Anxiety and Depression

Anxiety and Depression

Anxiety and depression are common but highly treatable conditions. Through evidence-based therapies such as CBT, mindfulness, and person-centred approaches—within a trauma-informed, attachment-aware framework—counselling supports relief, resilience, and emotional balance.
Trauma-Informed Therapy

Trauma-Informed Therapy

Unprocessed trauma often remains stored within the body, manifesting as stress, anxiety, muscle tension, sleep difficulties, or emotional numbness. Over time, it can alter how you experience the world and connect with others. Do you find it hard to feel safe, struggle with racing thoughts, or feel drained and detached from yourself? Trauma-informed therapy provides a compassionate environment to ease these effects, rebuild a sense of security, and foster healing through methods like Trauma-Focused CBT, mindfulness, and attachment-based approaches.
Anger Management

Anger Management

Anger is a natural, powerful emotion — a signal that something needs attention. Rather than suppressing or reacting impulsively to anger, effective anger management is about understanding its roots and transforming it into a source of insight and strength. Through therapy, you can learn to recognize early warning signs, uncover underlying triggers, and develop healthier ways to express and channel anger. This process not only reduces conflict but also promotes self-awareness, emotional regulation, and improved relationships. Anger management isn’t about eliminating anger—it’s about harnessing it constructively to foster personal growth and positive change.
Individual Counselling

Individual Counselling

Individual counselling provides a confidential and collaborative space to explore emotional challenges, relational patterns, and foster personal growth. Drawing on evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), person-centred practice, and mindfulness, sessions are tailored to meet your unique needs. With a trauma-informed and attachment-focused lens, therapy supports deeper insight into how past experiences shape present difficulties. Creative modalities such as art-based interventions may be integrated where helpful, offering alternative pathways to healing and self-understanding. This is a space for meaningful change, grounded in empathy, clinical rigour, and respect for your individual journey.
Youth Counselling

Youth Counselling

Youth counselling offers a safe, non-judgmental space for young people to explore emotions, build resilience, and navigate challenges such as anxiety, identity, relationships, and school stress. Grounded in trauma-informed and attachment-based frameworks, sessions draw on Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), person-centred approaches, and mindfulness. Art-based interventions may also be used to support expression where words may fall short. With a focus on connection, emotional safety, and personal growth, counselling helps young people feel seen, heard, and supported as they move through this pivotal stage of life.
Couple Counselling

Couple Counselling

Relationships can be a source of deep connection—but they can also face stress, miscommunication, or unresolved conflict. Couples therapy provides a supportive space to explore patterns, improve communication, rebuild trust, and strengthen emotional bonds. Whether you’re navigating a life transition, feeling disconnected, or just want to deepen your relationship, this work can help you reconnect with empathy, clarity, and mutual respect.
