family therapy aims to improve family dynamics with a focus on communication, problem solving, establishing roles and boundaries and emotional responses - the goal is to create a secure and supportive environment in which all family members can thrive. 

Parenting therapy aims to give parents more strategies for managing challenging behaviour, and improving parent-child relationships. 

Couples therapy

Couples Therapy

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is an evidence-based intervention for distressed couples. The goal is to move couples from negative patterns of interaction to openness and intimacy.

 

EFT is based on adult attachment - reactive emotion stemming from attachment distress can be fast moving, challenging to contain and can keep couples stuck in negative patterns. Accessing and sharing vulnerabilities, a key to creating healthy attachment, can be challenging - this is where EFT can help couples create deeper bonds and bring distressed couples back together.
