Counselling and psychotherapy are forms of talk therapy. Therapy involves a unique relationship where the therapist is there solely to help you with the difficulty that is bringing you to therapy. You may, for instance, want to feel more meaning and purpose, deal with a harmful behavior that you're struggling to change, or deal with stuck or confusing patterns that keep playing out in your friendships or relationships. Seeing a therapist can help you with a huge range of life's challenges.

Your therapist will ask you questions that will help you to understand much more deeply the automatic patterns in the ways that you think, feel and behave. Understanding these patterns and the way they relate to the problems you're struggling with, is a lot of the healing journey. Therapy doesn't necessarily involve spending many hours talking about your childhood or your relationships with your parents.

It's also not about getting advice that you could read in a book. It's an alive, dynamic, surprising process of discovery that takes place in a relationship of curiosity, respect, and lack of judgement. Therapy can sometimes feel like hard work - it does take effort from both the therapist and client! It's worth it, because this effort can lead to lasting change, and ultimately a life that is easier than just putting up with the problems that you started therapy with.

"In therapy we help people, through moment to moment awareness in the session, to notice what's happening right now that contributes to their presenting problems. By identifying these patterns, being curious about them and starting to see how they no longer serve them, profound and lasting transformation can occur in real time."

The style of therapy that we offer helps to get to the cause of the depression so that you can feel better - and keep feeling better. |
