Our team of counsellors provides high-quality, individualised care and treatment tailored to your unique needs. Equipped with diverse qualifications and experience, our counsellors attend to a wide range of mental health presentations using various therapeutic approaches. We uphold ethical principles and trauma-informed practice, maintaining client autonomy, respect, and collaboration to meet your needs and promote wellbeing.

Our counsellors can assist individuals across all ages and life circumstances, including but not limited to:

• Children, adolescents, and families
• Relationship counselling (individual and couples)
• Trauma, including PTSD and CPTSD
• Sexual assault
• Anxiety and stress
• Depression
• Grief and loss
• Mental health conditions (ADHD, OCD, ASD, personality disorders, schizophrenia)
• Disordered eating
• Life transitions
• Self-esteem challenges
• Addictions and substance use disorders
• LGBTQIA+ support, sexuality and gender exploration
• Challenging behaviours

Our team  are 'eclectic' using a range of therapeutic styles to engage with each individual in a way that works best for them. While many clients respond well to talk-based interventions, all our therapists can integrate play, art, somatic, and sensory-motor components into sessions to ensure you maximise your outcomes and find healing in the way that feels most natural to you.

Some clients benefit from short-term intensive therapy rather than sessions spread over longer periods. We offer flexible intensive programs that can be delivered one-on-one or in small groups, including overnight and weekend-long therapeutic retreats. These intensives are tailored according to participant numbers and individual needs, providing concentrated support when it's most beneficial.

Intensive therapy can be particularly effective for those wanting to make significant breakthroughs, work through specific challenges, or when traditional weekly sessions aren't meeting your needs. These intensives are especially appropriate for EMDR treatment and when relationships are in crisis, allowing for concentrated focus and deeper processing without the interruption of time between sessions. Please reach out to discuss further if this approach interests you—we'd love to explore how an intensive program might support your healing journey- no two intensives are the same so this will be entirely tailored to your needs.

Our team's specialisation in behavioural challenges and building emotional regulation skills provides a unique opportunity for clients whose behaviours may inhibit access to mainstream care or STA. Having qualified therapists who understand complex behaviours means we can provide respite and STA services where others might not be able to offer the same level of therapeutic support.

This specialised approach ensures that individuals with challenging behaviours receive both the care they need and the therapeutic intervention that addresses underlying issues, creating a more comprehensive and effective support experience.

And have intensive therapeutic intervention with a qualified and experienced therapist- that is a support that is value for money!

  EMDR is an evidence based Trauma Treatment that utilises bilateral stimulation to reduce distress and negative core beliefs that develop when we experience traumatic events. EMDR requires specialist training, extensive experience and supervision. and we are lucky enough to have an EMDRAA accredited therapist to guide you through a scientifically proven process that helps rewire your brain's response to traumatic memories. EMDR is a safe, effective, and non-invasive approach that can bring relief from PTSD, anxiety, depression, phobias and addiction much quicker than talk therapy alone. EMDR can be integrated with a range of other Therapeutic styles to get the best outcomes. EMDR may be utilised in standard 50 minutes sessions, however, 90 minute sessions are often recommended for EMDR to ensure processing is not interrupted so please advise upon referral if this is is your preference. Here is a short video explaining EMDR and it's purpose in therapy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1IPsBPH2M1U
