ADULTS

Individual psychotherapy / counselling

The aim of my work is to promote the personal, social, educational, career, and overall well- being of those with whom I work. I do so through the provision of therapy/ counselling. The American Psychological Association (APA, 2018) defines psychotherapy as a “psychological service provided by a trained professional that primarily uses forms of communication and interaction to assess, diagnose, and treat dysfunctional emotional reactions, ways of thinking, and behaviour patterns”. Please see ‘How I Work’ for more information on how I work with adults.

Parental consultations and guidance

Parenting can be incredibly challenging and it is the one job in the world where there is no manual or training provided. At times, it may be useful for parents to seek the input of an outside person, who understands child development and is not emotionally involved, to offer insights.
