Psychotherapy

Also known as ‘talk therapy, psychotherapy is the treatment of mental health conditions by talking through complex emotional challenges with a trained professional, like me. 

 

Whether it’s an immediate issue or long-standing and complex, you’re welcome to speak openly in a supportive environment where I will always remain objective, neutral, and non-judgmental. 

​

I am trained and experienced in multiple psychotherapy modalities and provide short-term, medium-term and long-term psychotherapy. 

 

I help children and adults with:

 

• Anxiety

• Depression.

• Child behavioural issues

• Relationship issues

• The transition to motherhood

• Parental divorce

• Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

• Grief and loss

• Personality disorders​

• Postnatal Depression, Perimenopausal Depression (hormonal depression)

• School issues, such as school refusal.

​

​What to expect from a session:

 

• Psychotherapy can be conducted in an individual, family, couple, or group setting

• Sessions are typically held once a week or twice a week.

• Sessions should ideally be held consistently (at the same time and day for weekly therapy).

• Both the patient and the therapist need to be actively involved for effective treatment

• Psychotherapy can be short-term, to deal with immediate issues, or it can continue for months or years to treat long-standing and complex issues.

A Safe Space

​

Psychotherapy is always confidential. While patients share personal feelings and thoughts, intimate physical contact with a therapist is never appropriate or acceptable. Building a trusting and respectful relationship between patient and therapist is key.
