I enjoy working with people who want to explore themselves deeply, to ask questions about their internal world and make sense of how they relate to others, themselves and the outer world. You may well present with depression or anxiety or be struggling in a relationship. You want to engage therapeutically and gain insight into your relational dynamics and be able to make links between past early relationships with parents or family of origin and how these experiences have predisposed you to relating to others and the world in a unique way. You seek greater freedom from emotional conditioning and to know the fullness and joy of life.

Everyone has ups and downs in their journey of life, but sometimes you need additional support to navigate particular low points. Your thinking may be cyclical, so addressing the problem from multiple angles, with various lenses, can be the breakthrough that is needed. I work with a Humanistic and Positive Psychology framework that sees you as whole and focuses on your strengths. You are not your trauma, your grief, or your diagnosis. I want to help you to improve your quality of life and to fulfill your potential. I also use Resilience coaching to look at your mental, physical and emotional needs, to identify growth areas.

Therapy is a unique, sometimes difficult journey, but it is also empowering. Those embarking on their therapeutic journey may want a variety of different things. Perhaps you'd like to receive some guidance in a certain area of your life, maybe you wish for a different perspective or clarity on a situation, or you might just want to get some things off of your chest. All of these (and more) are perfectly valid reasons for seeking counselling.

Waitlist for new clients
Couple work often begins with addressing conflict: how communication isn't working and causing distress. In work with individual clients, themes of identity (a mismatch between how you feel and how you want to be perceived by others), relational issues (friction between people) and life transitions (adjusting to significant change) are often the focus. When counselling goes well, the client has the opportunity to understand why they think certain things or behave in certain ways. Self knowledge is the under-structure for improvement in relationships with others.

Infertility Counsellors

How can infertility affect couples and their relationship?

Clients who are dealing with infertility may experience conflict and communication problems. It’s not unusual for shame, blame, and guilt to arise in cases of infertility, whether the source of the problem is one partner or both. This means that clients are upset and pulling away from their partner just when they need them the most. Some clients may find it difficult to spend time around friends and family who are pregnant. Friends and family can also make hurtful comments that increase tension during this time.

How does therapy for infertility issues work?

The therapist will begin by gathering information about the client or couple and make a treatment plan for their specific concerns. In addition to addressing common mental health issues, such as anxiety, depression, and trauma reactions or PTSD, therapists can help clients improve their decision-making and deal with stressors unique to infertility. Some examples include coping with the “two-week wait” before a pregnancy test, the distress associated with a failed attempt or miscarriage, and the shame and blame sometimes associated with reproductive concerns.

What type of therapy is best for infertility issues?

Many therapists offer psychotherapy for individuals and couples who are dealing with infertility issues. Some helpful therapeutic approaches include cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), which can aid clients in reframing negative thoughts about their situation. Expressive writing and art therapy can help clients process difficult feelings. Clients might also benefit from group therapy to experience support from others who are dealing with the same problems.

How long does therapy for infertility issues take?

There is no set length for therapy that addresses infertility or reproductive concerns. Some clients might find it helpful to continue therapy during their pregnancy to have healthy ways to cope with any associated stress, anxiety, depression, or trauma. Some clients who decide not to pursue fertility treatments might benefit from the support of a therapist. The duration of therapy varies depending on the individual client’s specific needs and goals.
